Senior/Staff In-Vehicle Experience C++ Engineer
Zoox
Foster City, CA, USA
Posted on Friday, December 9, 2022
In this role, you will be responsible for the most critical in-vehicle component for what we call “Ride Management." It's the primary source of truth of the ride state and makes critical decisions about what to present to riders and other systems at any point in the ride, as well as when to react to input from various other software and hardware components.
You will own the Human Interface Controller (HIC) which interacts directly with various in-vehicle hardware responsible for serving our riders. For example, if the rider presses the button to change AC setting, this goes through a secure gateway into this Ride State Machine which delegates handling to HIC. A lot of in-vehicle functionality that will serve riders needs corresponding work in the Ride State Machine and Human Interface Controller, so this role requires not just great CS thinking, but also a passion for providing the best experience to the end users/riders as well as collaboration with teams of engineers for other in-vehicle components.
