Senior Autonomy Software Integration Engineer

Senior Autonomy Software Integration Engineer 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.

The Integration & Delivery team sits at the center of Torc's autonomy software ecosystem, bringing together capabilities developed across Perception, Behaviors, and Platform teams into a cohesive product:
Torc Drive. We are responsible for ensuring autonomy applications run reliably on embedded vehicle hardware, enabling product features to move from development to deployment safely, efficiently, and at scale.

Our mission is to accelerate software delivery by creating scalable integration architectures, improving development workflows, and enabling rapid iteration across the autonomy stack. We partner closely with engineering teams across the organization to transform cutting‑edge autonomy technology into production‑ready software that powers the future of freight.
