Key Responsibilities
- Execute software bring-up on customer hardware platforms (e.g., automotive-grade SoCs and ADAS compute platforms).
- Port and configure Linux-based systems, real-time operating systems, and Adaptive AUTOSAR environments.
- Integrate and validate drivers, middleware, and boot-time configurations.
- Collaborate with Verification and Release teams to integrate hardware into CI/CD pipelines, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), and test infrastructure.
- Work with OEM and Tier 1 partners to resolve hardware-specific integration issues.
- Implement system-level diagnostics, logging, and secure boot configurations.
- Develop automation for hardware setup, flashing, health checks, and test execution on target platforms.
- 5+ years of experience in embedded or automotive software development, with hands-on platform bring-up experience.
- Strong proficiency in C++, Bash, and Python.
- Proven experience working with and modifying middleware (e.g., DDS-based systems) and communication protocols such as gRPC or similar.
- Deep understanding of Linux-based embedded systems (e.g., Yocto, systemd, bootloaders, device trees).
- Familiarity with real-time operating systems and Adaptive AUTOSAR environments, including configuration and debugging on target hardware.
- Experience with bring-up on automotive-grade SoCs (e.g., NVIDIA Orin-class, Qualcomm Ride-class, Renesas, TI, or similar platforms).
- Comfortable using hardware debuggers, flashing tools, serial consoles, and board support packages (BSPs).
- Familiarity with communication protocols such as CAN, Ethernet, PCIe, SPI, and I2C.
- Hands-on experience integrating embedded platforms into CI/CD pipelines and test automation frameworks.
- Exposure to automotive verification environments (e.g., HIL systems, Vector toolchains, custom CI rigs).
- Experience working in safety-critical domains, with knowledge of ISO 26262, boot-time determinism, and watchdog mechanisms.
- Understanding of secure boot, OTA updates, and system-level cybersecurity principles.
- Familiarity with containerisation, CI tooling, version control systems, and artifact management platforms.
