What you’ll do
- Own and build the infrastructure that enables rapid, reliable iteration of vehicle software and electronics.
- Develop and implement toolchains spanning: Code commit → build → ECU flashing → vehicle/HIL testing → data logging → analysis.
- Build internal developer tools (CLI, services, dashboards) to streamline engineering workflows with reliability and performance of integration pipelines.
- Develop CI/CD systems tailored for embedded and distributed vehicle software with cross-compilation and artifact management.
- Automate ECU flashing (UDS, bootloaders) across benches and vehicles and OTA package generation and deployment workflows with integrating HIL rigs into automated pipelines.
- Work directly with vehicle networks (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet) and develop tooling to monitor and simulate bus traffic, validate signal-level behavior across ECUs.
- Debug issues spanning firmware, middleware, and physical hardware.
- Create pipelines for ingesting and analyzing vehicle telemetry and test data.
- Develop tools for log parsing (CAN traces, diagnostic logs), real-time monitoring and alerting.
- Enable engineers to quickly root-cause issues from large datasets.
- Drive adoption of best practices in versioning, branching, and release management.
What you’ll bring
- A Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or a related field with 10+ years of experience.
- Strong understanding of vehicle E/E architecture and ECU-level software stacks, automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet), UDS diagnostics (ISO 14229) and diagnostic communication tools.
- Expert knowledge of GitHub/GitLab, Jenkins, and Artifactory. ALM/PLM proficiency in Codebeamer, Siemens Polarion, IBM DOORS Next Gen, or PTC Windchill.
- Strong understanding, development and scaling of vehicle toolchain, data systems across fleet for development and analytics.
- Strong understanding of 1st principles in Engineering, result/solution oriented.
- Familiarity with SW for embedded systems, EE systems and architecture.
- Familiarity with A2B, CAN, Automotive Ethernet, LIN, LVDS communication protocols and Vehicle Network tools, such as CANalyzer, CANoe, etc.
- Expertise with complex problem solving, data analysis, access/interpret/drive results with extended teams.
- Knowledge of Automotive design and development process, system requirements, and general engineering best practices.
