Job Description

Want to be part of transforming road freight – for good? Einride is showing the world a new way to move, based on the latest digital, electric and autonomous technologies. Through freight capacity as a service, we enable businesses around the world to accelerate towards their sustainability goals.

Founded in 2016, Einride became the first company in the world to deploy a cab-less autonomous electric vehicle on a public road (Sweden, 2019). In 2022, we were the first to successfully operate such a vehicle on a US public road. Today our award-winning technology has been launched across 8 countries (and counting). Our clients are some of the world’s biggest shippers, including Fortune 500 companies. We are also operating Sweden’s largest truck dedicated public charging network and counting.

Your mission when joining as a Principal System Owner at Einride will be to define the processing platform and performance envelope; so Autonomous Driving software runs predictably and reliably in all conditions.

You will own:

• Compute architecture: Design the computer systems for different vehicles.
• Performance sizing: Figure out how much computer power, memory, and storage is needed.
• Input/output mapping: Plan how sensors connect to the computer system and ensure data flows correctly.
• Processing-time expectations: Define how fast things need to happen from sensor to software.
• Power, thermal, and EMC: Set limits and design for cooling, power, and reliable hardware in various environments.
• Bring-up and fault injection: Lead initial setup, test for problems, and work with vendors to fix issues.
• Vendor engagement: Manage relationships with computer part suppliers.
• Partner with the Sensors & Network System Owners: Balance coverage, bandwidth, timing, and compute headroom.

We expect you to have:

• 10+ years designing or deploying compute platforms for autonomy/robotics/ADAS - including embedded and edge compute.
• Strong grasp of data rates, input/output planning, memory/storage sizing, and practical thermal design.
• Ability to write clear requirements and work tightly with Autonomous Driving software teams on performance assumptions.

Nice to have:

• Experience with safety monitors/watchdogs, containerization on embedded systems, and over-the-air update constraints.

Beyond the technical, we value:

• A naturally curious, humble, and creative mindset.
• Good communication and collaborative team-working skills
• The ability to thrive and contribute in a fast-paced, collaborative environment

This is a full-time position based in Gothenburg or Stockholm. You will be part of a truly diverse, high performing team with a common passion for sustainability and making things happen in an innovative way. We recommend that you submit your application as soon as possible since selection and interviews are held continually.

At Einride, we are innovators, building solutions the world has never seen before – but urgently needs. That’s why we take action, and it’s why we are always eager to be challenged. We know that our best innovations come from having a diverse mix of people, including those of different experiences, career paths, and walks of life. By coming together and sharing our perspectives openly – by disagreeing, discussing, and committing – we deliver greater impact.
