Description
About the Company   At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.   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.   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.   Meet the Team: The Compute Platform MCU Applications team is responsible for developing all software that runs on the safety microcontroller in Torc’s autonomous trucks. These applications are critical for monitoring and aggregating hardware and software faults and relaying key information to the virtual driver. We also develop software interfaces between the Torc autonomous driver and the base vehicle. Our work ensures software commonality, architecture consistency, and system reliability in safety-critical environments. What You’ll Do: 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. This team is also responsible for building the communication layer between the Torc Autonomous Driver and the base vehicle platform. As a Software Engineer II, you’ll play a key role in supporting technical direction, mentoring junior developers, and driving engineering excellence. 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. Your impact will extend beyond code, helping to refine scalable frameworks and uphold best practices across the team. Write C++ applications for real-time embedded systems used in system monitoring and fault handling. 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. Provide hands-on mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers on software development best practices. Collaborate cross-functionally in an Agile development environment. What You’ll Need to Succeed: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics or a related field. 5+ years of industry experience in embedded systems or related domains. Strong foundation in software engineering principles and object-oriented programming. Proficiency in C++ with experience building components from scratch. Experience working with embedded real-time systems and microcontroller development in C++. Ability to mentor and support the growth of junior developers. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with good spatial reasoning. Bonus Points: Master’s degree with 4+ years of experience or PhD with 2+ years. Experience with Infineon Aurix microcontrollers. Familiarity with AUTOSAR architecture and standards. Prior work in robotics, autonomy, or other safety-critical systems.
