Vehicle Software Platform Engineer

We're hiring a Vehicle Software Platform Engineer to design and build scalable application and middleware components for next-generation vehicle software systems in the autonomous and assisted driving space. You'll develop core software modules, middleware, and integration layers that connect vehicle operating systems, compute platforms, and sensor data to high-level driving functions, writing production-quality C++ and Python that runs on in-vehicle systems.

What you'll do

• Design and implement application- and middleware-level software features for advanced driving (AD/ADAS) and connected vehicle platforms.
• Develop and maintain C++ and Python modules that interface with sensors, compute nodes, and vehicle systems.
• Contribute to system integration, debugging, and optimization on Linux- and QNX-based environments.
• Set up or adapt build flows and related tooling.

• 3-5+ years of relevant software engineering experience.
• Strong C++ AND Python programming skills.
• Hands-on system software development (drivers, filesystems, sockets) on Linux and/or QNX.
• Solid understanding of embedded software/systems and interfaces such as Ethernet and CAN.
• Proven track record shipping production software in automotive, aerospace, defense, robotics, or a nearby embedded domain.
• Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills; a generalist who dives deep fast and learns continuously.
• Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field highly preferred.
