Software Engineer, C++ (Onboard Platform) at Applied · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Applied Intuition is building Level 4 autonomous technology for vehicles deployed around the world. The reliability of the L4 system is a key element for our autonomy program, and a must-have to safely enable driverless operations on public roads. In the rare case where the system has a hardware or software problem, it needs to be able to detect it and safely bring the vehicle to a safe state if that happens. To achieve this level of reliability and safety, every component of the stack needs to be built to meet the highest quality bar, and that is especially true for the platform layer at the base of the entire system.
Our team builds the foundation of the Level 4 stack, starting with autonomous trucks. We sit between the autonomy algorithms and the vehicle, and we work with every team in the program to take the fleet from supervised testing to driverless operation. Your work will run on real trucks on public roads, and it will be measured by how far the fleet drives between failures.
At Applied Intuition, you will:
Shape how Level 4 autonomy and physical AI reach the real world, with software that runs on vehicles on public roads.
Design the runtime architecture of the onboard stack: how processes are scheduled, how they communicate, and how the system degrades when a component fails.
Combine state-of-the-art AI and classical modules to meet the high performance and high reliability requirements
Trace on-road failures from an application symptom to its root cause in the kernel, the hardware, or the middleware, and fix it.
Make a real-time system faster and more predictable on production compute, and prove it with measurements.
Decide how the platform detects and escalates faults, up to commanding the truck to pull over safely.
Build the measurement systems that tell the whole program whether the stack is getting faster and more reliable.
Bring the Applied Intuition self-driving stack up on new compute platforms and new vehicles.
Work alongside some of the strongest engineers in autonomy across perception, planning, controls, hardware, and safety, and set broad, cross-functional technical direction with them.
