Job description

About the role

Our team is looking for C++ software engineers interested in designing elegant solutions to difficult problems within autonomous systems and robotics. Whether applying your experience to application-level onboard software in a modern C++ codebase powering on-road products or building systems that operate 200+ ton mining vehicles on deformable off-road terrain, you’ll play a key role in building the autonomy stack powering the next generation of intelligent vehicles.

If you're motivated by complex systems, ownership across boundaries, and real-world impact, this is where architecture meets autonomy.

At Applied Intuition, you will:

• Design and implement onboard application software in modern C++.

• Closely collaborate with engineers across the stack.
• Contribute directly to building up an autonomy program.

We're looking for someone who has:

• Bachelor’s in Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field.
• 1+ years of experience in shipping complex software in C++11 and above.

Nice to have:

• A MSc or PhD in computer science or applied mathematics with coursework or research experience in robotics.
• Experience developing onboard or embedded application software (e.g., autonomy, ADAS, robotics).
• Experience with driver assistance or autonomous driving systems or off-road products.
