We believe that the future of transportation is automated. Automated travel will be safer, more comfortable, more efficient and a powerful economic enabler for our communities. However, automating driving is a massively complex engineering challenge, requiring vehicles to navigate social norms, regional traffic patterns, unpredictable weather incidents, and a host of anomalous events. While billions of dollars have already been spent trying to solve this problem, a comprehensive answer remains frustratingly elusive. We believe that the final answer lies with roadway infrastructure.
Join us in building the roads of the future. Cavnue, which recently announced the closing of its Series A at $130M, is bridging technology and road infrastructure to realize a safer, more efficient, and more accessible future for automated transportation. Cavnue’s experienced team sits at the intersection of technology, infrastructure, and government—working together to develop and deploy the world’s most advanced roads. We are incorporating physical and digital infrastructure that unlock the full spectrum of capabilities of current and future automated vehicle technologies. We believe in a world in which road infrastructure shares in the complexity of autonomy and, instead of being another problem to solve for, becomes a core part of the solution.
The Role:
As a Software Engineering Technical Lead, you will head the definition, design, implementation, documentation, testing, and adoption of a flexible simulation program that supports our development progress, demonstrates the performance of our greater technology, facilitates collaboration with partners, and advances the connected vehicle ecosystem. You will make significant contributions towards an overall system platform that enables Cavnue to fulfill our roadmap for years to come. As a hands-on role, you will make direct contributions to our technology and capability, and add to our healthy and positive engineering culture.
Heading this effort, you will shape and have a massive impact on Cavnue, what we make, and how we engineer. Come join us and help us build this team!
Role Overview:
- Deliver Cavnue’s simulation program as described above.
- Manage, grow, elevate, and maintain a high performing engineering team
- Lead major projects and initiatives that extend well beyond your focus domain
