Latitude AI (lat.ai) develops automated driving technologies, including L3, for Ford vehicles at scale. We’re driven by the opportunity to reimagine what it’s like to drive and make travel safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone.
When you join the Latitude team, you’ll work alongside leading experts across machine learning and robotics, cloud platforms, mapping, sensors and compute systems, test operations, systems and safety engineering – all dedicated to making a real, positive impact on the driving experience for millions of people.
As a Ford Motor Company subsidiary, we operate independently to develop automated driving technology at the speed of a technology startup. Latitude is headquartered in Pittsburgh with engineering centers in Dearborn, Mich., and Palo Alto, Calif.
Meet the team:
The RTOS team builds and maintains the real-time operating system foundation that every safety-critical software component on the vehicle's compute platform depends on. This includes the core build system, memory protection configuration, fault and crash handling, and the abstractions that let application teams write portable, safe embedded code. The team is also defining the next generation of runtime APIs and primitives that give application developers safe, predictable ways to manage memory and meet strict timing guarantees, without compromising the isolation that keeps one component's failure from affecting another. This role also has close visibility into hardware safety work, including hardware monitors, diagnostics, firewalls, power management, and thermal management for the compute platform, ensuring software and hardware safety strategies stay tightly aligned. This work sits at the intersection of systems programming, safety engineering, and platform architecture, and directly enables every other team building software that runs on the vehicle's compute hardware.
