Glydways
Glydways builds on-demand urban transit systems that use small autonomous electric vehicles running on dedicated, low-footprint guideways. It designs and manufactures the vehicles and infrastructure and partners with cities, transit agencies, and private developers to deploy and operate the service. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in South San Francisco, the privately held company targets high-capacity, carbon-neutral mobility for dense corridors and campus-scale connections.

Own the end-to-end Cabin UX for Glydways’ autonomous transit vehicles, building fast, accessible rider interfaces that run across on-vehicle hardware, cloud services, and operator systems. This Staff Software Engineer role combines full-stack TypeScript development with real-time communication, telemetry, offline-first behavior, and embedded deployment.
Glydways is seeking a Localization Systems Engineer to develop and validate localization, calibration, and mapping software for autonomous ground vehicles. The role combines requirements ownership, simulation and hardware-in-the-loop testing, and hands-on work with C++ autonomy systems.
Build the testing and Hardware-in-the-Loop infrastructure that validates Glydways’ autonomous transit software across simulation, software, and physical vehicle environments. This role combines software test automation with hands-on hardware bench integration for safety-critical systems.
Join Glydways’ Autonomy Integration team to build and integrate software across autonomous vehicles, hardware, track infrastructure, and simulation systems. You’ll work across the autonomy stack, from onboard fault handling and safety systems to offline tooling and vehicle testing.
Build the tooling and automation that makes Glydways’ SIL-4 safety-critical software traceable, auditable, and certifiable. You’ll improve Bazel, CI, developer workflows, internal dashboards, and operational support across the engineering organization.
Build the embedded software foundation that enables Glydways autonomous vehicles to operate safely and reliably on real track systems. This hands-on role spans device interfaces, middleware, embedded Linux, vehicle debugging, and production deployment.
Own critical embedded firmware domains for autonomous transit vehicles where reliability is a safety requirement. Lead low-level development, hardware bring-up, communication architecture, testing, and engineering practices across a hands-on embedded team.
