Senior, Software Engineer - Cloud Automation

Ann Arbor, MI, Remote - US

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. 

What you'll do: 
Nearly every engineering team at Torc builds and runs workloads in AWS, and we are the team that makes that possible at scale. We own and operate a large, global AWS Organization and Control Tower, and we are accountable for the foundational infrastructure, security posture, and developer tooling that the rest of engineering depends on. Some of the responsibilities we have include: 

  • Defining and maintaining an account vending machine with appropriate organizational control policies 
  • Designing and operating shared networks, including Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, and cloud-native network segmentation 
  • Owning cloud security posture: SIEM integrations, identity and access management, and compliance tooling 
  • Designing, deploying, and operating shared infrastructure including EKS and ECS clusters, and hosted application platforms 
  • Maintaining and improving CI/CD infrastructure and shared build tooling used across the engineering organization 
  • Managing shared package and artifact distribution (JFrog Artifactory, AWS CodeArtifact) 
  • Driving cloud cost visibility, attribution, and efficiency across the organization 
  • Collaborating with teams specializing in perception, planning, control, mapping, and vehicle testing to architect solutions that support their development workflows in AWS 
  • Contributing to technical decisions, design reviews, and the team's documentation and operational standards 

 
 
Here is a list of some of the technologies we use to make all the above happen: 

  • AWS (Organizations, Control Tower, Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, WAF, FMS, Lambda, EventBridge, MACIE, SecurityHub, EKS, ECS, IAM, S3, EC2) 
  • Terraform and Account Factory for Terraform (AFT) 
  • Python 
  • GitHub Actions, Jenkins, JFrog Artifactory, AWS CodeArtifact 
  • On-Call Tooling (Datadog, AWS CloudWatch) 

  
How We Work: 
We work in a distributed team with a remote-first mindset. By that we just mean that we work to ensure everyone is on the same playing field in terms of collaboration and information, regardless of where they work. We collaborate frequently in many different forms including daily stand-ups, planning meetings, and many ad-hoc discussions/brainstorming/troubleshooting/pairing sessions over zoom or slack. Our team is operationally responsible for the services we own, so we do have an on-call rotation in place where each member will take a turn serving as the front-line to incidents for our services. Rotations last a week each, during business hours. We value maintaining a healthy work/life balance and prefer sustainable development over heroic efforts. 
 
What you'll need to Succeed: 

  • BS/MS Degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent practical experience 
  • Deep, hands-on experience with AWS, particularly in multi-account Organizations, IAM, networking, EKS/ECS, and security services 
  • Strong infrastructure as code discipline using Terraform, including module design and managing state at scale 
  • Demonstrated experience with cloud security fundamentals: identity and access management, least-privilege design, compliance tooling, and security posture management 
  • Familiarity with CI/CD systems and the infrastructure behind build, test, and artifact workflows 

 
Bonus Points! 

  • Strong organizational, time management, and communication skills working with a team orientation and collaborative style 
  • Experience with AWS Control Tower, Account Factory for Terraform (AFT), or similar account vending patterns 
  • Experience operating infrastructure for ML or robotics workloads

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
