About the Company At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business. A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners. Now a part of the Daimler family , we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.

Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer. Meet the Team Join Torc's Release organization, where we help ensure autonomous driving software is validated, measured, and ready for deployment. Our team operates at the intersection of autonomy, systems engineering, testing, and data analysis, supporting release decisions through metrics, investigations, and system-level evaluation.

As a Systems Engineer II, you will contribute to release readiness activities by analyzing system behavior, developing metrics and tooling, investigating issues, and partnering with engineering teams across the organization. You will work alongside senior engineers to help evaluate software quality and performance while supporting the processes used to validate Torc's autonomous driving system.

What You'Ll Do

Support release readiness activities through analysis of software performance, testing results, and system-level metrics. Develop, maintain, and improve Python-based tools, scripts, dashboards, and workflows used to evaluate software quality and release health. Analyze test results from simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, closed-course, and on-road testing environments.

Investigate system-level issues and support root cause analysis efforts in collaboration with software, systems, validation, and autonomy engineering teams. Work with large datasets to identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities for improvement across the autonomy stack. Help define, implement, and maintain metrics that provide visibility into software quality, system performance, and release readiness.

Collaborate with engineers across Perception, Behaviors, Platform, Validation, and Systems Engineering teams to understand system behavior and support technical investigations.

Requirements
