About Lucid

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.

Role Overview

We are currently seeking a Staff Systems Engineer, High Voltage Battery Software to drive development and integration of Lucid’s proprietary Battery Management System (BMS) software. In this role, you will bridge the gap between early-stage prototypes and global production releases, ensuring our energy storage and powertrain systems operate with maximum safety, efficiency, and performance.

This position sits at the intersection of embedded software, power electronics hardware and vehicle network architecture. You will collaborate with engineers across systems engineering, hardware, controls, and verification and validation to perform complex architecture studies and drive architecture decisions, develop robust system requirements and drive hardware and software improvements for current and future Lucid vehicles.

Our ideal candidate exhibits a proactive, can-do attitude and approaches their work systematically and diligently. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate excellence in their respective fields, to possess the ability to learn quickly and to strive for perfection in a fast-paced environment.
