Desirable

• As a Software Engineer for Developer Productivity , you will contribute to the design and evolution of the systems that support our autonomy software lifecycle—from code commit to hardware-in-the-loop testing
• You will accelerate secure software development across Applied Intuition's full simulation and validation platform by building CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and developer tooling that maintain high velocity while ensuring compliance with government security protocols, clearance requirements, and air-gapped network constraints
• Your work will directly affect the pace, safety, and reliability of autonomy development at Applied
• Build and maintain high-leverage tools and systems that empower engineering teams to develop and deploy autonomy software with greater speed, reliability, and security
• Design scalable CI/CD workflows that integrate with our autonomy-specific validation stack, including simulation, sensor modeling, and multi-agent testing
• Improve the internal developer experience through robust build systems, reproducible environments, and secure artifact management
• Support hybrid cloud and on-prem infrastructure used for large-scale simulation, ML pipelines, and real-time testing
• Partner with simulation, ML, autonomy, and security teams to deliver tailored infrastructure for their needs—while keeping systems simple, reliable, and maintainable
• Contribute to infrastructure and security compliance for customers operating in defense, classified, or other highly regulated domains
