To enable this, we built SceneXtract a tool that allows simulation engineers to find specific road scenarios using natural language. We are looking for a versatile, "best tool for the job" engineer. We don't need a specialist in one specific protocol; we need someone who can dive into a massive data lake and build the high-performance bridges required to make that data move. Currently, our challenge is building a sophisticated conversion engine to translate complex internal data structures into external formats. This involves deep JVM (Java/Kotlin) work for performance-critical logic, while simultaneously utilizing Python to integrate AI Agents and LLMs that make the data searchable. Key Responsibilities: Build the "Bridge": Take ownership of designing and implementing high-performance libraries that transform complex data at scale Be a Technical Driver: Beyond just writing code, you will help shape the architecture and ensure the systems we build are clean, testable, and scalable Work Across Ecosystems: You’ll spend your morning in the JVM building a high-performance engine and your afternoon in Python working with AI agents or cloud-native services Champion Quality: Set the bar for engineering excellence. This means mentoring peers through code reviews and ensuring "done" includes robust performance and unit testing Solve Ambiguous Problems: Translate high-level goals into technical reality. You’ll have the autonomy to decide how to bridge the gap between our data and the end-user's needs Who are you? Core Engineering Strength: You have a deep command of Java or Kotlin and understand how to build performant, reusable libraries Versatile Mindset: You are language-agnostic. You see Python or Shell scripting as essential tools to solve problems, especially in the realm of AI and Cloud logic Systems Thinker: You care about the "big picture." You look at how data flows through a system and how to make that flow as efficient as possible Pragmatic & Adaptable: You are comfortable jumping into a new domain, learning the necessary standards (whatever they may be), and applying solid engineering principles to them Cloud Literate: You’re comfortable navigating AWS environments and understand the basics of containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) What We Offer: The opportunity to tackle meaningful and challenging problems A chance to continuously learn and stay on top of the latest technology trends Work that has real-world impact, shaping the future of mobility and technology Regular feedback to help you grow and succeed in your role A collaborative and supportive team environment where your contributions are valued Competitive salary plus bonus Flexible working hours and a hybrid working environment Medical coverage for you and your family This role is eligible for Creative Tax Incentive scheme in Poland” or KUP (Autorskie Koszty Uzyskania Przychodu) Option to work on a B2B contract (please note: benefits, bonus and KUP do not apply in this case) Change is HERE.
