Developer for the Autonomous Transport Deployment Platform Team

We are creating autonomous transport technology capable of navigating the city without human involvement. The number of autonomous passenger and cargo vehicles on the roads is growing, and by the end of 2027 we expect to see 20 thousand delivery robots.

Our team is responsible for delivering data (code, Docker images, maps, various resources) to the fleet, as well as configuring and launching software there. We are developing a new system that will allow scaling to the growing fleet, will work over unstable mobile networks, and will be fast and reliable.

What tasks await you

Design and development of a new deployment system You will analyze existing deployment systems (such as Kubernetes), design and develop our system considering the specifics of autonomous transport.

Adding support for new hardware platforms Hardware platforms in vehicles or robots are constantly evolving, and it is necessary to support them. Platforms may have one or several computing units, as well as specific configuration requirements.

Speeding up the deployment system The speed of deployment directly affects the speed of experiments and fleet utilization. You will need to find bottlenecks and optimize processes.
