More than 2,000 jobs are posted for the development of autonomous cars, according to the job search engine Indeed Hiring Lab. GM and Google dominate the list with nearly a fifth of the postings. But also Ford, Bosch and the electric vehicle startup Atieva from Menlo Park are intensively looking for engineers.

The efforts of the big German car-makers seem comparatively unambitious. Daimler, BMW and BMW-Mini together have a bit over half of positions open that Google alone has. And the Volkswagen Group is not even making it into the list of the Top 15 companies.
