Job description

Job Summary:

Are you an early-career embedded software engineer who knows how to work smart - including with AI? At Vontas, you'll design and build the software that keeps millions of transit passengers moving every day. This is a hands-on role where your code ships to real hardware across North American transit systems. You'll own features from design through delivery, and you'll have access to AI tools that handle the repetitive heavy lifting - so you can focus on the engineering problems that actually require your expertise.
We estimate roughly 30% of deliverables in this role leverage AI assistance - things like boilerplate generation, test scaffolding, documentation drafts, and protocol research. Your job is to direct that output, validate it against real-world hardware constraints, and ship code that works.
We actively encourage engineers to use AI tools to move faster and reduce toil. You won't be judged for using AI - you'll be expected to use it well.
This role reports to the Senior Manager, Hardware and Platform.

Job Description:

  • Use AI tools to research and summarize protocol options and vendor documentation during design phases

  • Participate in hardware and software design reviews and support product testing and validation

  • Collaborate with suppliers and customers to troubleshoot and resolvecomponentand system issues

  • Other duties as assigned.

Required Skills/Abilities:

  • Comfort using AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, or similar) in a professional or personal project context

  • Ability to critically review AI-generated code - you catch hallucinations, hardware mismatches, and unsafe assumptions
