Job Description:
As Manager of Autonomy Applications Engineering, you will lead a team of 4–5 engineers focused on developing internal demonstrations that reflect realistic customer use cases. Your team will act as the voice of the customer—building and validating Concepts of Operations (CONOPs) that demonstrate how our SDK is used in autonomy applications. Leveraging reference platforms and test environments, your team will ensure our solutions are operationally ready prior to customer engagement. In addition, the team will be responsible for developing advanced training content to help customers and internal teams gain deep proficiency in our SDK. A key motivator for the team is seeing customers successfully deploy autonomy applications in 120 days—a milestone that brings a deep sense of accomplishment and validates the team’s impact.
