C++ Onboard Platform Engineer — Autonomous Trucks

Applied Intuition; Sunnyvale (CA); Presencial; USD 150.000 - 210.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Applied Intuition in Sunnyvale, CA is building Level 4 autonomous technology for trucks and other vehicles. You will join a team between autonomy algorithms and the vehicle, ensuring reliability and safety as the fleet drives on public roads.

This role emphasizes scalable onboard software architecture and rigorous fault handling. The ideal candidate has 4+ years delivering complex C++ software, strong system design skills, and familiarity with OS internals.

Formación

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 4+ years of experience shipping complex software in C++14 and above.
• Strong system design and engineering fundamentals.
• Experience leading the design of a system from design through production.
• Working knowledge of operating system internals, such as scheduling, memory management, threading, and inter‑process communication.
• Experience debugging problems that cross the boundary between application code, the operating system, and hardware.

Responsabilidades

• Shape Level 4 autonomy software that runs on vehicles on public roads.
• Design runtime architecture of onboard stack: how processes are scheduled, how they communicate, and how the system degrades when a component fails.
• Combine state‑of‑the‑art AI and classical modules to meet high performance and reliability requirements.
• Trace on‑road failures from symptom to root cause in kernel, hardware, or middleware, and fix it.
• Make a real‑time system faster and more predictable on production compute, with measurements.
• Decide how the platform detects and escalates faults, up to commanding the truck to pull over safely.
• Build the measurement systems that tell the program whether the stack is getting faster and more reliable.
• Bring the Applied Intuition self‑driving stack up on new compute platforms and vehicles.
