What you will work on
You will work on Fernride’s teleoperation software stack, building the systems that allow human operators to safely, intuitively, and reliably control vehicles remotely. This includes high-performance HMIs, low-latency video pipelines, and robust connectivity between teleoperation stations and vehicles.
The team operates at the intersection of real-time systems, networking, graphics, and vehicle integration. The focus is on performance, determinism, and reliability across a wide range of hardware—from tablets and mobile controllers to full teleoperation stations.
How you will leave your footprint
Build and evolve teleoperation HMIs using modern GUI frameworks (e.g. ImGui, Web) across multiple hardware form factors
Design and implement low-latency, high-throughput video pipelines with dynamic multi-stream management and precise time synchronization
Optimize glass-to-glass latency using GPU-accelerated video encoding/decoding and careful end-to-end tuning
Develop robust connectivity layers between teleoperator stations and vehicles, including V2V communication where required
Adapt teleoperation software to diverse hardware platforms, ensuring consistent performance, usability, and reliability
What you will bring to the team
Required skills
Strong C++ skills with experience in performance-critical and real-time systems
Hands-on experience with networking concepts and low-latency data transport
Experience building graphical user interfaces or visualization systems in C++
Solid understanding of Linux systems, threading, timing, and synchronization
A quality-driven mindset with a strong sense of ownership for safety-relevant software
Preferred skills
Experience with video encoding/decoding pipelines, GPU acceleration, or multimedia frameworks
Familiarity with SD-WAN, adaptive streaming, or real-time media transport
Background in robotics, autonomous vehicles, or other safety-critical domains

Who we are
At FERNRIDE, we believe in a future where robotics unlocks human potential to create a better world. Yet today, humans still perform repetitive, risky tasks to keep our world running. These jobs, essential yet unattractive, should be performed by robots, which still fall short. We are on a mission to change that and transform critical industries through human-centric automation.
FERNRIDE delivers a comprehensive ground autonomy platform to offer scalable automation solutions across industries. They span from container terminals and yard operations via defence logistics to open-road trucking. By combining AI-powered autonomy with human oversight and modular, vehicle-agnostic hardware, we enable businesses and defence organizations to harness the full potential of automation, driving efficiency and safety.
FERNRIDE was founded in 2019 following 10 years of research at the Technical University of Munich and currently has 50 employees. We are setting the standard for autonomous logistics and advancing Europe’s technological sovereignty by delivering the first-ever fully certified autonomous trucking system in Europe in 2025.
