About the company:

Doing something different is never easy. It requires courage, optimism and grit. Core to our mission is building a team of adventurous individuals determined to make a positive impact on the world. This means challenging ourselves constantly. Stretching beyond the bounds of conventional thinking. Reframing old problems. Seeking new solutions. And operating comfortably in a space of uncertainty. While our backgrounds are diverse, our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations. Do you like doing the impossible? We’d love to hear from you.

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract. 

As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations. 

As the Senior Support Engineer – Connected Fleet Operations, you will be responsible for supporting a 24/7 global support and operations team function that will maintain multi-cellular and multi-access connectivity to Rivian vehicles, thereby allowing robust connectivity and software updates for not only today’s adventures but tomorrow’s as well.

Specifically, this role will proactively monitor, triage, and support fleet management software spanning connectivity and OTA (Over-the-Air) software updates, telematics, vehicle health, service, purchasing, across Rivian’s global fleet. Escalate issues to the appropriate internal/external team and/or carrier, and assist in the validation of new features/integrations that enable Rivian to execute on our core fleet services. 

This role is situated meaningfully within vehicle software engineering with cross-functional visibility and is a ground floor opportunity to revolutionise the connected car segment with an always connected vehicle that uploads thousands of signals every minute.

This is what you’ll do:

  • Ensure robust connectivity for all consumer/commercial vehicles by proactively monitoring connectivity and anomalies across Rivian’s global fleet to remotely resolve issues.
  • Assist in enabling and tracking OTA software update campaigns and processes across Rivian’s global fleet and promptly triage or resolve issues.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert in regard to connectivity and OTA on Rivian vehicles and provide education to internal Rivian teams on Tier 1 and Tier 2 support and diagnostics.
  • Operate a Tier 3 support desk that can receive connectivity/OTA/Fleet escalations from multiple teams such as service centers, engineering, and customer experience centers.
  • Responsible for predicting, testing and validating connectivity, OTA and vehicle telematics solutions, fleet management application support, end to end in partnership with Rivian Engineering, vendors, and network operators.
  • Promptly triage, resolve, or escalate issues to engineering and/or the network carrier. Track the progress of escalated issues to ensure SLAs are met and that Rivian is providing the best possible support experience.
  • Work cross-functionally with engineering, product, design to onboard new carriers and validate new integrations/features prior to releasing to production.
  • Proactively monitor, publish and communicate carrier network outages, known issues, service bulletins, and work with the appropriate resources to resolve carrier issues. Identify trending issues early and proactively escalate internally.

This is what you’ll need:

  • A bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or another related field
  • 5 + years working as Tier 3 technical support engineer/escalation lead or network operations within the IoT, fleet management/ wireless/networking, or connected car/EV industries
  • Available to meet the requirements to support operations including readiness for shift work and on-call support during weekends
  • Experience with IoT solutions that involve complex OTA campaigns, fleet management software lifecycle management, API/network integrations with various cell carriers/connectivity management platforms, and eSIM providers
  • Familiarity with various cellular & Wi-Fi technology components such as 4G/5G, Wi-Fi connectivity management, and Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Experience with Web Development/programming background and familiarity with Python, JavaScript and RestAPIs is an added asset
  • Experience and willingness to provide multi-channel support through Phone, Web, E-mail and Chat
  • Self-motivated with the ability to dive right in, develop effective processes, and work to ensure our vehicles remain connected
  • Strong cross-functional experience with engineering, customer support, design and product management
  • Confidence and ability to lead troubleshooting and escalation efforts with internal teams and third party service providers

This is where you’ll work:

  • Department: Vehicle Software Engineering
  • Location: Belgrade, Serbia
