Frontend Software Engineer (App and Web)

Over the last few years, there has been a rush to develop technologies targeted at enabling autonomous vehicles, yet almost every company in the industry is still retrofitting legacy vehicle platforms and many are no closer to having a finished product.

At Faction, we’re on a mission to right-size transportation by making it autonomous and accessible to everyone so that it’s smart, simple, and fun.

TeleAssist™ is Faction’s driverless teleoperation system that allows for remote assistance of driverless vehicles. Unlike earlier generations of teleoperation systems, Faction’s approach is to have human operators and the autonomous systems work collaboratively.

We are looking for a Front End Software Engineer to develop a new front end experience for the remote operation of driverless vehicles as well as fleet management system web UI.

What You’ll Do:

• Use your past experience with 3D and VR rendering systems to present a new level of situational awareness to vehicle teleoperators
• Collaborate with the design team on both real-time and simulation environment experiences
• Collaborate with the design team and the software team to design and implement both native UIs and web based UIs

Minimum Qualifications:

• BS/MS in Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience
• 3+ years industry experience designing, writing, and maintaining production-level code
• Expertise in C++, C#, and Python in a production environment
• Expertise with common front end frameworks
• Unreal Engine development experience

What Makes You Stand Out:

• VR application development knowledge
• Experience in automotive or robotics
• Experience with peer-to-peer networking technologies (video, audio, data)
