Staff Hardware Engineer responsible for hardware design of compute and sensor systems for autonomous vehicles. Leading prototype integration, validation, and cross - functional collaboration for mission - critical logistics.
About the role
- Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer developing next generation electric vehicles through hardware and software integration. Collaborating with systems engineers for optimized firmware and diagnostics.
Responsibilities
- Hardware Bring Up and BSP
- First power, smoke tests, and board validation; debug HW/SI with scope, logic analyser, JTAG, and SWD.
- Develop BSP/HAL for MCU/SoC (clocking, reset, power domains, DMA, MPU/MMU, peripherals).
- Define pin mux, memory maps, linker scripts, start up code, and low level error handling.
- Implement secure/OTA bootloaders, image management, rollback, and manufacturing flash flows.
- Own RTOS or bare metal tasking, scheduling, and timing budgets; ensure determinism and low jitter.
- Power management (sleep/standby, wake sources, brownout/voltage supervision).
- Build and maintain stacks: CAN FD, LIN, Ethernet and 10BASE T1S, UDS/OBD, XCP/CCP, NVM/EEPROM.
- Develop sensor and actuator drivers (ADC, PWM, SPI, I²C, QEP, SENT) with calibration hooks and rate grouping.
- Provide logging and trace, time sync, and replay hooks compatible with in house performance tools.
- Integrate watchdogs, start up or BIST, plausibility checks, DTC storage, and fault escalation paths.
- Provide FuSa aligned hooks (FTTI and latency budgets, diagnostic coverage inputs) and contribute evidence to the safety case.
- Stand up SIL and HIL benches, stubs and mocks, unit and integration tests; automate regression gates in CI.
- Support bring up to vehicle: flashing, calibration tooling, shadow or A B deploys, and trace capture.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical, Mechatronics, Computer or Embedded Systems, or related.
- 7+ years embedded development on safety relevant MCUs (for example AURIX, S32K or S32G, STM32, RH850).
- Expert in C (C++ nice), RTOS or bare metal, ISRs, DMA, linker scripts, memory and performance tuning.
- Proven BSP/HAL, bootloader/OTA, and middleware delivery (CAN FD, LIN, Ethernet T1, UDS/OBD, NVM).
- Hands on hardware bring up (schematics, DMM, scope, logic analyser, JTAG or SWD) and SI or power debug.
- Experience with diagnostics and fault management, calibration workflows, and SIL or HIL test setups.
- Quality mindset: MISRA C, static and dynamic analysis, code reviews, CI with Bazel or CMake, unit testing with Unity or CMock.
