Who we are:

Argo AI is a global self-driving products and services company on a mission to make the world’s streets and roadways safe, accessible, and useful for all. Our technology is built to enable commercial services for autonomous delivery and ridesharing in cities. 

With experienced leaders in the field and collaborative partnerships with some of the world’s top consumer brands, we’re working block by block, city by city to empower people and businesses to be more successful. We’re individuals driven by strong values to solve complex problems together. Come join us to reimagine the human journey.

Meet the team:

The architect role is responsible for what is to be built. This Architecture team will oversee design, mentor engineers, and set the technical direction of IT for the organization.

What you’ll do: 

  • Partner with the business and identify the stakeholders and the needs: who is impacted and should be signing off that the architecture addresses the needs.
  • Work (potentially with others) to develop a clear architectural design that is clearly communicated and appropriately reviewed.
  • Ensure the architectural plan solves the core problem and is well scoped to be achieved in a reasonable time frame. Note in many cases, this may require a sequential plan with a series of intermediate milestones that produce a tangible usable (but limited) system rapidly that can then be iteratively improved.
  • Ensure that we use the right technologies so we end up with a cost efficient, scalable solution that meets the core needs.
  • Work with TPM(s) and team leads to ensure the effort has appropriate resources, clear owners of each piece, and is scheduled with a realistic executable plan, and communicated broadly to the org. Note, we may often develop an architecture well before we execute the work.
  • Where needed, ensure we have a clear test and validation plan.
  • Update architecture and project plan as work executes and we obtain feedback that may change the initial assumptions or invalidate approaches.

What you'll need to succeed:

  • Prior senior level engineering experience
  • Experience with Cloud compute environments (AWS and GCP) 
  • Strong experience with Linux and OSX systems
  • Strong experience with Cisco Systems (Network, Compute) Professional or Expert level certification a plus
  • Demonstrated ability to think about the big picture, including the relationships between systems, the impact of design decisions to the broader effort, and the viewpoints of different stakeholders
  • Strong interpersonal and technical communication skills
  • Strong verbal and written skill set
  • Experience with security design
  • Experience with IT systems Orchestration 
  • Experience building enterprise class designs

Our Background:

Argo AI was founded in late 2016 by industry experts with extensive experience building robotic systems for commercial applications. Our once-small team has since grown into an over 1,000-person strong company with strategic partnerships with two of the world’s leading automakers: Ford and Volkswagen. Our self-driving system is the first with commercial deployment plans for Europe and the U.S., and thanks to an ability to tap into both automakers’ global reach, our technology platform has the largest geographic deployment potential of any self-driving technology to date.
