Latitude AI ( lat.ai ) is building the future of Ford’s autonomy roadmap to make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone. Bringing this vision to scale, our fully in-house developed hands-free ADAS platform will debut on the all-new Ford Fathom in 2027. When you join the Latitude team, you’ll work alongside leading experts across machine learning and robotics, cloud platforms, mapping, sensors and compute systems, test operations, systems and safety engineering – all dedicated to redefining the relationship between people and their vehicles for millions of customers. As a Ford Motor Company subsidiary, we operate independently to develop automated driving technology at the speed of a technology startup. Latitude is headquartered in Pittsburgh with engineering centers in Dearborn, Mich., and Palo Alto, Calif. Meet the team: The Virtual Test Ecosystem (VTE) team ensures that our simulation (fully synthetic) and resimulation (replay engine using vehicle logs) workflows run efficiently and reliably at large scale. We use a mix of open source and cloud provider services to implement a processing framework that’s cloud-agnostic as well as capable of running on-prem. The results of these simulations is business-critical for us - they’re used in order to allow autonomy developers and testers to do large-scale safety and performance testing of changes prior to in-vehicle testing. We interact with engineers throughout the onboard and offboard stack in order to ensure smooth end-to-end capabilities. What you’ll do: • We run vehicle simulations at unprecedented scales in order to ensure we’re releasing a safe product. You’ll support this via improvements to our sim/resim cloud framework and applications that run on this framework. In terms of implementation, this involves a lot of Python coding, interacting with open source packages and various AWS/GCP services. In terms of analysis, we’re constantly looking for bottlenecks that limit scalability or otherwise hinder performance. You’ll put together benchmarking to identify these spots and associated dashboards to track and summarize the information. Then armed with that information, you’ll implement solutions to increase efficiency. • It’s not enough to have a framework that is functional - it needs to be intuitive and easy to use. We take our best guesses at this, but things evolve over time based on user interaction - both direct feedback as well as realizing how users are accidentally misusing or misinterpreting the results. VTE supports autonomy, systems, test, and a variety of other teams across the organization. Having an eye for how the system is being used, what users need, and a willingness to engage with these users on future improvements is critical. • We also can’t build it all, so we want to make the framework well-documented and as self-serve as possible for others to extend it (while being there to answer questions). For example, when there’s a new portion of the autonomy stack, we want that autonomy team to be able to update resim to add it in themselves so that they can iterate quickly. • In order to run logs through resim, we need to first know what logs are interesting. You’ll contribute to the ecosystem of how we manage storing and searching for these logs efficiently, including how we automate indexing the interesting actors and interactions in a scene and how we determine our dataset coverage. • Once we’ve run resim, we want to do something with the updated logs. Frequently this involves metrics to analyze the AV’s performance; these metrics could range from low-level performance of a particular detector in the stack to if the AV is meeting high-level business objectives. You’ll both work on the sim/resim cloud framework implementation to make this easy for all developers to add in their metrics and support the metrics implementation themselves as needs arise. What you'll need to succeed: • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field and 4+ years of relevant experience (or Master's degree and 2+ years of relevant experience, or PhD) • Expertise in writing Python code that’s efficient, well-documented, and well-tested • 2+ years’ experience writing scalable applications that execute in a cloud or HPC environment • 2+ years’ experience writing software that interacts with AWS and/or GCP services • Familiarity with NumPy and scientific programming • Willingness and desire to learn how onboard and offboard components interact with each other and propose solutions to improve how developers and testers work with both systems Nice to have (optional): • C++ development experience • Experience with Kubernetes What we offer you: • Competitive compensation packages • High-quality individual and family medical, dental, and vision insurance • Health savings account with available employer match • Employer-matched 401(k) retirement plan with immediate vesting • Employer-paid group term life insurance and the option to elect voluntary life insurance • Paid parental leave and Adoption/Surrogacy support program • Paid medical leave • Unlimited vacation and 15 paid holidays • Daily lunches, snacks, and beverages available in all office locations • Pre-tax spending accounts for healthcare and dependent care expenses • Pre-tax commuter benefits • Monthly wellness stipend • Backup child and elder care program • Professional development reimbursement • Employee assistance program • Discounted programs that include legal services, identity theft protection, pet insurance, and more • Company and team bonding outlets: employee resource groups, quarterly team activity stipend, and wellness initiatives Learn more about Latitude’s team, mission and career opportunities at lat.ai !

Our software helps bring together complex data, systems, and workflows to support critical decisions across the national-security enterprise. As our platform scales, our technology must operate reliably across cloud, on-premises, and distributed environments. We are looking for a hands-on DevOps Engineer to help make that possible. This is an opportunity for an ambitious engineer with strong technical foundations who wants to take meaningful ownership, solve challenging problems, and grow quickly in a high-impact environment. You will own the systems that take our software from a developer’s laptop all the way into production—and increasingly into distributed customer and edge environments. You will work across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, containers, Kubernetes, observability, automation, security, and edge deployment to make our software easier to build, deploy, operate, and scale. This is an end-to-end ownership role. You won't be limited to a narrow infrastructure function or handed fully defined requirements. You will help identify problems, determine the right approach, build the solution, deploy it, operate it, and continuously improve it. When something breaks, you will be expected to understand the problem, work across layers of the stack, and drive it through to resolution. We are looking for someone who already has strong technical fundamentals, is naturally curious, learns quickly, and wants to take on increasingly difficult problems. You should be excited by the opportunity to grow your scope rather than waiting for someone else to define it. Because we operate in defense environments, our deployments can be very different from a typical SaaS environment. You may work with cloud infrastructure one day and help deploy software into a disconnected, bandwidth-constrained, resource-constrained, or otherwise challenging environment the next. You will work directly with software engineers, technical leadership, customers, and field teams to make those deployments successful. What You'll Own • Own the end-to-end deployment lifecycle—from source control, builds, and testing through production and edge deployment, monitoring, upgrades, recovery, and ongoing operations. • Build and improve CI/CD systems that allow engineering teams to build, test, package, and release software quickly and reliably. • Design and automate deployments across cloud, on-premises, and distributed edge environments, including environments with limited connectivity, constrained resources, or other operational challenges. • Build and maintain infrastructure as code, creating repeatable, version-controlled environments that can be deployed consistently across cloud and edge locations. • Deploy and operate containerized applications using Docker, Kubernetes, and related technologies, including configuration, upgrades, troubleshooting, and lifecycle management. • Create the tooling engineers need to move faster. Identify repetitive or fragile processes and turn them into reliable automation. • Build operational capabilities for configuration management, application lifecycle management, observability, logging, health monitoring, and fleet management across distributed environments. • Own reliable release and recovery mechanisms, including deployment validation, rollbacks, upgrades, failure recovery, and disaster recovery. • Partner closely with software engineers to improve application architecture, deployment patterns, developer workflows, testability, and operational reliability. • Troubleshoot problems across the full stack. Investigate issues spanning applications, containers, Kubernetes, Linux, networking, infrastructure, and deployment systems—and drive them to resolution. • Help build secure-by-default infrastructure and delivery practices, including appropriate access controls, vulnerability management, secrets management, and secure software delivery, while maintaining engineering velocity. • Support production systems and deployments, including participation in an on-call rotation for critical systems as the team and customer footprint grows. • Help shape the deployment architecture as we scale, evolving our platform from early-stage product development toward operating software reliably across a growing distributed customer and edge footprint. • Get close to the real-world mission. Travel 15–20% CONUS and OCONUS to support deployments, field operations, customer environments, and system integration activities. What We're Looking For • 3+ years of professional experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering, or a related technical discipline. • Strong technical foundations in Linux, networking, systems, and software development workflows. • Hands-on experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines, preferably including taking them from an initial implementation to a reliable production system. • Practical experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and containerized application deployment. • Experience with at least one major cloud platform such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. • Experience with Infrastructure as Code, such as Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, or equivalent technologies. • Experience with Git-based development workflows and platforms such as GitHub or GitLab. • Proficiency in Python, Bash, or another programming language used to automate infrastructure and operational workflows. • Experience implementing automated testing, deployment validation, monitoring, and rollback processes. • A solid understanding of networking, APIs, system configuration, and distributed systems. • The ability to diagnose problems across application, infrastructure, networking, and deployment layers rather than treating each as an isolated domain. • Working knowledge of practical software and infrastructure security, including identity and access management, vulnerability management, secrets, and secure configuration. • Experience deploying software in distributed, on-premises, or edge environments is highly desirable, but not required. • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with software engineers, technical leadership, customers, and field teams. • Curiosity and a strong learning mindset. You don't need to know everything; you need to be willing and able to figure things out. • A bias toward ownership. You naturally ask, "What needs to happen to make this work?" rather than "What part of this was assigned to me?" • Comfort operating in a fast-paced startup environment where requirements change, problems are sometimes ambiguous, and you may need to define the problem, build the solution, deploy it, and own the outcome. • Willingness and ability to travel, roughly 15% CONUS and OCONUS What We Value We care less about whether you've worked with every technology on our stack and more about how you approach problems. The right person for this role: • Has strong engineering fundamentals and is eager to keep building on them. • Takes responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks. • Can move between the details and the bigger picture. • Is comfortable saying, "I don't know yet," and then figuring it out. • Enjoys building rather than simply maintaining. • Looks for ways to automate, simplify, and make systems more reliable. • Wants to understand how software behaves in the real world, not just how it works in a development environment. • Is energized by difficult deployment environments and problems that don't have an obvious playbook. • Wants their responsibilities and impact to grow as they demonstrate capability. What Success Looks Like Success in this role means engineering can move quickly without being held back by deployment and operational complexity. Software moves predictably from development to production. Deployments are repeatable rather than bespoke. Cloud and edge environments can be provisioned and updated through automation. Failures are observable, diagnosable, and recoverable. Engineers can understand the health of their systems without needing to become infrastructure experts. You will have significant ownership over how we build, deploy, and operate our software, and your scope will grow as you demonstrate that you can take on more. This is a role for someone who is ready to go beyond their current experience—not because they already know everything, but because they are ambitious, technically capable, and eager to learn. Salary Range • The estimated base salary range for this position is $100,000/year to $120,000/year. Final salary will be determined based on location, experience, and qualifications. Benefits • Full medical, dental, vision coverage for employee and dependents • 401k matching program • PTO and Holidays • Bonus and other incentive programs • Access to mental health program • Access to Flexible Spending Accounts for Health Care, Dependent and Commuter About Rhombus Rhombus Power Inc.

ABOUT QUINCE Quince is a destination for builders, creators, innovators, and operators who want to come together and challenge the status quo. Our mission is simple: make really high quality essentials for really low prices, fairly and sustainably. We deliver on that mission through a unique manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) model eliminating the layers of traditional retail that add cost and result in consumers paying more than they need to. We find, build relationships with, and work directly with the manufacturing partners behind some of the world’s finest products. From there, our teams design smart, efficient operational processes and build and deploy proprietary technology, AI, and analytics to help us scale fast. What began with a small assortment of elevated basics has quickly grown into a cross-category brand spanning apparel, accessories, home goods, and more. Today, tens of millions of people across a growing number of countries come – and return – to Quince because they trust us to deliver. OUR CULTURE Quince is a culture built for builders by builders. Our way of working starts with a blank sheet of paper. We question conventional thinking, use technology and data to uncover new opportunities, and move quickly to turn ideas into reality. We aren’t interested in replicating how others do retail. We’re building a better way – at a speed and scale unlike anything that’s been done before. • We dream big and chase the hard problems others shy away from. Rejecting long-held assumptions is part of our company's DNA. Where conventional wisdom says you have to choose – soft or durable, speed or rigor, quality or price – we ask why that trade-off has to exist in the first place. • Our pace is fast and the bar is high because our customers expect a lot from us and we refuse to let them down. We believe the best results come from challenging ourselves, learning from one another, and building on each other's strengths. • Here, responsibility is not determined by role, tenure, or seniority. Every team member - no matter their level - has the opportunity to drive our business and shape our trajectory. If you’re someone who likes to imagine new possibilities and build better systems rather than plug-in to outdated ones, Quince is the place for you.

PsiQuantum's mission is to build the first useful quantum computers: machines capable of delivering the breakthroughs the field has long promised. Since our founding in 2016, our singular focus has been to build and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems. Quantum computers harness the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that even the most advanced supercomputers or AI systems will never reach. Their impact will span energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other foundational industries. Our architecture and approach is based on silicon photonics. By leveraging the advanced semiconductor manufacturing industry, including partners like GlobalFoundries, we use the same high-volume processes that already produce billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics. Photonics offers natural advantages for scale: photons don't feel heat, are immune to electromagnetic interference, and integrate with existing cryogenic cooling and standard fiber-optic infrastructure. That approach has since been tested at the highest level of scrutiny the U.S. government applies to emerging technology, and it has held up. In 2025, PsiQuantum closed a $1 billion funding round that valued the company at $7 billion. In 2026, the U.S. Department of Commerce signed a $100 million Letter of Intent under the CHIPS and Science Act, followed by a $125 million agreement with DARPA under Stage C of its Quantum Benchmarking Initiative, PsiQuantum's most valuable U.S. government agreement to date. This year, we also broke ground on our utility-scale quantum computer in Brisbane, Australia, and continued building out our Chicago site. Victor Peng, our CEO, and co-founder Jeremy O'Brien, now Executive Chairman, lead a team and board that reflects how seriously the world is taking this build, joined this year by Intel's Lip-Bu Tan and Atomico's Niklas Zennström. PsiQuantum also develops the algorithms and software needed to make these systems commercially valuable. Our application, software, and industry teams work directly with leading Fortune 500 companies, including Airbus, Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical, to prepare quantum solutions for real-world impact. Quantum computing is not an extension of classical computing. It represents a fundamental shift, and a path to mastering challenges that cannot be solved any other way. The potential is enormous, and we now have the funding, the government validation, and the sites under construction to make it real. Job Summary: The Technical Product Management Lead will serve as the technical face of the product to customers, partners, and the broader industry.
