Software Engineering Manager, Autonomous

Software Engineer, Delivery Network Platform Join Zipline, where we are revolutionizing logistics with an autonomous delivery network. As part of the Delivery Network Platform team, you will develop the foundational systems that enable aircraft, sites, and infrastructure to operate seamlessly in live delivery scenarios. Your work will involve creating software solutions that provide operators with real-time insights and control, designing orchestration systems that manage fleet movements, and developing validation platforms to ensure the network's reliability as it scales. Your Responsibilities You will be responsible for software systems that are pivotal to fleet operations, including: Network Operating Center software for real-time visibility and interventions across aircraft, sites, missions, weather, and demand. Fleet orchestration systems for assignment, routing, scheduling, and rebalancing tasks. Maintenance and asset health systems linking issue detection to service readiness. Simulation and validation platforms to assess topology, load, and policy changes prior to production. Platform interfaces and configurable control planes that empower other teams to safely extend the network. Tackling Complex Challenges Unlike typical software roles focused on digital experiences, this position plays a critical role in managing a live autonomous logistics network. You'll address challenges such as: Maintaining an accurate real-time view of aircraft and essential site assets across the network. Ensuring the network remains operational amidst shifting demand, changing weather conditions, infrastructure issues, or capacity constraints. Creating user-friendly operator control interfaces that facilitate quick and accurate decision-making under pressure. Simulating potential future network behaviors to mitigate risks before they impact production. These systems directly affect operational performance. You will own significant components of the platform, make critical technical and product decisions, and have a substantial impact on the network's effectiveness. Team Dynamics Our team operates with a strong emphasis on ownership, trust, and high technical standards. Engineers are expected to identify significant problems, develop a clear vision for system functionality, and drive solutions from conception to production. Additionally, we encourage engineers to leverage AI tools to enhance exploration, implementation, and debugging processes while upholding strong engineering principles, judgment, and accountability.

Role overview Meter Inc. is developing tools to capture and preserve the expertise of network engineers. The team’s goal is to build systems that document how experts diagnose network issues, making it possible for future models to manage networks with less manual effort. This work will help Meter support many customer networks while reducing the need for direct engineer intervention. What makes this work unique Network engineering lacks the structured archives found in software development. While Git and GitHub record software decisions, the reasoning behind network troubleshooting often disappears once a problem is fixed. This role centers on building a structured, searchable system for network operations, a kind of GitHub for network engineering. The system will capture network state, expert observations, and the logic behind key decisions. Your first 90 days First 30 days: Meet with network engineers to learn their workflows. Study what effective diagnostic documentation looks like and identify the necessary data. Review telemetry (ClickHouse), configurations (Postgres), and support history (Salesforce). By 60 days: Deliver a working annotation interface. Network engineers should be able to review past support tickets, view the network’s state during incidents, and record their reasoning. The tool should be practical and encourage regular use. By 90 days: Network engineers will be able to create training data independently. Initial model benchmarks from your pipeline will be live, showing how your work improves the process. Technical stack TypeScript React Go GraphQL Kafka Postgres Collaboration This role works closely with Meter’s co-founder and CEO, who will help guide the product roadmap and set priorities. Location This position is based in San Francisco.
