Oxford, United Kingdom Oxa Full time

Oxa is enabling the transition to self-driving vehicles through an initial focus on the most commercially advanced sector; the autonomous shuttling of goods and people.

We are home to some of the world’s leading experts on autonomous vehicles, creating solutions such as Oxa Driver, equipping vehicles with full self-driving functionality; Oxa MetaDriver, using Generative AI to accelerate and assure the safety of deployments; and Oxa Hub, a set of cloud-based offerings for autonomous fleet management. Our technology is being deployed across the UK and the U.S, and we’re partnering with a fast-growing ecosystem of operators, vehicle OEMs and equipment makers serving autonomous transportation globally as it advances.

Based in Oxford, and with offices in Canada and the U.S, Oxa was founded in 2014 and is  growing rapidly (350+ ‘Oxbots’ to date). Our purpose is to change the way the Earth moves, through an uncompromising focus on safety, efficiency and explainability of our AI approaches. The company has attracted $225 million from leading investors so far, with $140 million raised in the last Series C funding round in January 2023.

Your Team

You will join our Vehicle Modelling & Control Integration team, where we develop the systems to optimse individual-vehicle performance across our worldwide fleet, and provide insight around Oxa about how our vehicles behave.

Your Role

As a Software Engineer (Controls - Simulation), you will also work as part of the Simulation family, with a focus on software development in our simulator to enable vehicle modelling and configuration components.

In this role, you will:

  • Work in the Simulation family and VMCI team to define and develop effective interfaces to vehicle models.
  • Develop the Oxa Simulator to be capable of representative behaviour across current and potential future vehicles. 
  • Work with data, infrastructure and fleet teams to develop systems to update, measure and refine the quality of the simulator model component.

Requirements

What you need to succeed:

  • A Master’s degree in a related field (Control Eng, Mech Eng, Aerospace, Robotics, Mechatronics) is desired
  • A Bachelor’s degree in a related field (Control Eng, Mech Eng, Aerospace, Robotics, Mechatronics) may be acceptable with appropriate experience
  • Experience with C++ algorithm development and deployment
  • Experience with Real-time simulation of vehicle systems
  • A background in Vehicle dynamics and control

Extra kudos if you have any experience of:

  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for vehicle dynamics applications
  • Experience working with one or more third-party simulation or physics engine (e.g. CARLA, CarSim, CarMaker, Bullet, PhysX)
  • Proven agility in fast-changing environments. As a scale-up, we’re constantly evolving so our people need to evolve too for us to succeed together.
  • A customer-centric outlook. Chances are you won’t be directly customer facing, but we value people who anticipate and prioritise the needs of our customers. We call it ‘inventing on their behalf.’

The Candidate Journey:  Multi-Step and Two-Way

No-one wants to feel like a square peg in a round hole, so this process is designed to give you every chance to get the measure of us, and us of you. The various stages give you every opportunity to show your unique strengths and qualities, and enables each of us to establish if we’re a good fit for the other.  If the fit is good and you’re selected, you’re then in a position to do great work and thrive, which is what everyone wants.

Benefits

We provide:

  • Competitive salary, benchmarked against the market and reviewed annually
  • Company share programme
  • Hybrid and/or flexible work arrangements
  • An outstanding £3,000 flexible benefits including private medical insurance, critical illness coverage, life assurance, EAP, group income protection
  • Funded relocation support 
  • Fully funded Visa sponsorship if required
  • A salary exchange pension plan
  • 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
  • A pet-friendly office environment
  • Safe assigned spaces for team members with individual and diverse needs

So ours is a culture that celebrates humanity in all its diversity and richness, and uses difference as fuel to grow and succeed together. Everyone is welcome, everyone has a voice, everyone is valued. And our work and people are all the better for it.
