Based in Mountain View, CA, Cyngn is a publicly-traded autonomous technology company. We deploy self-driving industrial vehicles — specifically autonomous tuggers — to factories, warehouses, and other facilities throughout North America. To build this emergent technology, we are looking for innovative, motivated, and experienced leaders to join us and move this field forward. If you like to build, tinker, and create with a team of trusted and passionate colleagues, then Cyngn is the place for you. Key reasons to join Cyngn:
- We are small and big. With under 100 employees, Cyngn operates with the energy of a startup. On the other hand, we’re publicly traded. This means our employees not only work in close-knit teams with mentorship from company leaders—they also get access to the liquidity of our publicly-traded equity.
- We build today and deploy tomorrow. Our autonomous vehicles aren’t just test concepts—they’re deployed to real clients right now. That means your work will have a tangible, visible impact.
- We aren’t robots. We just develop them. We’re a welcoming, diverse team of sharp thinkers and kind humans. Collaboration and trust drive our creative environment. At Cyngn, everyone’s perspective matters—and that’s what powers our innovation.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Engineering Jobs at Cyngn Jobs
Align your credentials to autonomous systems roles
Cyngn's Engineering roles sit at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and vehicle autonomy. Frame your resume around systems-level work, sensor fusion, or real-time software development so your background maps directly to their technical stack.
Verify your OPT or CPT timeline before applying
F-1 students have a narrow window between graduation and OPT expiration. Confirm your OPT start date, STEM extension eligibility, and the 60-day grace period before targeting Cyngn so your authorization aligns with their typical onboarding timeline.
Target roles that match your specific visa category
Cyngn sponsors multiple visa types, but each category has distinct eligibility requirements. If you're pursuing TN status, confirm your engineering role falls under a qualifying USMCA occupation before submitting an application, since TN classification is role-specific.
Prepare your degree equivalency documentation early
For H-1B specialty occupation filings, USCIS requires a direct connection between your degree field and the job duties. If your degree is from a non-U.S. institution or in an adjacent field, get a credential evaluation from a NACES-approved organization before the offer stage.
Use Migrate Mate to filter open Engineering roles at Cyngn
Sponsorship-eligible Engineering positions at Cyngn aren't always clearly labeled on general job boards. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Cyngn's open roles by visa type so you're applying to positions where sponsorship is already confirmed.
Negotiate your start date around H-1B cap deadlines
H-1B cap-subject petitions must be filed by April 1 for an October 1 start. If you receive an offer in late spring or summer, work with your employer to clarify whether cap-exempt filing or a deferred start date applies to your situation.

Find Engineering at Cyngn JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Cyngn sponsor H-1B visas for Engineers?
Yes, Cyngn has a history of sponsoring H-1B visas for Engineering roles. Because Cyngn's positions in autonomous vehicle technology typically require specialized degrees in fields like computer science, electrical engineering, or robotics, they generally meet USCIS's specialty occupation standard. Confirm sponsorship availability with your recruiter early in the process, since not every open role is approved for sponsorship at the time of posting.
How do I apply for Engineering jobs at Cyngn?
Applications for Cyngn Engineering roles go through their careers page, but sponsorship-eligible positions aren't always clearly flagged there. Migrate Mate lets you browse Cyngn's open Engineering roles filtered by visa type, so you can identify the right opportunities before applying. Tailor your application to highlight relevant experience in autonomous systems, robotics, or embedded software to align with Cyngn's core technical needs.
Which visa types does Cyngn commonly sponsor for Engineering roles?
Cyngn sponsors multiple visa categories for Engineering positions, including H-1B, F-1 OPT and CPT, TN, and employment-based Green Card pathways such as EB-2 and EB-3. The right category depends on your nationality, current status, and the specific role. TN visas are available to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying engineering occupations, while H-1B and Green Card paths cover a broader range of nationalities and roles.
What qualifications and experience does Cyngn expect for Engineering roles?
Cyngn's Engineering team works on autonomous industrial vehicles, so roles typically require backgrounds in robotics, computer vision, embedded systems, full-stack software, or vehicle autonomy. A bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or a closely related field is standard. Hands-on experience with real-time systems, ROS, sensor integration, or machine learning frameworks tends to carry significant weight in their technical review process.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take for Cyngn Engineering hires?
Timelines vary by visa type. F-1 OPT can begin shortly after graduation, while H-1B cap-subject filings require a March lottery registration and a minimum October 1 start date, meaning the process can take six months or more from offer to first day. PERM-based Green Card sponsorship for EB-2 or EB-3 involves DOL labor market testing and typically runs 12 to 24 months before the petition stage even begins.
