About The Position

Applied Intuition is seeking a Software Integration Engineer to serve as its technical presence at a major automotive customer’s development site. The engineer will work alongside customer engineering teams to integrate and validate Applied Intuition’s E/E platform software on test benches and development vehicles, supporting deliveries through customer acceptance. The role combines hands-on integration and analysis with direct customer engagement and requires effective independent work on site and clear communication with customer and distributed internal teams.

The position is based at a customer site, with travel as the engagement requires. Applied Intuition’s general expectation is that full-time employees work primarily from an Applied Intuition office five days per week; the posting describes this role as customer-site based.

Requirements

• Technical knowledge of body, ADAS, and infotainment domains.
• Hands-on debugging experience on real hardware and test benches, including log and trace analysis.
• Confident use of standard lab instrumentation, such as multimeters, bus measurement equipment, and JTAG debug interfaces.
• Familiarity with embedded operating systems such as Linux, QNX, or Android Automotive.
• Experience with CI/CD and release processes on large software projects.
• Strong written communication skills, including the ability to clearly summarize complex technical findings for engineers and program stakeholders.
• Ability to work independently on site and make sound technical judgments.

Responsibilities

• Perform on-site bench and vehicle integration, including software flashing, board bring-up, power mode testing, and debugging CAN/CAN-FD, SOME/IP, and Automotive Ethernet communication.
• Triage findings by reproducing issues, isolating their source, and documenting them with logs and analysis for engineering teams.
• Own defects through resolution and keep the customer informed of their status.
• Support on-site milestone deliveries through smoke testing, release validation, and test execution.
• Lead technical working sessions with customer domain engineers across software, hardware, and validation.
• Document bench configurations, flashing procedures, and integration steps so setup knowledge is preserved and transferable.
