About Torc
Torc has been a leader in autonomous vehicle technology since 2007. Now part of the Daimler family,we’refocused on building the software that will bring autonomous trucks to market.
The Team
The Device Drivers team builds andmaintainsthe software that configures and interfaces with our sensors, moving data from sensors to the systems that consume itprimarily using C++.
WhatYou’llDo
- Design and implement software integrating external sensors (PCIe, DMA, Ethernet, CAN) into the systemusing C++, including debugging and performance tuning at the system level.
- Maintain software releases and testing artifacts.
- Optimizereal-time behavior, memory usage, and performance ofreal-timeapplications running in multi-threaded, multi-core environments.
- Maintain automated build pipelines, test environments, and test toolingusing C++/Python/Bash.Partner with DevOps, QA, Hardware, and Networking teams to troubleshoot issues and ensure system security, stability, and scalability.
- Integrate andmaintainthird-party and open-source software.
- Contribute to technical design discussions and documentation.
- Provide technical guidance to junior engineers on driver design and debugging approaches.
WhatYou’llNeed
- Bachelor’s in Computer Science, or a related field, with 4+ years of experience or a Master’swith 0-3+ years of relevant experience.
- Strong C/C++proficiencyand hands-on experience with device drivers/user-space drivers, Linux embedded development,systemdservice management, general Linux system administration,and real-time systems (latency analysis viaCyclicTest,ftrace).
- Working knowledge of build systems (Make,CMake,Yocto,Buildstream, or Bazel), containers/namespace isolation, and hardware interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART, Automotive Ethernet, CAN, GPIO).
- Comfort with OS fundamentals (system calls, memory/process management, semaphores, mutexes, message queues, shared memory), networking protocols (TCP/IP, SSH, HTTP), and debugging tools (GDB,strace,Valgrind).
- Git-based version control, CI/CD practices, and Agile/Scrum team experience.
- Nice to have: NvidiaDriveOSexposure, ISO 26262/61508 familiarity, and Automotive ASPICE (V-Cycle) knowledge.
