Description

Who are we?

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:

Autonomous vehicles platform includes multi computers and various sensors. Most of the components are connected to the system via network topology where network design is central to performance and safety of the AV platform. The Sensor & Compute team is therefore at the very heart of Oxa’s software and platform development. This team makes it possible for vehicles to know where they are and what is around them. Furthermore, by analysing the quality of data at run-time, the products of Sensor & Compute team allows vehicles to gauge and predict their own performance and safety margins. 

The challenges of the AV platform network design are low latency, high stability, automotive ethernet integration, accurate time sync and cyber security, which makes the Sensor & Compute team a fast-paced and exciting team. 

Due to the hands-on nature of this role, you will be required on-site in Oxford.

Responsibilities:

    • Developing AV network architecture and solutions with the cutting edge automotive grade sensors and computers
    • Designing reference network topology and configurations for different types of autonomous vehicles.
    • Developing diagnostic features to monitor network health (performance, degradation, fault detection). Developing system plugins to allow the autonomous system to make informed safety decisions on the basis of network health. 
    • Analysing network issues and improving network traffic stability and performance.
    • Networking implementation, configure and maintain network interfaces for communication between vehicle computers, sensors, and cloud services.
    • Develop and optimize Embedded Systems: Design and implement embedded Linux solutions for autonomous vehicle platforms, focusing on stability and performance.
    • Working with stakeholders across the company to understand requirements and provide tools to support vehicle commissioning, configurations, synchronisation
Requirements

What you need to succeed:

  • Solid experience in enterprise or embedded systems network engineering.
  • Proficiency in Embedded Linux, experience with kernel development, device drivers, and real-time operating systems (RTOS)
  • Ability to work at scale (Automation and traceable deployment)
  • Deep knowledge of Unix/Linux Network stacks and diagnostics.
  • Hands-on experience with embedded computers and controllers, preferably in automotive or robotics.
  • Experience with time-sensitive packet delivery.
  • Working knowledge of cellular modem connectivity.
  • Ability to communicate clearly on technical matters and work well with multiple stakeholders across several teams.

Extra kudos if you have:

  • Previous work in IoT and/or automotive fields.
  • Knowledge of Automotive Ethernet standards.
  • ISO 27001/26262 compliance work.
  • Solid Python or similar scripting capabilities
