From generating rich 3D and semantic priors from aerial survey data to learning customer preferences and terrain features at scale, your work will define how we prepare Zipline aircraft to perform mission-critical deliveries in complex, real-world environments. This is not a research role—you'll be expected to move fast, ship production-grade systems, and find clever ways to apply state-of-the-art techniques to tangible, high-impact problems. What You'll Do • Own the design and implementation of cloud-side autonomy pipelines that directly support and scale our onboard perception stack., • Leverage satellite imagery, aerial surveys, and structured data to build semantic and geometric world models of customer delivery zones., • Design and ship tools that predict deliverability, generate high-fidelity priors, and reduce the operational friction of onboarding new customers in new environments. You'll step in where our on-vehicle capabilities can't solve the problems we need to solve in order to scale the product., • Train and deploy mid- to large-scale models for semantic segmentation, 3D geometry, and learned preference modeling., • Design evaluation and validation infrastructure to ensure models behave reliably in the field., • Work across engineering to integrate your work into fleet-facing autonomy systems., • Lead architectural decisions, drive experimentation, and help the team push the limits of what's possible with production-grade perception at scale. What You'll Bring • At least 5+ years of experience building and deploying deep learning-based perception systems, particularly in 3D geometry, semantic understanding, or mapping from remote sensing data., • Strong understanding of classical computer vision (e.g. camera calibration, epipolar geometry, structure-from-motion) and the ability to blend it with modern ML approaches., • Hands-on experience training, iterating on, and optimizing CNN and transformer architectures in production environments., • An engineering mindset focused on outcomes over experimentation—you know how to prioritize what's good enough to ship now and what needs to be architected for scale later., • Familiarity with building training, data annotation, and evaluation pipelines—not just models., • Comfort working across systems: jumping into data pipelines, training infrastructure, or debugging distributed training issues as needed., • Experience deploying models in real-world, high-stakes robotics or autonomy applications is a strong plus. Why This Team? • You'll own real-world autonomy problems that matter—delivering essential goods around the world, in thousands of diverse backyards and environments., • You'll have autonomy and trust to define the roadmap and drive architectural decisions that shape Zipline's global operations., • You'll work on cutting-edge problems with people who care deeply about quality, systems thinking, and solving hard problems with elegance and clarity.

Through our technology that includes robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, and reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access to billions of people and building a more resilient global supply chain. About You & the Role Own the flight-critical runtime that keeps Zipline aircraft in a known safe state—no matter what the world throws at them. You'll architect and ship the autonomy safety layer that orchestrates missions, detects/diagnoses faults, and executes mitigation and recovery across planning, perception, and controls. This is deep systems work in Rust/C++ with tight real-time constraints: you'll make high-judgment design decisions, prove them in SIL/HIL and flight logs, and raise the bar on reliability for a global, safety-critical fleet. What You'll Do * Design the mission/flight manager: build the state machines and orchestration logic that govern mission sequencing, safe-state transitions, and behavior gating under latency and resource constraints. * Own fault management end-to-end: implement detection, isolation, mitigation, and recovery (FIMR) for sensors, compute, comms, power, and actuation; ensure graceful degradation and continuity of service. * Ship flight-critical Rust/C++: develop and maintain core onboard components with strong observability (health, logs, metrics) and testability (deterministic replay, assertions, invariants). * Prove safety before flight: define success criteria and build the tooling—scenario libraries, SIL/HIL, log-replay harnesses, fault-injection—to validate behaviors across edge cases and long-tail conditions. * Integrate across autonomy: partner with planning, perception, and controls to set interfaces, hazards/assumptions, and escalation paths; codify contracts that the runtime enforces. * Close the loop with operations: turn fleet telemetry and incident reviews into requirements and fixes; drive MTBF/MTTR improvements and intervention-rate reductions. * Lead with systems judgment: write design docs, perform hazard analysis (e.g., FMEA/STPA-style), run design/PR reviews, and mentor engineers on deep-stack ownership. What You'll Bring * 8+ years building production software for robotics, aerospace, AV, or other safety-critical embedded systems. * Expert in Rust and/or C++ (C as a plus) for real-time, fault-tolerant applications on embedded Linux/RTOS. * Demonstrated systems thinking: clear interface design, resource budgeting, and trade-offs under timing/safety/power constraints. * Hands-on with SIL/HIL, scenario validation, log replay, and fault injection; you measure reliability, not just functionality. * Track record of shipping autonomy features (mission logic, supervision, watchdogs, health monitoring) into noisy, dynamic real-world environments. * Comfort in HW/SW co-design: you can reason about sensors, compute, comms, and actuators well enough to make robust software decisions. * Strong communication and documentation; you make complex safety decisions legible and auditable. 🚫 Not the Right Fit If * Your background is primarily web/backend/app platforms with limited embedded or autonomy exposure. * You prefer building general cloud tooling over flight-critical runtime software that directly governs vehicles. At Zipline, your code will decide—not just observe. If you're ready to own the runtime that keeps aircraft safe while we scale autonomous delivery worldwide, we'd love to talk. WHAT ELSE YOU NEED TO KNOW This will be an in-office role based out of our South San Francisco HQs. The starting cash range for this role is $200,000 - $265,000; please note that this is a target, starting cash range for a candidate who meets the minimum qualifications for this role. We are always open to negotiation. The final cash pay for this role will depend on a variety of factors, including a specific candidate's experience, qualifications, skills, working location, and projected impact.
