Cloud Performance Engineer

• Develop cloud-based third-party integrations and leverage our applets framework to represent third-party functionalities in the vehicle.
• Integrate external cloud APIs (Spotify, weather, navigation, payment services, etc.)
• Bridge cloud backends and in-vehicle applets (the same framework from the previous role).
• Possibly handle data synchronization, authentication, and OTA updates.
• Android context: - Building Android services, apps, or applets that integrate cloud APIs (music, weather, payments, voice assistants, etc.).

• Implementing data flow between cloud services and Android Automotive components (CarService, HMI, Vehicle HAL).

• Possibly contributing to an in-vehicle framework or SDK that allows other teams to integrate new cloud-based features safely.

• Python, Go, or Node.js for cloud services or integration scripts
• Java/Kotlin if Android Automotive is part of the stack
• Cloud Platforms Familiarity with at least one major platform: AWS (IoT Core, Lambda, API Gateway) Azure IoT Hub Google Cloud IoT / Firebase
• Understanding of vehicle-cloud security, certificates, and OTA mechanisms.
• Android context: - Kotlin and Java main languages for Android development.

• C++ (JNI) for low-level integrations or performance-critical components.

• Python/Node.js/Go optional, for backend or integration tools.

• Integrating with third-party cloud services (Spotify, Alexa, Google APIs, weather, etc.).

• Familiarity with API design and OpenAPI/Swagger specs.
