Key Responsibilities

• Requirements Engineering & Analysis:

  
  
  

  • Collaborate with system architects and hardware teams to elicit, analyze, and document software requirements for power control, diagnostics, and communication features.

    
    
    

  • Break down system-level specifications into clear, testable software requirements.

    
    
    

  • Maintain requirement documents and ensure traceability from requirements to design and testing.

    
    
    

• Software Integration & Release:

  
  
  

  • Integrate software components, drivers, and application code from various teams into a cohesive and functional software build.

    
    
    

  • Develop and maintain the software build environment, including build automation scripts (CMake, Python) and Continuous Integration (CI/CD) pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab).

    
    
    

  • Manage source code repositories (Git), including branching, merging, and release tagging strategies.

    
    
    

  • Flash integrated software onto target hardware (OBC, DCDC, etc.), perform initial hardware bring-up, and conduct smoke tests to verify core functionality.

    
    
    

• Architecture & Design Support:

  
  
  

  • Assist in the creation and documentation of software architecture and detailed design artifacts.

    
    
    

  • Participate in design and code reviews to ensure requirements are met and architectural principles are followed.

    
    
    

  • Support the link between high-level requirements and low-level implementation, ensuring a clear and logical flow.

    
    
    

• Cross-Functional Collaboration:

  
  
  

  • Act as a key technical bridge between systems engineering, hardware design, software development, and validation teams.

    
    
    

  • Investigate, analyze, and resolve complex software integration issues, build failures, and on-target problems.

    
    
    

  • Contribute to process improvements across the software development lifecycle, championing best practices in line with standards like A-SPICE.

    
    
    

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

  
  
  

• 1+ years of experience in an embedded software development, integration, or systems engineering role.

  
  
  

• Solid programming skills in C.

  
  
  

• Strong understanding of the full software development lifecycle (e.g., V-Model, Agile/Scrum).

  
  
  

• Experience with version control systems, particularly Git.

  
  
  

• Proficiency in at least one scripting language (e.g., Python).

  
  
  

• Hands-on experience with build systems (e.g., Make/CMake) and compilers/linkers for embedded systems.

  
  
  

• Experience with software architecture and design modeling.

  
  
  

• Knowledge of AUTOSAR architecture, including experience with RTE (Runtime Environment) configuration.

  
  
  

• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a hands-on, detail-oriented mindset.

  
  
  

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively in a cross-functional team environment.

  
  
  

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in the automotive industry, especially with power electronics like On-Board Chargers (OBC), DC-DC converters, or Inverters.

  
  
  

• Experience with requirements management tools (e.g.,Polarion)

  
  
  

• Hands-on experience with Continuous Integration (CI) framework and tools (e.g., Jenkins).

  
  
  

• Knowledge of software diagnostics (e.g., UDS, DTCs) and communication protocols (e.g., CAN, LIN).

  
  
  

• Familiarity with automotive software standards like AUTOSAR and functional safety (ISO 26262).

  
  
  

• Familiarity with process models like Automotive SPICE (A-SPICE).

  
  
  

• Experience with embedded microcontrollers (e.g., Infineon Aurix) and hardware debuggers (e.g., Lauterbach TRACE32, UDE).

  
  
  

• Understanding of model-based development (MBD) using tools like MATLAB/Simulink is a plus.
