Design, build, and maintain Python-based services and AWS data pipelines to compute and validate autonomy performance metrics. Translate system-level safety requirements into production implementations, process telemetry and validation data, implement release validation logic, debug pipeline and telemetry issues, and contribute to workflow orchestration, code reviews, and cross-functional design.
About the Role
Torc is developing Level 4 autonomous semi-truck software to transform how freight moves across the world. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Metrics for Release (MFR) team, you will play a key role in translating business and system requirements into production-ready software that evaluates autonomy performance and supports release readiness.
This role will work across the entire MFR ecosystem, partnering with requirements and systems teams to take high-level safety and performance goals (SPI requirements) and turn them into scalable, reliable pipelines and services.
Your work will directly impact how we measure, validate, and ultimately ship autonomy safely at scale.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
