This role combines hands-on integration and analysis with direct customer engagement. It suits an engineer who works effectively on their own on site and communicates clearly with both the customer and distributed internal teams.

At Applied Intuition, you will:

• Perform bench and vehicle integration on site, including software flashing, board bring-up, power mode testing, and debugging of CAN/CAN-FD, SOME/IP and Automotive Ethernet communication
• Triage findings as they arise: reproduce the issue, isolate its source, and document it with the logs and analysis engineering needs to act on it
• Own defects through to resolution and keep the customer informed of their status throughout
• Support milestone deliveries on site through smoke testing, release validation and test execution
• Lead technical working sessions with the customer's domain engineers across software, hardware and validation
• Document bench configurations, flashing procedures and integration steps so that setup knowledge is preserved and transferable
• Provide structured written updates to distributed engineering teams
• Build a deep understanding of the system architecture and of how software, hardware and vehicle networks interact

We're looking for someone who has:

• 2+ years of experience in embedded or automotive software integration, validation or development
• Technical knowledge of the body, ADAS and infotainment domains
• Hands-on debugging experience on real hardware and test benches, including log and trace analysis and confident use of standard lab instrumentation such as multimeters, bus measurement equipment and JTAG debug interfaces
• Familiarity with embedded operating systems such as Linux, QNX or Android Automotive
• Experience with CI/CD and release processes on large software projects
• Strong written communication skills, with the ability to summarize complex technical findings clearly for engineers and program stakeholders
• The ability to work on their own on site and to make sound technical judgments
• Willingness to be based at a customer site and to travel as the engagement requires
• BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field

Nice to have:

• Experience with automotive technologies including AUTOSAR, SOME/IP, UDS diagnostics and LIN
• Experience with HIL/VHIL benches and vehicle-level test rigs
• Prior experience as a resident or onsite engineer with an OEM or Tier-1 supplier
• Exposure to functional safety standards such as ISO 26262
