Senior Software Engineer

In this role, you ll collaborate across firmware, data science, and product teams to deliver solutions that are not only technically robust, but also critical to safety, compliance, and business intelligence for OEMs and fleet operators.

real-time intelligence layer of connected vehicles

• Lead the Design and Evolution of Scalable Data Systems:

  Architect end-to-end real-time and batch data processing pipelines that power mission-critical applications such as trip intelligence, predictive diagnostics, and geofence-based alerts. Drive system-level design decisions and guide the team through technology tradeoffs.

• Mentor and Uplift the Engineering Team:

  Act as a technical mentor to junior and mid-level engineers. Conduct design reviews, help grow data engineering best practices, and champion engineering excellence across the team.

• Partner Across the Stack and the Org:

  Collaborate cross-functionally with firmware, frontend, product, and data science teams to align on roadmap goals. Translate ambiguous business requirements into scalable, fault-tolerant data systems with high availability and performance guarantees.

• Drive Innovation and Product Impact:

  Shape the technical vision for real-time and near-real-time data applications. Identify and introduce cutting-edge open-source or cloud-native tools that improve system reliability, observability, and cost efficiency.

• Operationalize Systems at Scale:

  Own the reliability, scalability, and performance of the pipelines you and the team build. Lead incident postmortems, drive long-term stability improvements, and establish SLAs/SLOs that balance customer value with engineering complexity.

• Contribute to Strategic Technical Direction:

  Provide thought leadership on evolving architectural patterns, such as transitioning from streaming-first to hybrid batch-stream systems for cost and scale efficiency. Proactively identify bottlenecks, tech debt, and scalability risks.

• 7+ years of experience

  in software engineering with a strong emphasis on building and scaling distributed systems in production environments.

• Deep understanding of computer science fundamentals

  including data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and distributed computing principles.
• Proven expertise in designing, building, and maintaining

  large-scale, low-latency data systems

  for real-time and batch processing.

• Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures

  and messaging systems like

  Apache Kafka

  Kubernetes

  , serverless compute (e.g., AWS Lambda, GCP Cloud Functions), and containerized deployments using CI/CD pipelines.
• Proficiency with cloud platforms, especially

  Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

  or

  Amazon Web Services (AWS)

  , and services like BigQuery, S3/GCS, IAM, and managed Kubernetes (GKE/EKS).
• Familiarity with

  observability stacks

  (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) and an understanding of operational excellence in production environments.
  Ability to

  balance pragmatism with technical rigor

  , navigating ambiguity to design scalable and cost-effective solutions.
• Passionate about building platforms that empower internal teams and deliver meaningful insights to customers, especially within the

  automotive, mobility, or IoT domains
