About Harbinger

Harbinger Motors Inc. is a Southern California-based electric vehicle manufacturer on a mission to transform the automotive and transportation industries, bringing to market EVs developed from the ground up to address the needs of the Medium Duty vehicle industry. This broad, and to date poorly addressed, market segment includes class 4 to 7 commercial delivery vehicles, RVs and utility vehicles, among others. Leveraging a foundation of proprietary, in-house developed vehicle technologies, Harbinger's first-of-its-kind EV platform will bring enhancements in vehicle performance, durability and operator comfort. And importantly, Harbinger's vehicles will be priced for zero acquisition premium relative to traditional gas- and diesel-based competitors, removing one of the most tenacious barriers to EV adoption.

Harbinger's team, with operations in Southern California and Michigan, includes industry veterans with expertise in powertrain, battery, chassis and software development, along with leaders in advanced manufacturing, corporate development, operations and finance. Our team members come from leading innovators, both in and out of the automotive industry, including Tesla, Rivian, Canoo, Ford, Anduril, and SpaceX.

Founded in 2021, Harbinger is a venture-backed startup on a rapid growth trajectory, looking for candidates that thrive on tackling complex challenges and who share in our passion to bring clean transportation alternatives to a segment of the market starving for innovation.


Harbinger is a young commercial electric vehicle (EV) company focused on the forgotten and the most crucial part of our transportation needs, the medium duty trucking space. We plan to bring electrification to class 4-7 commercial vehicles with customer centric active safety features which are natively integrated into our system. We are currently seeking a passionate and highly motivated individual to join our ADAS team as our Software Engineer.  


As a Software Engineer specializing in ADAS software, you will play a crucial role in developing and optimizing software that powers our Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). You will work closely with vehicle controls, software teams to deploy and maintain ADAS application software that implements AI inference and real-time video processing in our vehicles. Your work will influence both current and future generations of our ADAS platforms.

What You’ll Do:

  • Implement robust ADAS software, acting as the bridge between controls/perception engineers and software integration engineers.
  • Develop tools and methods to enhance the functionality and performance of ADAS systems.
  • Verify and validate code generated by MATLAB and Simulink to ensure seamless integration and optimization for best resource use.
  • Write well-structured, testable, efficient, and maintainable code. Participate in code reviews and maintain high standards of software development.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to define hardware-software interactions and ensure seamless integration across the entire ADAS stack.
  • Build prototypes and contribute to the implementation phase as needed.
  • Ensure ADAS software meets functional safety standards such as ISO 26262 and contributes to the overall safety architecture of the vehicle.


What You’ll Bring:

  • Expertise in C/C++, RTOS, and real-time systems, with a focus on low-latency and high-performance processing.
  • Experience with GPU programming using CUDA or OpenCL, and familiarity with AI inference frameworks like TensorRT or PyTorch.
  • The ideal candidate will have a strong background in working with various sensor data, including camera, LiDAR, and radar systems
  • Familiarity with ROS 2, including Lifecycle Nodes, DDS, and real-time communication protocols.
  • Experience with automotive communication protocols such as CAN, Automotive Ethernet, and ISO 26262 safety standards.
  • Strong commitment to software best practices, including clean coding, code reviews, and thorough documentation.
