Identify and access vehicle data through interfaces such as OBDII, proprietary connectors, inductive sensors, and direct vehicle loom access
Capture and log raw vehicle data in a structured and contextualised format enabling analysis and simulation
Decode and map signals to derive meaningful parameters such as speed, battery state, torque, and fault codes
Document integrations for usage by Field Installation Engineers and customer self-installers

Automation and Tooling:

Optimise integration processes through automation and enhanced tooling
Own and continually improve vehicle data simulator(s) for process optimisation and integration testing

Delivery Pipeline and Roadmap:

Drive a high cadence of vehicle integrations, ensuring new vehicle support reaches production at pace
Contribute to the vehicle integration roadmap, prioritising own work accordingly
Track progress against integration targets and proactively flag risks or blockers

Stakeholder Relationships:

Maintain close relationships with vehicle OEMs and bodybuilders to obtain technical documentation and early access to new platforms
Coordinate field research and testing of new integrations with Field Installation Engineers
Act as the technical point of contact for vehicle compatibility queries from internal teams and Field Installation Engineers

Collaboration and Support:

Work closely with the Embedded & Vehicle Systems team to translate findings into firmware and application updates
Contribute to root cause analysis for vehicle compatibility issues raised in the field
Support pre-sales and account management with vehicle compatibility assessments where required

Creativity & Innovation

Proactively identify new approaches to vehicle data acquisition as OEM architectures evolve
Contribute ideas to improve integration tooling, documentation practices, and testing processes
Stay current with EV platform developments and emerging vehicle communication standards

Levels of Responsibility

Accountable for delivery cadence
Works with a high degree of autonomy, reporting progress to the Head of Embedded & Vehicle Systems
Represents Lightfoot externally with OEMs and fleet stakeholders

Key Skills

Supports and embodies Lightfoot's core values: To Care, To Deliver, To Innovate
