• Work as a principal technical contributor in the definition, design, implementation and verification of the software of a high-performance AI-based camera and perception module for ADAS systems.
• Utilize formal design processes to develop software that meets the high-reliability and functional safety requirements of the the perception module.
• Contribute to the selection, integration and debug of real-time operating systems (RTOS).
• Integrate (or develop where necessary) low-level I/O drivers (e.g. Automotive Ethernet, USB, GPIO, etc.).
• Implement cryptographic integrity checking, secure boot (with hard time-to-operational requirements) and over-the-air update lifecycle functionalities for the embedded software.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers designing application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC) in the selection of embedded CPU cores (e.g. ARM, RISC-V, etc.), as well as supporting functionality variants of those cores (e.g. MMU, MPU, VLIW vector units, etc.).
• Perform system bringup, debugging and testing.
• Perform requirements analysis and author high-level and detailed requirements.
• Troubleshoot software issues and fix defects.
• Write test specifications and integration tests.
• Architect and maintain automated software build flows, integrate with continuous integration (CI) systems, and author scripts and utilities.

Qualifications

• 3 years of experience developing embedded software.
• Excellent proficiency in C/C programming coupled with a genuine passion for embedded software development.
• Experience with low-level RTOSes (QNX, vxWorks, ThreadX, etc.) and developing device drivers for them.
• Experience with embedded development IDEs and debuggers (gdb, lldb, etc.) and JTAG-based debugging.
• Experience with embedded development tool-chains and cross-compilation methodologies.
• Experience with multiprocessor-based embedded systems.
• Experience with software architecture, development and testing best practices.
• Experience with automated software testing systems for embedded systems.
