We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments.

About the role
We are looking for highly motivated Software Engineers to focus on developing core middleware components and services within Applied’s software-defined vehicle (SDV) platform. This role requires expertise in C++ to build robust, high-performance communication and system management solutions. You will be instrumental in developing the foundational software layers that enable advanced vehicle functions, working on challenging problems in distributed systems, high-speed networking, and functional safety architecture.
At Applied Intuition, you will:
  • Design and implement core platform services using C++, focusing on multi-threading, concurrency, and performance optimization
  • Develop and extend communication middleware utilizing protocols such as SOME/IP or DDS (and ideally Protobuf/gRPC) across the platform
  • Work specifically within the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform functional clusters (e.g., Adaptive Platform Core, Communication Management, Execution Management, State Management)
  • Apply expertise in networking and the Ethernet stack to ensure reliable and high-throughput data exchange in the vehicle
  • Contribute to the robust design of system management functions (e.g., Health Management, Diagnostics) within the SDV architecture
We're looking for someone who has:
  • 5+ years of experience in shipping complex, production software, ideally in the embedded, automotive, or robotics domains
  • BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • Strong C++ expertise, including a solid understanding of multi-threading programming, mutexes, and design patterns
  • Experience with communication middleware such as SOME/IP or DDS
  • Working knowledge of networking concepts built on the Ethernet stack
  • The drive to take initiative in a fast-paced environment and take ownership over technical decisions
Nice to have:
  • Experience with Embedded systems and C programming
  • Expertise in one or more AUTOSAR Adaptive functional clusters (e.g., Adaptive Platform Core, Communication Management, Execution Management, Diagnostics, Health Management)
  • Experience with advanced inter-process communication (IPC) mechanisms like Protobuf or gRPC
  • Strong familiarity with POSIX operating systems (Linux) knowledge, including system calls, runtime behavior, and memory management
  • Experience working with real-time or safety-critical distributed systems
