<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong data-stringify-type="bold">Join us as a <span id="miro-copy-source--doc"></span>(Senior) Backend Engineer (all genders) in our Vehicle Mission team on a shared journey that matters!&nbsp;</strong></h3>

<p><span id="miro-copy-source--doc"></span></p>

<p>To make the vision of an autonomously driving mobility service a reality, the teams in our Vehicle Integration domain develop the applications and tools needed to enable autonomous passenger management within our MOIA vehicles in a world without a driver: How do passengers authenticate themselves in an autonomous vehicle? How do we ensure a safe cabin during boarding and the ride? Which content should be displayed on the vehicle screens to provide a safe and informative user experience for the passenger?&nbsp; &nbsp;</p>

<p>The <strong>Vehicle Mission </strong>team addresses these challenges by building the mission control backend that orchestrates autonomous vehicle operations. The team develops the orchestration of driving tasks to autonomous vehicles, coordinates passenger boarding workflows, and ensures reliable communication between backend systems and on-vehicle components. This includes integrating with external self-driving system providers and providing test infrastructure and tools for autonomous vehicle development.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The team has the necessary roles to take full responsibility for the given value streams: from backend and embedded developers to quality specialists, cyber security experts and product owners. Join the team if you want to solve these challenges in an agile and customer-driven environment. &nbsp;</p>

<li>Integrate AI coding assistants in the development process&nbsp;</li>

<li>Interface with VW Group, vendors, and other partners to align software interfaces, tooling, and hardware</li>

</ul>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What will help you to fulfill your role&nbsp;</strong></h3>

<p><span id="miro-copy-source--doc"></span></p>

<ul>

<li>Experience with <strong>AWS IoT and Serverless technologies</strong>, ideally such as Lambda, DynamoDB, and SQS</li>

<li>Familiarity with communication protocols used to connect edge devices, such as <strong>MQTT</strong></li>

<li>Experience with CICD tools such as Github Actions or AWS CodeBuild</li>

<li>General interest in embedded development</li>
