Sr. Android Developer, Infotainment

The Infotainment team is chartered to develop in-vehicle infotainment applications and user experiences for our products and composed of developers of all backgrounds with experience in Android, SDKs, IoT, Bluetooth, and Security... and we are growing!

Outside of work our team is chock full of adventure seekers in all senses of the phrase. We have lived and travelled around the world, we ski and snowboard, we camp and hike, we take up adventurous hobbies like bagpipe playing, we live in adventurous places like floathouses, some of us have joined the adventure of raising kids - and some of us have joined the equally adventurous world of raising pets...

But the most adventurous thing we have all done recently is jump ship from the safety of corporate jobs to come together and become Rivian and Volkswagen Group Technologies!
