Wing
Senior Simulation Infrastructure Engineer
Wing, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
About Wing:
Wing offers drone delivery as a safe, fast, and sustainable solution for last mile logistics. Consumer appetites for on-demand services are increasing, but current delivery methods are inefficient, costly, and contribute to road accidents and air pollution. Wing's fleet of highly automated delivery drones can transport small packages directly from businesses to homes on-demand, in minutes. We design, build, and operate our aircraft, and offer drone delivery services on three continents. Our technology is designed to be easy to integrate into existing delivery and logistics networks, offering a scalable drone delivery solution for a broad range of businesses. Wing is a part of Google's parent company, Alphabet, and our mission is to create the preferred means of delivery for the planet. To do this, we must build a workforce that's representative of the global communities that we serve. If you're ready to do the greatest work of your life, come join us.
About the Role:
Wing is looking for a
Senior Simulation Infrastructure Engineer
to join our
Simulation
team based in
Palo Alto, CA . This is a key role in ensuring the reliability and scalability of our simulation software infrastructure. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated experience developing and maintaining production systems and the ability to deliver results as part of a dynamic, cross-functional team.
Simulation is a core technology for Wing - it enables testing of systems in countless scenarios at a very large scale . Simulation is central to Wing's development workflow, where our tools provide rapid feedback for research and development and business impact. Additionally, through continuous verification, simulation is critical for ensuring our fleet of autonomous aircraft meets the customer needs.
As Senior Infrastructure Engineer, you will be responsible for developing scalable simulation software infrastructure that supports the continuous integration and deployment of Wing's software and hardware systems. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to define simulation requirements and understand their needs to accelerate R&D. A key part of the role will be designing tools for monitoring, analysis, and visualization of simulation results, and implementing continuous verification strategies.
What You'll Do:
Design and build intuitive, interpretable simulation systems that enable rapid iteration and validation of new features and algorithms, accelerating Wing's R&D cycles.
Engineer a robust and scalable simulation infrastructure capable of handling millions of simulations daily that provide meaningful insights while ensuring efficient resource use.
Lead efforts to integrate real-world flight data into simulation environments, enhancing the accuracy and realism of simulated scenarios. Refine and optimize data pipelines to seamlessly incorporate this data.
Partner with data scientists, software engineers, operations, and UX teams to create user-friendly simulation tools that simplify setup, execution, analysis, and visualization, seamlessly integrating into existing workflows.
Develop and maintain a comprehensive testing infrastructure that enables continuous verification of Wing's software and hardware systems, minimizing human intervention and maximizing confidence in system reliability.
Mentor and guide simulation team members through code reviews, design discussions, and collaborative projects. Share best practices and knowledge to elevate the entire team's capabilities.
What You'll Need:
BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, Physics, Math, or related field (or equivalent experience)
8+ years professional experience designing and developing software
Experience with developing backend systems in C++
Demonstrated ability to work with internal teams and deliver solutions to address their needs
Experience with mentorship or managing small teams
Experience building developer productivity tools.
Have built large-scale autonomous vehicle fleet simulation pipelines.
Passion for infrastructure work: developing internal solutions, building pipelines and core frameworks
Passion for aviation and developing new technologies
Knowledge of production technologies
Experience with software quality assurance, in particular verification and validation testing
