Embedded Software Lead

Cavnue's mission is to unlock autonomous mobility and save lives, time, and money. We do this by building the roads of the future.
Our mission at Cavnue is to build the world's most advanced roads, that are safer, offer greater throughput, improve access to affordable and high-quality public transit and shared mobility, and enable more efficient movement of goods.
You will lead the firmware engineer team and work alongside hardware teams in other disciplines (electrical, mechanical, optical, sensor, etc.) to design the sensors, actuators and networks for the roadside infrastructure. Your team will have to work closely with our software and perception teams so we can use the technology to stand up a "digital twin" of our roadways.
