Applied Intuition is a leading vehicle software supplier revolutionizing how autonomous vehicles (AV) and advanced driver‑assistance systems (ADAS) are developed, tested, and deployed. By leveraging cutting‑edge AI‑powered simulation and validation platforms, Applied Intuition helps automotive, trucking, construction, and defense companies accelerate the adoption of safe and intelligent machines.
Since its founding in 2017, the company has secured $901M in funding, grown to 750+ employees, and built a reputation as the go‑to partner for top automakers, robotics firms, and defense organizations. Their state‑of‑the‑art simulation tools allow engineers to rigorously test complex driving scenarios, ensuring high‑quality, software‑defined vehicle systems make it to market faster and safer.
With a fast‑paced, high‑impact culture, Applied Intuition is a place for top‑tier engineers to tackle some of the most exciting challenges in autonomy, AI, and vehicle intelligence, making the next generation of transportation safer, smarter, and more scalable.
Requirements Roles and Responsibilities: Applied Intuition is hiring Software Engineers across multiple specializations, including Frontend, Backend, Full Stack, and Infrastructure/Cloud Engineering. Engineers will:
Seniority & Experience
5+ years of experience in software engineering, building and shipping complex software.
Startup experience (Seed – Series B) preferred; founder or founding engineer experience is a plus.
Strong CS fundamentals with a degree from a top‑tier university.
Technical Skills by Specialization Frontend Engineers
Experience with GraphQL, WebGL, or real‑time rendering frameworks is a plus.
Strong understanding of frontend performance optimization and resilient architectures.
Experience with high‑performance APIs, distributed systems, and data pipelines.
Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern infrastructure tooling.
Strong knowledge of frontend (React, TypeScript) and backend (Node.js, Python, or Golang) technologies.
Ability to design and optimize end‑to‑end systems, from UI to data storage.
Familiarity with GraphQL, Kubernetes, and containerization is a plus.
Experience with containerization and orchestration tools like Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, or Pulumi.
Deep understanding of cloud‑native architectures, distributed computing, and CI/CD pipelines.
Background in high-performance computing or simulation is a bonus.
Self‑starter with strong adaptability to new tools and technologies.
Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, high‑impact environment with minimal guidance.
Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work collaboratively.
Evidence of exceptional trajectory (e.g., former founder, KP Fellow, outstanding technical achievements).
Must be able to work onsite in Mountain View, CA, five days per week.
Job Requirements The role is an evergreen software engineer position at Applied Intuition, aimed at bright engineers interested in designing elegant solutions to complex problems in the autonomy space. Applied Intuition is hiring for Frontend, Backend, Full‑stack, and Infrastructure/Cloud Engineers.
Here is a general breakdown of what the team is looking for:
Seniority
5+ years of experience shipping complex software
Startup experience (seed – Series B), founder or founding engineer experience a big plus
Designed efficient and effective solutions to a wide range of engineering challenges
Education
CS degree from top university
Hard skills (open to frontend, backend, fullstack, infra/cloud)
Working knowledge of frontend, API layer, containerization, or cluster orchestration frameworks (such as React, GraphQL, Docker, or Kubernetes)
Experience working with simulation tools, modeling physical problems, or using robotics middlewares (such as ROS)
Demonstrated ability to be a self‑starter and can quickly become comfortable with new technical tools
Proven ability to take initiative in a fast‑paced environment
Evidence of something exceptional (former founder, KP fellows, history of trajectory, etc.)
Able to work in‑person in Mountain View 5 days/week
