Software Engineer - C++

$125k - $222k

Applied Intuition

C++ Software Engineer

Applied Intuition, Inc. is powering the future of physical AI. Founded in 2017 and now valued at $15 billion, the Silicon Valley company is creating the digital infrastructure needed to bring intelligence to every moving machine on the planet. Applied Intuition services the automotive, defense, trucking, construction, mining and agriculture industries in three core areas: tools and infrastructure, operating systems, and autonomy. Eighteen of the top 20 global automakers, as well as the United States military and its allies, trust the company's solutions to deliver physical intelligence. Applied Intuition is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, with offices in Washington, D.C.; San Diego; Ft. Walton Beach, Florida; Ann Arbor, Michigan; London; Stuttgart; Munich; Stockholm; Bangalore; Seoul; and Tokyo.

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.

Our team is looking for C++ software engineers interested in designing elegant solutions to difficult problems within autonomous systems and robotics. Whether applying your experience to application-level onboard software in a modern C++ codebase powering on-road products or building systems that operate 200+ ton mining vehicles on deformable off-road terrain, you'll play a key role in building the autonomy stack powering the next generation of intelligent vehicles. If you're motivated by complex systems, ownership across boundaries, and real-world impact, this is where architecture meets autonomy.

At Applied Intuition, you will:

  • Design and implement onboard application software in modern C++.
  • Collaborate with cross functional teams to align interfaces, contracts, and execution models across the stack.
  • Closely collaborate with engineers across the stack.
  • Contribute directly to building up an autonomy program.

We're looking for someone who has:

  • Bachelor's in Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field.
  • 1+ years of experience in shipping complex software in C++11 and above.

Nice to have:

  • A MSc or PhD in computer science or applied mathematics with coursework or research experience in robotics.
  • Experience developing onboard or embedded application software (e.g., autonomy, ADAS, robotics).
  • Experience with driver assistance or autonomous driving systems or off-road products.

Compensation at Applied Intuition for eligible roles includes base salary, equity, and benefits. Base salary is a single component of the total compensation package, which may also include equity in the form of options and/or restricted stock units, comprehensive health, dental, vision, life and disability insurance coverage, 401k retirement benefits with employer match, learning and wellness stipends, and paid time off. Note that benefits are subject to change and may vary based on jurisdiction of employment.

Applied Intuition pay ranges reflect the minimum and maximum intended target base salary for new hire salaries for the position. The actual base salary offered to a successful candidate will additionally be influenced by a variety of factors including experience, credentials & certifications, educational attainment, skill level requirements, interview performance, and the level and scope of the position.

Please reference the job posting's subtitle for where this position will be located. For pay transparency purposes, the base salary range for this full-time position in the location listed is: $125,000 - $222,000 USD annually.

Don't meet every single requirement? If you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

Consequently, the parties agree that, as applicable, they will abide by the requirements of 41 CFR 60-1.4(a), 41 CFR 60-300.5(a) and 41 CFR 60-741.5(a) and that these laws are incorporated herein by reference.
