Software Engineer

Who we are:

Glydways is reimagining what public transit can be. We believe that mobility is the gateway to opportunity—connecting people to housing, education, employment, commerce, and care. By making transportation more accessible, affordable, and sustainable, we empower communities to thrive and unlock economic and social prosperity.

Our mission is to revolutionize transit with a solution that delivers high capacity, exceptional user experiences, unmatched affordability, and minimal environmental impact.

The Glydways system is a groundbreaking network of carbon-neutral, interconnected transit pathways powered by standardized autonomous vehicles on dedicated roadways. Operating 24/7 with on-demand access, it offers personalized and efficient mobility—without the burden of heavy upfront infrastructure costs or ongoing taxpayer subsidies.

With Glydways, we’re building more than a transportation system; we’re creating a future where everyone, everywhere, has the freedom to move.

Meet the team:

The Onboard Integration team builds the software foundation that runs on every Glydways vehicle. Part of the Embedded Platform & Integration group, we partner daily with Vehicle Hardware, Autonomy, Safety, and Track Operations to turn a collection of components into a cohesive system on the road. Our work spans streaming data from new sensors, controlling vehicle actuators, building our custom embedded Linux OS, integrating ML runtimes, and writing the tools that keep live track operations moving -we own the glue that makes an autonomous vehicle actually drive.

This is software that moves real vehicles carrying real passengers, so reliability isn't a nice-to-have - it's the job. As a Software Engineer on Onboard Integration, you won't be handed narrowly scoped tickets. You'll take a problem from the whiteboard to code running on a vehicle at our test track, get hands-on with the newest hardware in the building, and debug across the software, firmware, and electrical boundaries where the hard problems live. We're looking for engineers who are genuinely excited about autonomous vehicles and PRT, who take initiative in ambiguity, find signals in noisy systems, and own their work end-to-end.

**What You'll Do:
**

• Design, build, and test mission-critical onboard software that runs on every Glydways vehicle, from prototype to deployment on track.
• Own high-performance interfaces to onboard devices—from cameras, radar, LiDAR, and IMUs to drive-by-wire, controls, and other vehicle systems.
• Develop and integrate runtimes and middleware so autonomy and ML workloads can execute and communicate reliably onboard.
