Role

Who you are

  • 2+ years of experience in managing people working in a software engineering team in a fast-paced environment
  • Deep understanding of C++ for Embedded development
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
  • Proven experience in reliable execution and defining goals for the team
  • Ability to lead the team in solving complex embedded software problems and deliver software reliably

Desirable

  • Experience with software development practices such as ASPICE, ISO26262, and ISO21434
  • Experience working with Classic or Adaptive AUTOSAR framework
  • Experience going through customer requirements and summarizing key software deliverables

What the job involves

  • We are looking for a hands-on Software Engineering Manager to lead and grow our C++ Software Engineering Team
  • Lead our Core C++ Software Team. This team is responsible for developing software features for our LiDAR sensors
  • Manage cross-functional activities like feature discussion, design reviews, and timeline determination
  • Participate in software design discussions and contribute technically to them. Depending on the project, sometimes contribute code

Our take

The development of self-driving cars presents enormous opportunities for transportation, shipping, and ride-hailing industries, but getting these cars to run flawlessly is difficult. Cameras and radar sensors are used to detect obstacles for safe automated driving, but existing technology does not analyze enough data to meet these expectations.

Aeva builds sensory perception technology that maps the physical world around a vehicle on a granular basis to contribute towards the development of fully self-driving cars. The sensory system relies on what the company describes as being the world’s first 4D LiDAR-on-Chip. This technology comprises of sensors that detect objects and events up to 300m away, recognize velocity-per-pixel, and are immune to interference from neighboring frequencies.

Companies such as Tesla are already developing successful and safe fully self-driving software for their cars, but Aeva's approach to LiDar presents some serious competition to the existing camera-based technology. Despite further competition from Luminar and Velodyne, Aeva remains unique due to the condensed presentation of their technology into a tiny chip.
