[SystemSafety] C/C++ and Python Top List of Hot Skills for Autonomous Vehicle Engineers

[Martyn Thomas]

This arrived in my inbox today, among the recent safety list emails
about C.

It’s a good time to be an engineer with a background in self-driving
cars—or even an interest in working with autonomous vehicles. According
to job site Indeed.com <http://www.indeed.com/>, the numbers of people
in the United States looking to get into the field or change jobs within
it is skyrocketing, up more than 600 percent in the past three years,
and job listings are just as hot.

Indeed broke its data
<http://blog.indeed.com/2018/10/11/autonomous-vehicles-hiring-trends/>
down by skills, metro area, and company. It considered job postings from
1 August 2017 to 1 August 2018. 

On the skills front, autonomous vehicle companies are most looking to
hire software engineers with experience in C/C++, Python, and image
processing the Indeed data showed; artificial intelligence and machine
learning, no surprise, also come out high on that list. The top ten over
the past year (1 August 2017 to 1 August 2018), below:
