Algorithm Engineer - Routing

• You and your team build and maintain a software system to provide travel times and routes for our vehicle fleet. The travel times directly influence the assignment of customers to vehicles and yield ETAs for our customers. Hence, high accuracy is mandatory and monitoring and improving it is your daily business.
• In other scenarios, only approximate travel times are required but at a high volume. You will actively participate in developing state-of-the-art routing algorithms and data structures that support fast travel time queries and continuously monitor and improve the quality of the system.
• Provide tools to help us and other teams understand and debug routing behavior.
• Analyze geospatial data to systematically tune our routing parameters according to our specific use cases for autonomous and non-autonomous vehicles.
• To reach these targets jointly, you become part of a highly specialized team comprising software engineers with different areas of expertise such as routing algorithms, high-performance computing, geospatial computation, and cloud infrastructure.

Do you have experience in Rust (programming language)?, * An understanding of the complexity of algorithms and the desire to dig deep and squeeze the last bit of performance out of our systems.

• Either previous experience or a strong interest in working with geospatial data (maps, routes, GPS traces), routing algorithms, and routing APIs.
• Solid professional experience in developing highly efficient applications in a systems programming language. Ideally, you love to write Rust code like we do.
• Having deep experience in developing and designing software for microservice-based environments. Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS-managed services for deployments is a plus
• Be ready to live and breathe DevOps and believe in automated testing, infrastructure as code, and continuous deployment
• You enjoy collaborating and sharing knowledge with colleagues, also in a remote-first setting

• Competitive salary (including bonus)
• Hybrid work setup: Work from home or one of our offices - you and your team decide how often to meet, blending flexibility with collaboration!

• Budget and monthly expense allowance for home office setup
• Possibility of remote work from outside Germany for up to 6 weeks per year from over 35 countries - learn more in our blog!
• Public transport ticket (fully subsidized "Deutschlandticket") for commuting and travelling throughout Germany and discount on MOIA rides
• Subsidized fitness club membership or bike leasing
• Learning environment with continuous learning days, job rotation, trainings and workshops, coaching, conferences, books, and language classes
• Mental health support, 1:1 sessions with external professionals and mental unload workshops
• 30 vacation days, sabbatical and unpaid leave option
• Relocation support with service provider (visa, administration, etc.)
• Dog-friendly offices

For student & internship positions, we have an adjusted set of benefits. You can find them here.
