At Sonatus, we’re driving the transformation to AI-enabled software-defined vehicles.

Headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA, with 250+ employees worldwide, Sonatus combines the agility of a fast-growing company with the scale and impact of an established partner. Backed by strong funding and proven by global deployment, we’re solving some of the most interesting and complex challenges in the industry. Join us and help redefine what’s possible as we shape the future of mobility.
We are seeking a highly experienced Solutions Architect to lead system-level architecture and technical direction by bridging complex customer requirements with robust, production-ready designs. As a pivotal member of the Customer Solutions Team, you will define scalable architectures, optimize system performance, and influence internal product roadmaps using real-world deployment insights. A strong background in vehicle networking—specifically across CAN, Automotive Ethernet, and related protocols—is essential, as you will be responsible for designing and optimizing in-vehicle communication systems. The ideal candidate will seamlessly blend deep architectural strategy with hands-on engineering expertise to deliver high-impact, tailored solutions that align with diverse deployment environments and business objectives.
