About Lucid
At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.
We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.
Your Role:
- Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks and tooling to orchestrate ADAS/AD SIL (Software-in-Loop) and HIL (Hardware-in-Loop) simulations, including test execution, result collection, and reporting.
- Design and maintain tooling for large-scale regression execution, including scheduling, failure triage, log management, and metrics extraction.
- Support scenario-based validation by enabling tooling for scenario configuration, parameterization, execution, and result evaluation.
- Be responsible for creating tools for creating data visualizations either from scratch or leveraging open-source solutions such as Foxglove
- Update and maintain the automation tools based on feedback from users of the HIL and SIL system
- Develop an understanding of HIL and SIL simulation setup for L2++ and L3 ADAS/AD driving, safety, and parking functions
- Develop, maintain, and scale CI/CD pipelines for ADAS simulation workflows (e.g., per-commit smoke tests, nightly regressions), including integration with version control, build systems, and simulation farms.
- Monitor pipeline health, reduce execution time, and improve overall simulation reliability and debuggability.
- Support HIL and SIL development as necessary
- Work with suppliers as necessary and represent Lucid ADAS systems validation team.
Expectations:
- Very good understanding of software development for automation tools, post-processing and application development
- Highly proficient in Python; working knowledge of MATLAB for analysis, modeling, and automation
- Working experience with object-oriented software design and API development
