Staff Software Engineer, Middleware, Autonomy

Role Summary As a Software Engineer specializing in safety-critical self-driving middleware, you will play a vital role in the design, development, and deployment of software that underpins essential self-driving features. Your responsibilities encompass a range of technical tasks, from software development to architecture analysis, all contributing to the successful implementation of robust and reliable self-driving solutions. Responsibilities Design, develop, and deploy software within hardware abstraction middleware to enable safety-critical self-driving features Develop software working on Linux as well as real-time operating systems (QNX, FreeRTOS, etc.) Develop software working on a distributed and heterogeneous system (multiple processors/HW engines) Develop necessary tools to support development, debugging, and testing Assist in software-design and code reviews while assisting other developers on technical issues, design choices, and decision making Analysis of requirements, architecture, design, development, code review, quality assurance, and deployment of entire software engineering life cycle Coordinate with application development and cross-functional teams to enable and support middleware integration Qualifications B.S. / M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field 8+ years of experience developing production-grade software from requirements gathering Strong C++ programming skills Familiarity with at least one scripting language (for example Bash, Lua, Python) Experience in automotive or robotics software development Experience in software development for x86_64 and ARM architectures Experience working on heterogeneous systems with various types of hardware accelerators (GPU, ISP, Encoder, etc.) Experience using and/or building libraries for hardware accelerators (CUDA, TensorRT, OpenCL, etc.) Experience contributing to middleware and/or building abstraction layers Familiar with OpenCV, OpenVX, or relevant acceleration frameworks in perception applications Experience contributing to software tooling (for code auto-generation, test automation, fault injection, etc.) Good team player with great communication skills to drive cross-functional efforts in a fast-paced development environment Passionately motivated to take ideas from R&D phase to a product Software Development life cycle experience: from requirements gathering through to implementation and maintenance. #LI-Hybrid
