Role Description

We are seeking a skilled Embedded Software Engineer with strong expertise in FreeRTOS/bare-metal development to support next-generation automotive ECU platforms. This role involves hands-on development, board bring-up, and low-level driver implementation in a non-AUTOSAR environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop embedded software for automotive ECU platforms using Embedded C/C++
• Design and implement solutions in bare-metal and RTOS environments (FreeRTOS/Zephyr)
• Perform board bring-up, hardware validation, and debugging
• Develop and integrate low-level device drivers (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, ADC, PWM)
• Collaborate with hardware teams for system integration and issue resolution
• Conduct low-level debugging using tools such as JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers
• Support integration of communication protocols such as CAN and LIN
• Participate in design reviews, architecture discussions, and technical decisions
• Prepare and maintain technical documentation (design specs, debug reports, integration notes)
• Interface with customers for technical discussions and status updates
• Ensure adherence to automotive quality standards and best practices

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in embedded software development
• Strong programming skills in Embedded C/C++
• Hands-on experience with FreeRTOS or Zephyr

• Strong understanding of microcontrollers (STM32, NXP, or similar)
• Experience in device driver development
• Familiarity with CAN and LIN communication protocols
• Proficiency in low-level debugging tools (JTAG, oscilloscope, etc.)
• Experience working in non-AUTOSAR environments (mandatory)
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

Behavioral Competencies

• Strong ownership and accountability
• Effective communication with internal teams and customers
• Structured approach to documentation and reporting
