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
The Solutions Team is an emerging team at Oxa that is a unique blend of technical and commercial problem solvers that have experience in deploying robotic systems in the field and solving problems with autonomy. Members of the team have the opportunity to try on many hats - both technically across the autonomy stack and spanning from writing code to whiteboarding with customers to find the best solution.
The Solutions Team specifies (and may develop) tools required for delivering successful solutions. The team strives to understand all parts of the system to a level in which they can present and explain each of those components/modules of technology to a customer and how it contributed to the overall solution.
Members of the Solutions Team are a dynamic and engaged group of people from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds, all working together towards our goal of Universal Autonomy with an obsessive customer focus.
You will be contributing to the technical development and delivery of a customer solution using one or more products of our autonomy stack. As you progress, you will be provided opportunities to lead the delivery of customer solutions. This is a fast-paced, wide-reaching role that will provide exposure across all components in our architecture and requires an broad technical experience that can implement and deliver
You will be responsible for:
- Developing a strong understanding of customer use-cases and requirements
- Involved in the design-to-implementation of some of our solutions that address customer requirements
- Efficient and timely solution delivery through participating in regular sprint and alignment meetings, and through helping to identify and address any risks, technical gaps, scope creep, or performance-related issues that may impede commercial deployment of our systems.
- Responsible for collaborating and knowledge sharing with the wider Oxa team, developing a broad understanding of the various autonomy components and tools, and using this knowledge to deploy, debug and tune solutions in the field.
- Building, upgrading and maintaining maps for customer testing and deployments
- Involved in commissioning, calibrating, deploying and verifying compute, software, sensing and networking
- Developing the safety case (route analysis, risk assessments and operational procedures)
- Vehicle acceptance testing and shakedown
Requirements
What you need to succeed:
- Bachelor’s / MASc degree or equivalent experience in computer science, robotics, electrical or mechanical engineering
- 1-2 years demonstrated experience in development/delivery/deployment of robotics systems.
- Experience in fields related to autonomous vehicles, like robotics or automotive
- Strong problem solving skills and a data driven approach to troubleshooting
- Proven experience of debugging complex systems
- Demonstrated experience in HW/SW interfacing and integration
- Capable of working independently
- Knowledge of GitLab, CI and hardware in-the-loop testing for iteration on release cycles
Extra kudos if you have:
- Experience with C++/Python, Linux, shell scripting, networking, version control
- Experience with platform hardware and configuration, systems integration or POC prototyping
- The ability to translate customer concepts and requirements to a technical solution or service.
- Able to discuss a program equally well with the customer as with engineers
