Summary

JD:
We are seeking a Senior Software Technical Expert specializing in AUTOSAR-based ECU platforms. This role is focused on Classic/Adaptive AUTOSAR architecture, BSW, MCAL, and ECU-level software integration within complex vehicle network topologies. The role combines deep hands-on troubleshooting with architectural leadership and cross-team coordination.

Key Responsibilities
• Provide real-time, hands-on support to engineering teams for triage, debugging, and reproduction of AUTOSAR ECU issues.
• Perform in-person code, configuration, and design reviews for AUTOSAR BSW, MCAL, RTE, and application layers with internal and supplier teams.
• Guide issue root-cause analysis and resolution, ensuring no regressions and compliance with quality standards.
• Lead cross-module technical discussions to resolve ownership issues across AUTOSAR stacks, MCAL, and application teams.
• Work closely with systems, electrical, vehicle integration, and validation teams to define clear software requirements.
• Ensure seamless ECU integration across CAN, LIN, and Automotive Ethernet networks.
• Promote best practices in AUTOSAR architecture, configuration management, validation, and reuse.
• Mentor senior engineers on AUTOSAR concepts, architecture, and implementation patterns.
• Support long-term AUTOSAR roadmap and platform strategy, aligned with product and business needs.

Basic Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
• 15+ years of embedded software experience, with strong emphasis on:
o AUTOSAR Classic and/or Adaptive
o BSW architecture and configuration
o MCAL and low-level drivers
• Expert-level C/C++ programming skills.
• Deep understanding of AUTOSAR methodology, tooling, and workflows.
• Hands-on experience with AUTOSAR authoring tools (DaVinci, SystemDesk, or equivalent).
• Strong knowledge of vehicle architectures and automotive networking (CAN, LIN, Ethernet).
• End-to-end experience with SDLC and V-model development.
• Solid understanding of ASPICE and automotive product development processes.
• Ability to work onsite full-time.
• Strong communication, leadership, and technical influencing skills.

Preferred Qualifications
• Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant engineering field.
• Experience across multiple vehicle ECUs and domains (Body, Chassis, Powertrain, ADAS).
• Experience with functional safety (ISO 26262) concepts and ASIL-based development.
• Familiarity with automotive cybersecurity principles (ISO/SAE 21434).
• Scripting experience (Python, Shell) and exposure to CI/CD pipelines.

We are seeking a self-motivated and highly experienced software engineering expert who can provide right technical direction and insights into the product development and facilitate their implementation. The person needs to be a hands-on, passionate, and proactive leader with an in-depth understanding of ECU software and its interaction in a complex vehicle network topology.

Responsibilities:
• Provide real-time guidance and hands-on assistance to the local team triaging and reproducing issues.
• Perform efficient and effective in-person code and design reviews with in-house as well as supplier's team.
• Provide directions on issue resolutions ensuring high quality deliverables with no regression.
• Work closely with the cross-functional teams to ensure well-defined requirements and strategies.
• Steer cross-modules discussions to quickly diagnose the issue trail and settle any ownership dispute between module owners.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (electrical, mechanical, systems) to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance.
• Drive innovation through research, prototyping, and evaluation of emerging technologies.
• Establish and promote best practices in design, validation, and compliance with industry standards.
• Mentor senior engineers and contribute to talent development across the software organization.
• Influence long-term technology strategy and roadmap in alignment with business goals.

Basic Qualifications:
