Develop and calibrate vehicle dynamics control software including steering, stability, and traction control algorithms for electric vehicles.
О компании
- We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian. We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new (not to mention, innovative and delightful) vertically integrated, small EVs designed to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.
- ALSO is looking for a Vehicle Dynamics Controls Engineer to develop and calibrate world-class stability and traction control software, helping shape the next generation of vehicle dynamics. This role will work closely with cross-functional partners across controls, embedded software, and test and validation teams, taking features through the full software development life cycle from concept and modeling through calibration, validation, and release.
