Bonus Qualifications * Experience with ROS 2 (nodes, launch, TF2, bags, QoS) or other robotics middleware frameworks. * Experience with CAN tooling (SocketCAN, DBC workflows) and/or ECU/firmware update flows. * Experience with containerized deployments (e.g., Docker) or production deployment patterns on vehicles. * Familiarity with profiling tools (perf, top/htop, valgrind, gdb) and performance tuning. * Exposure to OTA / device management systems (e.g., AWS Greengrass) or fleet rollout practices. * Understanding of safety-oriented development practices (fault handling, watchdogs, redundancy concepts). * Experience with simulation environments (e.g., NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar) for integration and regression testing. * CI/CD experience for robotics stacks (automated builds/tests, hardware-in-the-loop or log replay workflows). ## Description This is a hands-on role working with Linux systems, real sensors, and real vehicles-partnering closely with senior robotics, autonomy, and platform engineers to ship systems that are stable, debuggable, and performant in industrial environments., * Integrate and validate sensors such as LiDAR, cameras, IMU/GNSS, and other vehicle hardware. * Own mission-critical system pieces: state management, health monitoring, diagnostics, logging, and fleet-ready tooling. * Work on vehicle communications including CAN bus (interfaces, message handling, reliability, basic ECU/firmware touchpoints). * Build and maintain the glue that makes the stack work: drivers, bring-up scripts, config management, calibration workflows, and time synchronization basics. * Troubleshoot complex issues across hardware + software + networking (timing drift, dropped frames, driver issues, flaky connections, bandwidth constraints). * Profile and optimize performance for real-time-ish workloads (high-bandwidth sensor streams, CPU/memory bottlenecks, startup stability). * Help create and maintain integration tests and validation workflows (reproducible tests, automated checks, regression catches, log replay). * Collaborate across perception, localization, controls, and product teams to integrate systems cleanly and ship improvements quickly. * Write clear documentation for integration procedures, system configuration, and "how to debug this when it breaks." ## Related Videos - [How to develop an autonomous car end-to-end: Robotic Drive and the mobility revolution](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/22-how-to-develop-an-autonomous-car-end-to-end-robotic-drive-and-the-mobility-revolution) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
