Summary Generated by Built In

We believe that the future of transportation is automated. Automated travel will be safer, more comfortable, more efficient and a powerful economic enabler for our communities. However, automating driving is a massively complex engineering challenge, requiring vehicles to navigate social norms, regional traffic patterns, unpredictable weather incidents, and a host of anomalous events. While billions of dollars have already been spent trying to solve this problem, a comprehensive answer remains frustratingly elusive. We believe that the final answer lies with roadway infrastructure.

Join us in building the roads of the future. Cavnue, which in April 2022 announced the closing of its Series A at $130M, is bridging technology and road infrastructure to realize a safer, more efficient, and more accessible future for automated transportation. Cavnue’s experienced team sits at the intersection of technology, infrastructure, and government—working together to develop and deploy the world’s most advanced roads. We are incorporating physical and digital infrastructure that unlock the full spectrum of capabilities of current and future automated vehicle technologies. We believe in a world in which road infrastructure shares in the complexity of autonomy and, instead of being another problem to solve for, becomes a core part of the solution.

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Network Engineer to support the network buildout and operations on upcoming Cavnue ITS (intelligent transportation system) projects. On a fully deployed network, the role will also support continued network operations, resolve outages, performance issues, and perform needed upgrades and repairs.

We are looking for an individual that is passionate about the future of roads, who is willing to think creatively, and is ready to roll up their sleeves and do the work necessary to help build and deploy Cavnue’s next set of projects. 

Roles Responsibilities:  

  • Standup Cavnue’s network at new roadside deployments
  • Support Civil Engineering team in documentation and planning for network related items
  • Execute network device upgrades and replacement including coordinating outages with software and program teams
  • Maintain network documentation at Cavnue deployments
  • Procure network hardware to support deployment upgrades and new constructions
  • Perform network monitoring and troubleshooting on operating deployments and root cause network failures
  • Author scripts to automate network device maintenance and configuration.
  • Track and manage network device license and subscriptions
  • Manage circuits and accounts with ISPs
  • Deployment of remote access A&A that meets security & audit requirements

Requirements:

  • Troubleshooting OSI layers 1-4
  • Command line configuration of switches, routers, and firewalls
  • Firewall rule configuration and log monitoring
  • NAT configuration and troubleshooting
  • Linux network configuration
  • Routing: Static, BGP, OSPF, routing weights and paths
  • VLAN design and configuration
  • Experience with network automation scripting in Python, Bash, or similar.
  • Documentation tools: Lucid, Visio, Excel, or similar
  • Implementation of RADIUS and TACACS
  • Configuration of IPsec VPNs

Nice to have:

  • Experience with GCP and VPC and related networking
  • Ansible or Terraform
  • Web development skills
  • Experience working with State and Federal transportation agencies on ITS focused projects

What We Do

Cavnue is building smart roads for smart vehicles, and future-proofing the nation’s roadways.

The interstate highway system defined mobility in the second half of the 20th century. Now, transportation is changing again. Mobility in the 21st century will be defined by intelligent, connected, and autonomous vehicles and while billions have been invested into developing in-vehicle technologies, only a small fraction has been spent on developing infrastructure to support and enhance advanced roads.

We are the first company of its kind focused on designing dedicated roadways for CAVs, combining technology and road infrastructure to unlock the full potential of these vehicles. Ultimately, it is our company’s vision that drives our work: to build supportive infrastructure that will ensure safer roads, fewer casualties, reduced traffic congestion, and increased traffic efficiency.

We are building the future of roads through innovation and collaboration with major vehicle manufacturers, road operators, and government. We believe collaboration on smart roadways and connected infrastructure is crucial to the success of a vehicle manufacturer-neutral technology platform that helps scale vehicle autonomy at all levels on public roads safely.

In August 2020, we were selected by the State of Michigan to serve as the Master Developer for the nation’s first CAV Corridor. The initial deployment, which spans over 25 miles, will connect two major metros in Southeast Michigan and will eventually lead to a state-wide network. Since then, we have signed multiple letters of intent with leading road operators to pursue enabling infrastructure for passenger and freight CAVs.

In April 2022, we closed our Series A capital investment round at $130 million to continue scaling the nation's first network of CAV corridors. Lead investors in the round were Ford Motor Company and Sidewalk Infrastructure Partners with additional investment from Openvia and Landstar—bringing together a leading global automaker, road operator, and freight logistics provider to invest in the future of roadways.

Why Work With Us

We are a team-first culture that ensures every employee has the opportunity to have a meaningful impact on the future of the roads. Join our world-class team, including veterans from some of the biggest names in the industry – like Apple, Waymo, Lyft, Aurora, GM, and Ford – as well as government agencies such as the FHWA and the USDOT.
