Luxoft is a global software services company delivering professional solutions across sectors such as Finance, Automotive, and Digital Transformation.

We are establishing a new team focused on developing and enhancing Android Framework components, specifically SystemUI and Homescreen, for our client's In-Vehicle Android Infotainment (IVI) systems. The team aims to understand user interactions with information and vehicle infrastructure to shape the future IVI experience for 2026 and beyond.

Recognizing software as a key driver of innovation and differentiation in automotive environments, we build a software foundation that leverages open-source technologies in alignment with their communities. Our approach incorporates modern continuous integration and continuous delivery practices, extending deployment directly into the vehicle.
