About the role

These applications are critical for monitoring and aggregating hardware and software faults and relaying key information to the virtual driver.
Our work ensures software commonality, architecture consistency, and system reliability in safety-critical environments.
As a Software Engineer II, you'll play a key role in supporting technical direction, mentoring junior developers, and driving engineering excellence.

In this role, you'll bring a strong foundation in software engineering principles, with deep expertise in C++, algorithm development, and software design.
You'll develop high-performance C++ applications that run on real-time embedded systems-powering critical features like system monitoring and fault handling.
From requirements and software design to coding, testing, and deployment automation-you'll own the full development lifecycle of a software component in a collaborative, Agile environment.
Develop software that bridges the Torc autonomous driving system with the underlying base vehicle.
Lead component design and implementation efforts for embedded applications from concept to deployment.
Execute the full software development lifecycle including requirements, design, coding, unit testing, integration, and automation.
Collaborate cross-functionally in an Agile development environment.
Ability to mentor and support the growth of junior developers.
A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners.
Now a part of the Daimler family, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics or a related field.
5+ years of industry experience in embedded systems or related domains.
Proficiency in C++ with experience building components from scratch.
Experience working with embedded real-time systems and microcontroller development in C++.

Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology, and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.
