Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Software Integration Engineer - **Company:** Applied Intuition - **Location:** United States (Remote available) - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** C++ (Programming Language), Ubuntu (Operating System), Configuration Management, Computer Engineering, Software Debugging, Linux, Embedded C, Middleware, Network Topologies, Python (Programming Language), Multipoint Control Unit, Network Segmentation, Real-Time Operating Systems, Ansible, Static Timing Analysis, Systems Architecture, Systems Integration, Virtual Local Area Networks, Yocto, Infrastructure Automation Frameworks, Information Technology, GNSS - **Published:** September 17, 2026 - **Apply:** https://startup.jobs/software-integration-engineer-self-driving-appliedintuition-com-10089121 ## About the Role * 5+ years of experience integrating software and hardware onto vehicles, robots, or other physical systems with real actuators and sensors * BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field * Strong C or C++, plus working Python, with experience writing and debugging code that runs on Linux and talks to hardware * Hands-on experience with automotive networks (CAN, CAN-FD, automotive Ethernet) and the tooling around them * Working knowledge of Linux systems and networking: building or maintaining machine images, configuring network interfaces, and automating setup with configuration management tools * Demonstrated ownership of at least one full platform integration from architecture and interface definition through on-vehicle validation and handoff * Comfort working on vehicles and test benches * Track record of driving integration problems to closure across team boundaries * A willingness to participate in on-vehicle and test-track testing Nice to have: * System architecture and networking: compute and network topology design for vehicles, VLAN and switch configuration, PTP/gPTP and time-sync debugging, DDS or similar middleware * Drive-by-wire and control: building DBW interfaces from OEM network specs, integrating third-party DBW systems, motion control, vehicle dynamics * Sensors: lidar, radar, and camera bring-up, SerDes camera pipelines, calibration, GNSS/INS and IMU integration * Embedded and real-time: RTOS on automotive-grade MCUs, timing analysis, safety-oriented embedded C or C++ * Platform and automation: Yocto, Ubuntu image customization, Ansible or equivalent at fleet scale, CI for on-vehicle software * Domain: functional safety practice (ISO 26262 or similar) or working within a safety case; heavy or off-highway vehicles ## Description The Autonomy Integration team bridges Applied Intuition's autonomy software with real vehicles, owning compute, networking, sensors, actuation, embedded execution, and platform automation across passenger and industrial vehicles. The team works across 0-to-1 bring-up and 1-to-many scalable deployment, with hands-on vehicle and test-track work and ~10% travel. At Applied Intuition, you will: * Platform integration, end to end - Lead the integration of autonomy software onto new vehicle platforms, from system architecture and interface definition through first engaged drive and handoff * System architecture - Design the on-vehicle compute topology, network segmentation, power and data paths, and the interfaces between autonomy compute, safety controllers, and vehicle ECUs * Actuation and sensing - Build and validate the drive-by-wire interface, whether from an OEM network specification or by integrating a third-party system, and bring up the sensor suite (lidar, radar, camera) including drivers, time sync, and calibration * Compute and real-time execution - Own the Linux software baseline and configuration management that make a vehicle reproducible, and port control software to real-time embedded targets where the platform requires it * Validation and scale - Build bench setups, on-vehicle test procedures, and automation that catch regressions early and let the team grow the fleet without growing the headcount to match * Technical leadership - Debug across the full software-to-actuator boundary, set direction on which interfaces and tools become standard, mentor engineers, and own the documentation and specs that other teams integrate against ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Software defines the vehicle: Why customers and developers will love cars even more](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1114-software-defines-the-vehicle-why-customers-and-developers-will-love-cars-even-more) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Car's are Technology on Wheels - Impact of Software and IT Competence in Automotive](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/780-car-s-are-technology-on-wheels-impact-of-software-and-it-competence-in-automotive) - [For the Cars and the Curious: Android Drift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/499-for-the-cars-and-the-curious-android-drift) - [Discover the open source trio you didn’t expect: .NET and PostgreSQL on Linux](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2042-discover-the-open-source-trio-you-didn-t-expect-net-and-postgresql-on-linux) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Software Engineer Career: Things You Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/143-software-engineer-career-things-you-should-know)
