- Optimize communication architecture for latency, throughput, resource usage, and determinism in real-time and virtualized environments (e.g., QNX, Linux, Android GVM)
- Debug and troubleshoot ethernet communication related issues across hardware and software layers using tools like JTAG, tracing frameworks, and logic analyzers
- Implement safety- and security-aware features impacted by ethernet based communications aligned with ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434
- Provide technical guidance to specialists (and/or technical references) in their field of expertise
- Transfers knowledge internally via trainings and expertise webinars
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- A minimum of 10 years of experience in embedded software development, with a focus on SoC platforms or communication frameworks
- Experience in designing networks for distributed embedded systems
- Experience in system design and architecture; experience in SW architecture
- Able to design, write, review, debug and guide SW development
- Strong experience in analyzing ethernet data trace logs
- Strong background in working with multiple ethernet protocols such as SOME/IP, CAN-over-ethernet ( PSOME/IP, raw PDUs), DDS, MQTT, etc.
- Ability to effectively present to multi-discipline and multicultural audiences in English
- Strong proficiency in Advanced C and C++ (14/17+), with a solid understanding of multicore and embedded systems
- Familiarity with QNX, Linux, or RTOS environments
- Familiarity with network hardware such as Ethernet switches and associated software for such HW peripherals
- Experience in board bring-up, BSPs, or driver integration for SoCs is preferred
- Understanding of performance optimization and system profiling techniques
- Strong analytical, debugging, and documentation skills
Preferred Qualifications:
- Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- Experience with virtualization and domain communication in hypervisor-based systems (e.g., QNX Hypervisor, Android GVM)
