About the role

We are looking for a bright engineer to help our customers solve complex technical problems across Applied Intuition's full product portfolio: Vehicle OS (including developer tooling and IVI), Tools for Vehicle Intelligence (ADP/APX), and Self-Driving Systems (SDS). This role is ideal for a candidate with strong automotive software foundations who thrives on variety, is energized by learning new technical domains quickly, and wants to engage with the broadest possible range of cutting-edge automotive challenges.

One engagement might involve guiding an OEM's IVI team through an Android Automotive OS integration; the next could be a deep-dive architecture review with an ADAS validation team, or a technical workshop on autonomy stack deployment with a Tier 1 supplier. This kind of breadth is rare, and for the right person, it is the most accelerated learning environment in the automotive software industry. You will build expertise across SDV, simulation, and autonomy faster than any siloed role would allow, while working directly with some of the most ambitious internal and external engineering teams worldwide.

At Applied Intuition, you will:

• Support pre-sales and post-sales customer engagements across Vehicle OS, SDS and Tooling pillars as needed

• Conduct technical discovery, demos, and proof-of-concept work across Applied Intuition’s product suite

• Adapt technical depth to whichever product pillar is most relevant for a given customer or opportunity

• Build cross-pillar proposals where a customer engagement spans multiple product areas

• Work closely with Applied Intuition’s product and solution specialists to ramp up on new product areas

• Manage multiple concurrent customer engagements and maintain clear internal stakeholder communication

We're looking for someone who has:

• 4+ years of experience in automotive software development or technical customer engagement, spanning more than one product domain (e.g., ADAS + SDV, simulation + vehicle architecture, IVI + middleware)

• Strong automotive software foundations with the ability to engage credibly on topics across E/E architecture, ADAS validation, and/or autonomy systems

• Demonstrated ability to learn new technical domains quickly and apply them in a customer-facing context

• Track record of managing complex, multi-stakeholder technical programs

• Degree in computer science, electrical engineering, or related field

• Programming experience in Python and/or C++

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English; German and/or additional European language is a significant plus

Nice to have:

• Experience spanning both pillars: Vehicle OS/SDV/IVI and ADAS simulation/tooling

• Prior Solution Engineering, Field Application Engineering, or technical pre-sales experience

• Experience at an OEM, Tier 1, and/or automotive technology company

• Familiarity with AUTOSAR (Classic and/or Adaptive)

• Knowledge of ISO 26262, SOTIF, or ASPICE

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.
