About Us

We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new solutions to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow.

You will work in a fast paced, dynamic environment on every stage of program development from concept to launch and be heavily influential in developing the practices, culture, and engineering principals of our growing team. This role is focused on the design and bring-up of mission critical vehicle features and is highly cross functional, working with electrical, mechanical, systems engineering, and other software teams. Ideal candidates will have experience across all stages of product development from concept to success launch and beyond.

What You Will Do (Responsibilities)

• Partner with Electrical, Mechanical, Controls, and UX teams to architect critical vehicle features across the product from low level systems to user interfaces
• Lead the design and implementation of firmware running on a distributed embedded system with multiple microcontrollers, with a focus on optimizing power/energy consumption, security, and safety. Define system level power requirements and implement low power modes of operation for each of the microcontrollers. Early phases of firmware development will focus on hardware validation and testing, defining and implementing a system of secure updates, and manufacturing test support.
• Optimize firmware for low-power operation, extending the battery life of IoT devices and supporting energy-efficient designs. Profile power consumption and identify opportunities for optimization on the submodule as well as system level.
• Development of HMI (human-machine interface) software features, including display functionality with core vehicle information and infotainment content.
• Develop comprehensive test plans and perform thorough testing to validate firmware functionality, stability, and performance under various conditions, including low power modes. Implement a robust CI/CD pipeline to ensure the team has access to the latest stable and development builds.
• Collaborate with QA teams, leverage metrics and familiarity with common lab equipment to monitor for and debug issues at scale
• Partner with existing embedded software teams to share common platforms and code base where appropriate to focus internal team time on building novel, differentiated code.
• Engage effectively with third party firms by delivering clear specifications and requirements and managing execution
  
  

What You Will Bring (Qualifications)

• B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
• 8+ years of experience in firmware development, preferably with vertically integrated consumer products
• Expert in C programming, ideally familiar with C++, Python, and bash scripting
• Proficiency with real time operating system platforms, ideally in safety critical applications.
• Expert knowledge of embedded microprocessor tools, hardware peripherals, and common buses
• Familiarity with hardware/software architecture selection with cost and performance tradeoffs (e.g. OS, MCU)
• Hands-on experience debugging in real world environments with embedded diagnostics tooling such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG etc.
• Established success in building, growing and developing fast paced, highly experienced software teams spanning multiple embedded disciplines
• Highly collaborative mindset and strong communication skills
