Meet the Team
The Calibration and Systems Diagnostics Team at Torc is responsible for developing critical diagnostics software that ensures the safety, serviceability, and performance of our autonomous vehicle platforms. As a member of this team, you’ll work on next-generation automotive diagnostic solutions that interface with electronic control units (ECUs), enabling both in-vehicle and remote fault detection, data logging, and recovery strategies.
What You’ll Do
- Design, implement, and maintain diagnostic software and communication stacks based on automotive protocols including UDS (ISO 14229), SOVD, and CAN (ISO 11898).
- Integrate and manage CDD files for ECU diagnostics, ensuring compliance with OEM specifications.
- Develop diagnostic services supporting fault memory, DTCs, routine control, and data identifiers using UDS over CAN and DoIP.
- Implement and validate service-oriented architectures (SOA) using technologies like SOME/IP, SOVD, and Ethernet.
- Collaborate with functional safety teams to ensure solutions comply with ISO 26262 standards.
- Support integration and debugging of diagnostics features on HIL benches and test vehicles.
- Work cross-functionally with cloud and edge-based systems to enable remote diagnostics, telemetry, and OTA capabilities.
- Contribute to the development of robust error handling, logging, and recovery mechanisms for ECUs and vehicle systems.
What You’ll Need to Succeed
- Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 4+ years of experience (or a Master’s Degree with 1+ years of experience).
- Strong proficiency in C/C++ and Python for embedded systems.
- Experience developing embedded or diagnostics software in the automotive industry.
- Experience with vehicle communication stacks (e.g., CAN, DoIP, Ethernet) and knowledge on sensor connectivity using RS232, CAN and/or GMSL
- Hands-on experience with UDS diagnostic services, and service development using CDD files.
- Familiarity with ISO 26262 and development of ASIL-compliant systems.
- Strong debugging and validation skills in an automotive environment, including HIL/SIL setups.
- Understanding of automotive cybersecurity principles and secure communication protocols.
Bonus Points!
- Familiarity with AUTOSAR architecture and service interfaces.
- Hands on experience implementing Service oriented vehicle diagnostics(SOVD) using REST API protocol
- Experience working with OTA update frameworks or remote diagnostic platforms.
- Knowledge of cloud-integrated vehicle health monitoring and predictive maintenance systems.
- Exposure to DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
