We are looking for engineers as well as for interns for 4 up to 8 months paid internships with the prospect of long term contracts at the end of a successful period. We would be interested in receiving CVs and application from students interested in such opportunity.

Obviously we are looking for Ruby expertise but you will find a more global offer below, this will give you a window into our organisation and work.

To give you a bit of background, the company is already quite international, everybody developing for us speaks English and we already have 6 different nationalities represented (Chinese, Italian, Algerian, Swedish, Polish and French).

MobileDevices is an international company and sell to 47 different countries and already have sales offices in Singapore, London, US, France, China and technical ones in China, Ireland and France.

We have rapidly evolved into one of the world leader in telematics systems for vehicles.

We are looking for computer science engineers from the technical project manager to the Phd in graph theory.

System team :

You will work on all our platform as well as customers one. Porting the boot-loader, developing advanced memory/energy management as well as other drivers, enhancing the VM…

Core team :

The core software is an event driven component based architecture. It involves meta-programming (code generation) in Ruby or XSLT, high level services development (UDP/TCP protocols, dead reckoning algorithms, navigation routing engine…), drivers logic (2G and 3G modems integration, bluetooth modules, ...) and many other things (graphical engine, ...) in mostly C++ and some Java.

Services team :

Directly working with the graphical designers, server team and core team, you will develop in Java and Ruby applications that will then be found in our products (navigation application, chat application, live trafic, movie reservation…)

SDK team:

Every great OS needs a development platform. From the emulation with QEMU to the graphical designer in EMF or GMF you will participate to the elaboration of our Eclipse based SDK called Morpheus.

Test team:

Validation is a major issue for all development teams that create a lot of code. Creating tools that can validate the code, check the regressions, the hardware compatibility. Mostly developing them in Ruby some drivers are in C.

Server team:

Bridge devices to the vast ecosystem of consumer services (think Twitter, Facebook…), fleet management and data analytics. The communication server is built to scale to millions of devices with impressive reliability and versatility (Heterogenous cloud in Erlang and Ruby / Rails, PostgreSQL and NoSQL databases, bi-directional push via web services and XMPP). The team also provides a Widget SDK to remotely communicate with the device (Javascript, HTML / Ruby).
