Luxoft is a global software services company delivering professional solutions across sectors such as Finance, Automotive, and Digital Transformation.

We are establishing a new team focused on developing and enhancing Android Framework components, specifically SystemUI and Homescreen, for our client's In-Vehicle Android Infotainment (IVI) systems. The team aims to understand user interactions with information and vehicle infrastructure to shape the future IVI experience for 2026 and beyond.

Recognizing software as a key driver of innovation and differentiation in automotive environments, we build a software foundation that leverages open-source technologies in alignment with their communities. Our approach incorporates modern continuous integration and continuous delivery practices, extending deployment directly into the vehicle. The project follows agile principles and is scaled across a large, multi-hundred-person team.

Through combining advanced technologies, agile methodologies, and a commitment to optimal solutions, we collaborate with our OEM partner to define the future of IVI systems.

Responsibilities

Collaborate within an end-to-end (E2E) team alongside system engineers, product owners, designers, backend teams, and QA.

Implement, test, and refine new features for the existing Android Automotive application stack.

Work with Product Managers and UI/UX designers to translate requirements into technical solutions that integrate with the current architecture.

Diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve software defects, bugs, and performance issues promptly.

Maintain and enhance codebase health through regular refactoring and optimization.
