As vehicles become supercomputers on wheels, our challenge is to build the software foundation that makes advanced driver assistance and safety features truly intelligent.\nWe are seeking a Senior Software Engineer based in Stuttgart, Germany, to work directly with automotive customers on the integration and productionization of parking software for the NVIDIA DRIVE platform. Your primary focus will be adapting NVIDIA software to vehicle platforms, diagnosing system-level issues and validating parking behavior in development and production vehicles. You will work across perception, fusion, environment modeling, and vehicle integration to trace problems through the full parking chain, identify root causes, implement or coordinate appropriate solutions, and turn findings into actionable input for NVIDIA engineering teams.\nWhat you'll be doing:\nIntegrate and adapt NVIDIA DRIVE parking software on customer development and production vehicles.\nWork on vehicle bring-up, software flashing, data logging, testing and functional validation.\nTriage and analyze issues across the parking chain, from sensor input through perception and fusion to maneuver behavior.\nCollaborate with customer teams and NVIDIA engineering teams across Europe, the US, APAC, and India to identify root causes, deliver program-level solutions, and drive longer-term product corrections.\nConfigure and tune parking software for different vehicle platforms, sensor configurations, vehicle geometries, and low-speed maneuvering requirements.\nDebug fusion and environment-modeling behavior that combines sensor and neural-network outputs into a consistent and temporally stable representation of the vehicle surroundings.\nImplement targeted C++ or Python adaptations, debugging tools, and analysis workflows where needed to resolve customer integration and functional issues.\nMeasure functional performance through recorded-data replay and in-vehicle testing, and communicate findings clearly to customers and NVIDIA engineering teams.\nWhat we need to see:\nStrong background in ADAS software development and triage, with at least 8+ years of experience including in-vehicle activities. \nStrong programming skills in modern C++ and Python.\nProficiency in Linux or QNX-based embedded environments.\nDemonstrated ability to systematically isolate system-level issues through log analysis, recorded-data replay and in-vehicle testing, and drive them to resolution across multiple engineering teams.\nClear technical communication with customers and distributed engineering teams, including the ability to explain findings, tradeoffs and next steps.\nBS/MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or Automotive Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.\nComfort working in a customer-facing field environment where priorities may be driven by vehicle availability, integration milestones and production-program needs.\nValid driver's license and readiness for vehicle testing and international travel.\nWays to stand out from the crowd:\nExperience with parking or low-speed maneuvering software, or closely related perception, fusion or environment modeling work.\nProduction experience with camera- and ultrasonic-based parking or low-speed assistance systems.\nExperience integrating ADAS software into customer vehicle platforms and supporting automotive series programs. Practical experience turning sensor and perception outputs into usable results through fusion, tracking, filtering or temporal association.\nExperience with data-driven development loops, including fleet-data triage, corner-case analysis and feedback to model-training teams.\nHands-on experience with AI/ML workflows and deep neural network development or integration - e.g., in perception tasks such as object detection, segmentation, or depth estimation\nNVIDIA offers competitive compensation and benefits. If you want to apply deep parking and perception expertise directly to customer vehicles and help production programs reach reliable real-world performance, we'd like to meet you.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4183,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Germany","iso":"DE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Smart Mobility","Servers & Data Center Hardware","Computer Components","AI Chips & Accelerators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-29T15:44:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.632,"p_room":1,"age_days":7,"expected_fill_days":40,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T04:22:42Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":6796,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-software-engineer-parking-for-autonomous-vehicles"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3467622}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"nvidia.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3467622},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
