About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Integrate and adapt NVIDIA DRIVE Active Safety software on customer development and production vehicles
  • Triage and analyze issues across the active safety chain, from sensor input through perception and fusion to maneuver behavior
  • Collaborate with customer teams and NVIDIA engineering teams across Europe, the US, APAC, and India to identify root causes and deliver program-level solutions
  • Configure and tune active safety software for different vehicle platforms, sensor configurations, vehicle geometries, and braking performance
  • Implement targeted C++ or Python adaptations, debugging tools, and analysis workflows to resolve customer integration and functional issues
  • Measure functional performance through recorded-data replay and in-vehicle testing
  • Communicate findings to customers and NVIDIA engineering teams
  • Work on vehicle bring-up, software flashing, data logging, testing, and functional validation

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • At least 8+ years of experience in ADAS development and triage, including in-vehicle activities
  • Strong understanding of Active Safety functions from concept to validation, including hazard mitigation and functional safety principles
  • Experience designing and implementing threat assessment algorithms, including time-to-collision (TTC)
  • Hands-on development of longitudinal and lateral intervention planners, translating threat assessments into smooth, physically feasible braking and steering commands
  • Strong understanding of radar and camera perception outputs, including object confidence and classification uncertainty
  • Proficiency in Linux and/or QNX-based embedded environments
  • Ability to systematically isolate issues using log analysis, data review, and cross-functional technical coordination
  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Electrical, or Automotive Engineering (or equivalent practical experience)
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Valid driver’s license and readiness for road testing and travel
  • Experience with active safety software or related perception, fusion, planning, or controller work
  • Production experience with camera- and radar-based active safety systems
  • Experience integrating ADAS software into customer vehicle platforms and supporting automotive series programs
  • Experience with commercial vehicles and commercial-vehicle-specific active safety regulations
  • Deep understanding of Euro NCAP protocols, including scoring optimization for Safe Driving and Crash Avoidance stages
  • Experience with data-driven development loops, fleet-data triage, corner-case analysis, and feedback to model-training teams
  • Hands-on experience with AI/ML workflows and deep neural network development or integration
