Embedded Systems Jobs

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 the Embedded Software Engineer, you will work alongside hardware teams in other disciplines: Electrical, Mechanical, Optical, Sensor, etc.) to design the sensors, actuators and networks for the roadside infrastructure.  This team will work closely with our software and perception teams to embed the technology to stand up a “digital twin” of our roadways. If you like writing high quality firmware, deploying systems in the real world, multi-disciplinary collaboration, and building teams, we want you to come join our team!
