VP R&D

Location: Ness Ziona (IL)

Description

Eye-Net Mobile develops V2X collision-prevention technology for road safety. Our real-time, multi-user software uses existing cellular networks and phone sensors, with no additional hardware, to predict collisions between vehicles and all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists and micromobility riders. It runs on smartphones and smart devices and is built on a patented architecture.

We offer Eye-Net Protect, an SDK for third-party location-based apps such as navigation, parking and shared micromobility.

The VP R&D will own Eye-Net's technology and engineering. He will lead the R&D team, set the technical roadmap, and make sure our products reach customers and automotive partners with the accuracy, latency and reliability that safety applications demand.
