SOME IT WORKS. SOME CHANGES WHAT'S POSSIBLE.

SHARE YOUR PASSION.

More than 90% of automotive innovations are based on electronics and software. That's why creative freedom and lateral thinking are so important in the pursuit of truly novel solutions. That’s why our experts will treat you as part of the team from day one, encourage you to bring your own ideas to the table – and give you the opportunity to really show what you can do. 

 

Our team at the BMW Group enables AI-powered automation for autonomous driving validation by building robust frameworks. Here, you will help turn research ideas into stable, operational systems and support the advancement of innovative driving simulation solutions.

 

What awaits you?

  • You will support our highly cooperative team to foster a positive and collaborative atmosphere.
  • Furthermore, you help to design and implement framework components such as APIs, pipelines, and service interfaces for end-to-end system operation.
  • In addition, you contribute to integrating and operating Open WebUI as a core interface layer and ensure smooth connectivity to external LLM providers.
