## About the role

This is software that moves real vehicles carrying real passengers, so reliability isn't a nice-to-have - it's the job. As a Software Engineer on Onboard Integration , you won't be handed narrowly scoped tickets. You'll take a problem from the whiteboard to code running on a vehicle at our test track, get hands-on with the newest hardware in the building, and debug across the software, firmware, and electrical boundaries where the hard problems live.

## What they're looking for

- 4+ years of professional software engineering experience, including shipping and supporting production systems
- Strong proficiency in C++ or C for production systems—comfortable navigating and improving an existing codebase as well as writing new components
- Experience developing device drivers or low-level interfaces for sensors and/or actuators, including use of hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or similar test frameworks
- Experience developing on resource-constrained embedded hardware (CPU, memory, storage, or bandwidth limited)
- Solid understanding of communication protocols, from low-level (SPI, UART, CAN) to higher-level networking (TCP/UDP)
- Experience with Linux, especially embedded environments (e.g., Yocto, Buildroot, or similar)
