Vehicle network testing and diagnostics tools for automotive OEMs and suppliers
Intrepid Control Systems builds hardware and software for automotive network testing—CAN, CAN FD, Automotive Ethernet, and related embedded protocols. The tech stack is mature and distributed across embedded C/C++, cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Kubernetes), and modern frontend tooling (React, TypeScript), reflecting a product that spans physical hardware, data collection, and cloud analytics. Current hiring is engineering-focused (5 roles) at intern and junior levels, suggesting active product development and feature velocity rather than major organizational scaling.
