DynamoDB jobs

Join us as a (Senior) Backend Engineer (m/f/d) in our Vehicle Foundation team on a shared journey that matters!

To make the vision of an autonomously driving mobility service a reality the teams in our Vehicle Integration domain develop the applications and tools needed to enable autonomous passenger management within our MOIA ridepooling vehicles in a world without a driver: How do passengers authenticate themselves in an autonomous vehicle? How do we ensure a safe cabin during boarding and the ride? Which content should be displayed on the vehicle screens to provide the passenger with a safe and informative user experience?   

The Vehicle Foundation team supports & boosts the vehicle feature development process for the feature teams working in our domain by providing platform functionality. We develop modern automated solutions for hardware and software platforms by covering tooling, observability, security, and provisioning. Additionally, we keep and maintain stable in-vehicle features and connectivity suited to the ridepooling experience for passengers and the fleet of the existing MOIA system.  

The team has the necessary roles to take full responsibility for the given value streams: from backend and embedded developers to quality specialists, cyber security experts and product managers. Join our team to solve these challenges in an agile and customer-driven environment.  

What you will do

• Research and develop passenger management systems for an autonomous mobility service.
• Bridge the data flow of the AWS-based backend infrastructure and the in-vehicle components using AWS IoT services (e.g., telemetry data, camera stream, metrics, authentication, logs).
• Develop and improve the backend services used to manage in-vehicle components.
• Improve the CICD infrastructure responsible for building and distributing our embedded software releases.
• Work in a bottom-up managed, autonomous, cross-functional team together with other talented engineers.  
• Participate in the full development life cycle, from design to implementation, quality assurance and maintenance.  
• Interface with VW Group, vendors, and other partners to align on software interfaces, tooling, and hardware. 

What will help you to fulfill your role 

• Proficiency in Golang, and an interest in touching other languages such as Typescript, Python, Kotlin.
• Experience with AWS IoT and serverless technologies such as Lambda, DynamoDB, and SQS.
• Experience with/interest in DevOps tools such as Ansible and Kubernetes.
• Ability to switch contexts frequently to unblock other teams and to autonomously prioritize your own tasks without needing direction.
• Knowledge of current trends in software design, event-driven architecture, DevOps, and a strong interest in further development.
• Interest in applying agile development practices and a proactive, flexible, and hands-on mindset.
• Strong collaboration skills throughout code reviews, pair programming, providing constructive feedback, and team communication. 

Additionally, a nice-to-have would be:

• Familiarity with communication protocols used to connect edge devices, such as MQTT.
• Experience with CICD tools such as Github Actions, AWS CodeBuild, or Jenkins.
• Familiarity with container solutions such as Docker.
• General understanding of the Linux platform and interest in embedded development (in C++). 

We encourage you to apply even if your profile does not meet all the requirements for the role since we are looking for a diverse range of experiences, skills, and interests. We are certain that there will be something for everyone because we are working on such a variety of tasks and embrace individual growth at MOIA.
