For our locations in US e.g. Seattle (USA), Austin (USA)
Summary/Objective
Uhnder has developed the world’s first automotive digital Radar on Chip (RoC). Sensors based on Uhnder’s Digitally Coded Modulation (DCM) technology achieve new and unprecedented levels of performance for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving solutions. Founded in 2015, its main engineering operations center is in Austin, Texas, USA with design facilities in India and China.
As a Field Application Engineer, you will join a team of industry experts spanning mixed-signal, RF, digital, systems, and software experts to develop the next generation of electronics surrounding us and impacting us in our everyday lives.
Essential Functions
- Work with customers, field sales team, applications engineers, system engineers, design engineers and the product line manager to enable and technically support customer projects
