Gatik
Gatik, the leader in autonomous middle‑mile logistics, is revolutionizing the B2B supply chain with its autonomous transportation‑as‑a‑service (ATaaS) solution and prioritizing safe, consistent deliveries while streamlining freight movement by reducing congestion. The company focuses on short‑haul, B2B logistics for Fortune 500 retailers and, in 2021, launched the world’s first fully driverless commercial transportation service with Walmart. Gatik’s Class 3‑7 autonomous trucks are commercially deployed across major markets, including Texas, Arkansas, and Ontario, Canada, driving innovation in freight transportation.
Gatik’s proprietary Level 4 autonomous technology, Gatik Carrier™, is custom‑built to transport freight safely and efficiently between pick‑up and drop‑off locations on the middle mile. With robust capabilities in both highway and urban environments, Gatik Carrier™ serves as an all‑encompassing solution that integrates advanced software and hardware powering the fleet, facilitating effortless integration into customers’ logistics operations.
About The Role We are seeking Senior/Staff Software Engineers, experts in C++ and who have strong fundamentals in software development practices and are experienced in a production‑oriented environment. The ideal candidate is a highly experienced C++ developer with a passion for enabling the world’s first safe, reliable & efficient network of autonomous vehicles. You will partner with the research and software engineers to design, develop, test and validate AV features for our autonomous fleet. This role will be onsite at our Mountain View office.
What You’ll Do
Design, implement, integrate, and support real‑time mission‑critical software for Gatik’s autonomy stack
Work with research engineers to develop maintainable, testable and robust software designs
Architect and implement solutions to complex issues between components partitioned across the large software stack
Guide best SDLC practices while contributing to improving the safety in the core autonomy stack
Collaborate with the Infrastructure and DevOps teams for efficient, secure and scalable software delivery to a network of Gatik’s autonomous fleet
Guide and mentor autonomy researchers and algorithm developers to make sure their components run efficiently and with optimal compute and memory usage
Review and refine technical requirements and translate them into high‑level design & plans to support the development of safe AV technology
Conduct code and design reviews and advise on technical matters
What We’re Looking For
Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Robotics or a related field
Master’s or PhD preferred
7+ years relevant industry experience in a production environment
Expert software developer in C++ and build systems (Conan, CMake, Bazel)
Experience using software project management tools (Jira, Confluence, etc.)
Proven system integration and software architecture skills
Strong background in linear/non‑linear optimization, linear algebra or statistics
Experience building frameworks/software infrastructure for large‑scale projects
Bonus Qualifications
Working knowledge of the Planning and Prediction modules of the AV stack
Working knowledge of software tools like ROS2, PyTorch
Experience integrating and deploying AI models
Salary Range – $180,000 – $260,000
About Gatik Founded in 2017 by experts in autonomous vehicle technology, Gatik has rapidly expanded its presence to Mountain View, Dallas‑Fort Worth, Arkansas, and Toronto. As the first and only company to achieve fully driverless middle‑mile commercial deliveries, Gatik holds a unique and defensible position in the AV industry, with a clear trajectory toward sustainable growth and profitability.
We have delivered complete, proprietary AV technology—an integration of software and hardware—to enable earlier successes for our clients in constrained Level 4 autonomy. By choosing the middle mile—defined point‑to‑point delivery—we have simplified some of the more complex AV challenges, enabling us to achieve full autonomy ahead of competitors. Given extensive knowledge of Gatik’s well‑defined, fixed route ODDs and hybrid architecture, we are able to hyper‑optimize our models with exponentially less data, establish gate‑keeping mechanisms to maintain explainability, and ensure continued safety of the system for unmanned operations.
Benefits to Our Team At Gatik, we connect people of extraordinary talent and experience to an opportunity to create a more resilient supply chain and contribute to our environment’s sustainability. We are diverse in our backgrounds and perspectives yet united by a bold vision and shared commitment to our values. Our culture emphasizes the importance of collaboration, respect and agility. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive environment where everyone feels they have opportunities to succeed and grow because we know that together we can do great things. We do not discriminate based on race, color, ethnicity, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, marital status or any legally protected status.
