Requirements

  • Very good understanding of software development for automation tools, post-processing, and application development.
  • Highly proficient in Python and have working knowledge of MATLAB for analysis, modeling, and automation.
  • Have experience with object-oriented software design and API development.
  • Have experience working with data from different sources and in different formats.
  • Have strong experience working in Linux-based development environments, including shell scripting and automation.
  • Have experience with containerization and environment management, such as Docker or similar tools.
  • Have a basic understanding of ADAS/AD features or other physical systems.
  • Have a minimum BS in Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a similar field and 3+ years of automotive-industry engineering experience, or a minimum MS in one of those fields and 1+ years of automotive-industry engineering experience.
  • Have the capability and creativity to complete projects with unconventional ideas in a highly constrained, innovative startup environment.
  • Have excellent verbal and written communication skills and an ownership mindset.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks and tooling to orchestrate ADAS/AD software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop simulations, including test execution, result collection, and reporting.
  • Design and maintain tooling for large-scale regression execution, including scheduling, failure triage, log management, and metrics extraction.
  • Support scenario-based validation by enabling tooling for scenario configuration, parameterization, execution, and result evaluation.
  • Create tools for data visualizations, either from scratch or by leveraging open-source solutions such as Foxglove.
  • Update and maintain automation tools based on feedback from users of the HIL and SIL systems.
  • Develop an understanding of HIL and SIL simulation setups for L2++ and L3 ADAS/AD driving, safety, and parking functions.
  • Develop, maintain, and scale CI/CD pipelines for ADAS simulation workflows, including per-commit smoke tests and nightly regressions, and integrate them with version control, build systems, and simulation farms.
  • Monitor pipeline health, reduce execution time, and improve overall simulation reliability and debuggability.
  • Support HIL and SIL development as necessary.
  • Work with suppliers as necessary and represent the Lucid ADAS systems validation team.

Desired Qualifications

  • Previous experience working in HIL and SIL setups for validating ADAS features at an OEM or Tier 1.
  • Experience managing large volumes of simulation data, logs, and performance metrics.
  • Experience with C++ for simulation interfaces or performance-critical tooling.
  • Experience with scenario standards and formats such as OpenSCENARIO and OpenDRIVE.
  • Experience integrating simulation tools with ROS2 or similar middleware.
  • Understanding of SOTIF, ISO 26262, and NCAP.
  • Broad understanding of various ADAS/AD systems and the interactions between mechanical, electrical, and software components within the system.
  • Proficiency with agile development tools and environments such as Jira and Jama.
