What project we have for you

This project is enhancing its Data Aggregation Service as part of a new delivery pipeline that extends the existing UniMap (UnIM) work. The service aggregates Vehicle Probe Data (VPD) — raw sensor data collected from vehicles (not imagery) — and extracts features from it to support map alignment (VPD2 Map Alignment).

The service is polyglot: most components are JVM-based (Java, Scala, Python), but a meaningful part of the aggregation algorithms exist in C++ and C#. These algorithms are containerized (Docker) and plugged into the service so the pipeline can invoke them to process incoming vehicle sensor data. This role will focus on productionizing, maintaining, and enhancing that C++/C# algorithm layer.

This is an extension to an existing, distributed team with members based in India, the US, and Europe. The India-based hires will report to the India engineering manager and work closely with global team members across time zones — not in isolation

What you will do

  • Own end-to-end delivery of the C++/C# algorithm components used for VPD (vehicle sensor data) aggregation, with full individual accountability for the workstream.
  • Understand and take over existing C++ and C# codebases; productionize and containerize (Docker) these algorithms for integration into the aggregation service.
  • Evaluate and, where needed, swap out third-party libraries that are not Docker-compatible, ensuring smooth containerized deployment.
  • Partner with data scientists to understand the algorithmic/data-science logic implemented in C++/C# and translate it into robust, production-grade code.
  • Design and build test/validation suites for the algorithms to ensure correctness and stability.
  • Contribute across the broader polyglot service stack (Java/Scala/Python) where useful, beyond the core C++/C# scope.
  • Collaborate daily with distributed team members across India, US, and Europe time zones.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to senior engineers working on the same workstream.

What you need for this

Lead Software Engineer position for the VPD2 Map Alignment workstream. The lead will operate with full ownership and individual accountability for the C++/C# algorithm layer of the Data Aggregation Service — from understanding existing algorithm code through to productionizing, testing, and integrating it into the live service.

Required Skills & Experience

  • Strong hands-on experience in C++ and C# (must-have for this role).
  • Proven experience taking ownership of a workstream end-to-end with minimal supervision.
  • Experience containerizing applications/algorithms with Docker and integrating them into larger services.
  • Comfortable working with and modernizing existing/legacy codebases.
  • Experience building automated test and validation frameworks.
  • Strong communication skills; ability to work with globally distributed teams.

Good to Have

  • Working knowledge of Java, Scala, and/or Python (the broader service is JVM-based).
  • Prior exposure to geospatial, mapping, or automotive sensor-data domains.
