Job description

The Senior Embedded Engineer role at Uber's AV Labs focuses on developing firmware and drivers for autonomous vehicle sensors and components. The team is dedicated to creating high-quality data for autonomous partners by pioneering next-generation hardware architecture. This position involves critical projects from hardware bring-up to deployment of in-house designed production hardware. The engineer will play a key role in ensuring the reliability of the autonomous data collection fleet.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of professional experience developing embedded software using modern C/C++ in RTOS or bare-metal environments.
  • Strong experience writing firmware and device drivers for automotive-grade components and autonomous vehicle sensors.
  • Hands-on experience with sensor integration, board bring-up, and hardware debugging tools.
  • Demonstrated experience contributing to embedded hardware systems from prototyping to production deployment.

Responsibilities

  • Design, write, and maintain robust firmware and low-level device drivers for automotive-grade components and AV sensors.
  • Execute the transition to production by taking ownership of board bring-up and hardware validation.
  • Collaborate closely with electrical and hardware engineering teams to implement hardware-software interfaces.
  • Utilize hardware debugging tools and software profiling to troubleshoot system-level issues and optimize data pipelines.
  • Act as a technical resource and mentor within the hardware team, contributing to best practices for embedded software architecture.

Benefits

  • Employees at Uber are often offered comprehensive health, life, disability, and mental wellness benefits, along with wellbeing stipends, travel medical coverage, and monthly Uber credits for Rides and Eats.
