Overview

We are seeking an experienced Automotive SoC Platform Software Engineer to design, develop, and integrate foundational software for next-generation automotive electronic control units and computing platforms.

Responsibilities

• We are seeking an experienced Automotive SoC Platform Software Engineer to design, develop, and integrate foundational software for next-generation automotive electronic control units and computing platforms. In this role, you will lead the development of Board
• Support Packages (BSP), device drivers, OS abstractions, and low-level communication infrastructure across high-performance automotive system-on-chip (SoC) architectures (e.g., Qualcomm SA8xxx, Renesas R-Car, NVIDIA Orin, TI). You will collaborate closely with hardware, systems, functional safety, and software teams to deliver secure, real-time, deterministic, and safety-compliant platform foundation software from early silicon bring-up to production release.
• Foundation Software & BSP Development
• Architect, design, develop, and optimize automotive SoC platform foundation software, Board Support Packages (BSP), and low-level device drivers in C/C++.
• Lead board bring-up, OS porting, and platform initialization across multi-core, heterogeneous CPU/GPU/accelerator architectures.
• Configure and develop drivers for high-speed and automotive communication interfaces, including PCIe, Ethernet, CAN, SPI, UART, USB, and XCP.
• Implement and optimize low-level memory management and storage drivers for DDR, UFS, Flash ROM, and configure MMU/MPU subsystems.
• OS, Hypervisor & Runtime Platforms
• Integrate, configure, and maintain POSIX-compliant operating systems, real-time operating systems (RTOS), QNX, and automotive virtualization layers/hypervisors.
• Implement robust inter-core communication (IPC), inter-process communication mechanisms, and resource virtualization across heterogeneous compute engines (CPU, GPU, Tensor Processing Units/accelerators).
• Support container engines and middleware execution environments tailored for automotive software stacks.
• Drive low-level performance profiling, multi-threading optimization, memory leak mitigation, and latency minimization.
• Hardware-Software Integration & Bring-Up
• Analyze schematics, IC datasheets, and electrical block diagrams to configure pin multiplexing, clocks, power domains, and low-level peripheral controllers.
• Troubleshoot complex low-level hardware/software timing issues using hardware debuggers, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
• Work closely with hardware engineering teams during prototyping, silicon bring-up, and engineering validation test (EVT) phases.
• Automotive Quality, Safety & Security
• Implement secure boot flows, cryptographic authentication methods, and integrate hardware crypto algorithms for system integrity.
• Ensure code quality, maintainability, and standard compliance using MISRA C/C++ rules, static analysis, and code review processes.
• Support development within V-Model, ASPICE, and ISO 26262 functional safety frameworks, adhering to automotive cybersecurity guidelines.
• Participate in CI/CD pipeline automation to ensure automated builds, continuous integration, static analysis, and regression testing on target hardware benches.

Qualifications

• Strong experience in C/C++ development for automotive embedded systems, with the ability to develop automotive SoC platform foundation software.
• SoC Architecture: Qualcomm SA8xxx, Renesas RCAR, Nvidia Orin, TI.
