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

Your team is responsible for taking our vehicles' understanding of the world and turning it into real-world driving behaviour - whatever the vehicle or application. You'll be at the sharp end of our system, making a real and immediate impact on vehicle performance across our vehicle fleet around the world.

Your Role

Our successful candidate will use their existing controls and vehicle integration experience to design and develop software to seamlessly integrate our autonomy stack into our customer and development vehicles. 

You will:

  • Identify, understand and respond to challenges and opportunities for vehicle control presented by specific vehicle platforms or operational environments.
  • Contribute to our core control algorithms and associated tools to maximise control performance across the fleet and optimise new vehicle deployments.
  • Be among the first to get your hands on new and cutting-edge vehicle projects, working with customers and suppliers to reach Universal Autonomy.
  • Working as part of a team, supporting and guiding team members, suggesting and discussing high level approaches to solve problems, code reviews & pair programming.
  • Contribute to agile sprint cycles to deliver on time, including planning, reviewing, and highlighting risk or scope creep against project requirements

Requirements

What you need to succeed:

    • An engineering-related degree and professional experience in software engineering, control systems and/or systems integration for robotics, motorsport or automotive.
    • Production level C++ development experience.
    • Experience working with vehicle networks (e.g. CAN) and electromechanical components.
    • Proven experience delivering real things to real customers.
    • Proven record of leading and delivering projects as part of a team.
    • Effective technical communication and leadership skills.
    • An appreciation for the role of safety, security and ethics in robotics and AI.

Extra kudos:

    • Experience using MATLAB/Simulink for automotive software development
    • An understanding of vehicle dynamics & control, and experience applying this to real-world problems
    • Experience working with highly complex, safety-critical systems
    • Experience testing your work in the field or on the track
    • An understanding of automotive software development and validation practices

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
