Senior Scala Engineer (offline)

HD Live Map creates a highly detailed and dynamic representation of the road environment. It is composed of tiles and contains dynamic content layers, each providing different details: lane level information, dynamic road network, situation changes, and speed profile data. These layers combine long-standing content (HD Map), temporary information (Live Roads), and analytics data (Humanized Driving).

HD Live Map is the world’s first tile-based cloud service that supports connected ADAS with dynamic traffic flow data, real-time incident reporting and speed profile data derived from rich behavior information.

HD Live Map architecture is built on distributed computing with Apache Spark at its core. Hidden behind the interfaces, Spark makes the work with geo data much easier and effective. Such architecture aspects give you a great opportunity to dive into distributed computing and get a hands-on experience with Apache Spark, AWS EMR service, and Scala. In addition to HD Live Map, there is a bunch of smaller related products that you can develop and optimize.

Although the data model is quite complex, you’ll get a great opportunity to learn the insights of data structures and map compression tricks that enable Map high-performance on the vehicle built-in systems.
