Lead AUTOSAR Software Engineer

Quick Facts

• Role: Lead AUTOSAR Software Engineer (embedded base software)

• Focus: Production and pre-production plant setups, VHIL support, system bring-up, and rapid issue debugging

Description

Lead embedded base software engineering to support VHIL labs, production, and pre-production plant setups. You will debug and triage issues across bootloaders, AUTOSAR OS and middleware (COM, DIAG/DCM, MEM), and support diagnostic flashing and FOTA mechanisms. You will travel to production plants and test facilities to resolve on-site integration problems and ensure system readiness.

Responsibilities

• Debug and triage embedded software issues in Plant, VHIL, and Production setups

• Travel to production plants and test facilities as needed for on-site issue resolution

• Support system bring-up and troubleshooting of bootloaders, AUTOSAR OS, HWIO, COM, DCM, and MEM stacks

• Work with Automotive Ethernet and SOME/IP

• Support diagnostic flashing workflows: UDS-based flashing, DoIP-based flashing, and plant reprogramming

• Collaborate with FOTA teams to debug firmware update mechanisms, including campaign execution, partial updates, and rollback handling

• Develop and maintain tools/scripts for log capture, automated debugging, and flashing workflows

• Ensure comprehensive diagnostic coverage (UDS, DoIP, SOME/IP, OBD-II) and plant readiness

• Collaborate with Base SW, Integration, Cockpit Infotainment, Connectivity, and Plant teams for root-cause analysis

• Document root causes, workarounds, and lessons learned to drive continuous improvement

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical, Mechanical, Aerospace, or Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related engineering

• 5+ years embedded software development experience with C and/or C++

• Ability to technically lead and collaborate with a globally distributed team

• Excellent knowledge of Classic AUTOSAR concepts, architecture, and specifications

• Experience configuring and integrating the AUTOSAR basic software stack including OS, COM, DIAG, and MEM

• Experience with MCAL configuration and developing I/O Hardware Abstraction; ability to interpret hardware schematics

• Experience with multicore architecture and Functional Safety concepts

• Experience with cybersecurity concepts, including HSM configuration and message authentication

• Familiarity with compilers, emulators, debuggers, and other software development tools

• Willingness to travel to production sites and test facilities

Benefits

• Travel opportunities to production sites and test facilities to support real-world readiness

• Opportunity to lead end-to-end base software debugging, bring-up, and integration across production and pre-production environments
