Zendar is a Series B company with engineering offices in Berkeley, CA and Wangen, Germany. We develop advanced radars for automotive safety, autonomous tractors and delivery robots. Zendar’s technology allows autonomous systems to see their environment with 20X better resolution even in dusty, foggy, rainy and snowy conditions. Zendar has a diverse and dynamic team of electrical, mechanical, RF, algorithms and software engineers with deep background in sensing technology. Zendar is backed by Tier-1 VCs, has raised more than $25M in funding and has established strong partnerships with industry leaders.

Job Description:

This role owns our core platform software that is an OS layer designed for sensor fusion from many remote radar heads. The platform is unlike any traditional robotics operating system – each radar head sends several Gbps of data and we fuse many streams with a compute intensive signal processing and ML pipeline on an embedded GPU with tight real-time and latency requirements. In this role, you will be responsible for managing and growing the platform software team and for building the software components needed to deliver a high-quality radar imagery system.

Required Qualifications:

• Proficiency with modern C++ (we use C++ 14)
• Experience developing for embedded Linux or POSIX systems
• At least 7 years of professional software engineering experience
• Experience developing software that runs on an RTOS
• Familiarity with professional software development tools, such as source control (git), unit testing, and profiling
• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
• Experience managing and mentoring a software team

Desired Qualifications:

• Experience with developing mission critical software (e.g. aviation or autonomous vehicles)
• Experience with CUDA
• Experience with radar, lidar, cameras, GPS/IMU, or other automotive sensors
• Experience mentoring team members on software development and best practices

Working at Zendar Includes:

• Opportunity to make an impact at a young, venture-backed company in an emerging market
• Competitive salary. Range for this position, depending on experience, is $160-250k annually.
• Benefits including health, vision, dental, and equity.
• Daily catered lunch and a stocked fridge (when working out of the Berkeley, CA office)
