The Autonomy Hardware Systems V&V team is seeking a contract Embedded Software Engineer to
develop embedded software and tooling for safety-critical automated test infrastructure. You''''ll be working
cross-functionally to develop sensor emulators and test frameworks.
Responsibilities:
• Architect, implement, and maintain production-quality C++ applications for embedded Linux, with a
focus on low-latency, high-performance user- and kernel-space solutions
• Design Python-based automation frameworks and tooling to streamline test execution, integration, and
performance validation
• Build and expand hardware/software sensor emulators, and maintain and extend existing test assets
and validation frameworks
• Integrate embedded software with FPGA-based and ECU hardware over interfaces such as Ethernet,
I2C, SPI, and CAN
• Test and troubleshoot hardware and software issues, executing end-to-end verification strategies to
ensure product quality and reliability
Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor''''s or Master''''s in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field, with 4+ years of
relevant industry experience
• Strong C++ development skills focused on low-latency, high-performance code in user (and ideally
kernel) space
• Extensive Linux development experience, including networking and system-level programming
• Proficiency with Python and test automation (e.g., Pytest), plus Git, build systems (e.g., Bazel), and unit
testing frameworks (e.g., GTest)
• Hands-on experience building hardware/software integration test frameworks using embedded
interfaces (Ethernet, I2C, SPI, CAN)
Bonus Qualifications:
• Linux kernel development and device driver implementation, including embedded software for ARM
cores using Xilinx SDK and MPSoC platforms
• Experience with Yocto or Petalinux, and familiarity with FPGA development, System Verilog, and HDL
verification
• Experience with high-speed protocols (PCIe, MIPI CSI-2), Precision Time Protocol (PTP / IEEE 1588),
and Automotive Ethernet
• Ability to read and analyze electronic schematics, with knowledge of PCB design and manufacturing
workflows
