Context

NXP is the market leader in processing, networking and power management solutions for the automotive market and seeks to aggressively accelerate the market. By anticipating market needs and comprehensively responding to them, NXP is extending its value proposition toward system solution.

The automotive market is in an acceleration phase, with massive parallel innovation occurring across all domains with the adoption of the most advanced technologies.

This unique moment in time represents both an unprecedented opportunity for our customers and an extraordinary demand on their resources and capabilities. The three domains of the highest complexity for the market are Software, Functional Safety, and Security. In order to accelerate the migration to the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) and enable early engagement with the automotive OEMs, our strategic objective is to develop system expertise on E/E architecture and SDV.

Role and Responsibilities

This role has a primary objective to contribute to a new E/E architecture organization at NXP. The objective of the E/E architecture team is to build expertise at system level within NXP and to engage with the OEM advanced engineering team to offer support on sub-systems where NXP is building expertise. Such sub-systems are leveraging NXP expertise and portfolio in processing, networking, power management, security and safety.

The specific role here is for a system and Software architect experienced in Architecture investigation who has been involved in the early definition E/E architectural system engineering work with an automotive OEM.

Job Summary

• Use E/E architecture systems and Software engineering tools to understand architecture trade offs and how they are impacted by NXP products – e.g. network topologies, functional safety, wake-up times, communication latencies, security, power distribution & management, etc.
• Use this early E/E architecture understanding to influence the definition of new NXP products (processors, power management, communication interfaces).
• Engage with OEMs to define POC studies showing the benefits of NXP products in real vehicle networks.
• Define/Contribute on SW Architecture for different systems ensuring NXP cross products compatibility and interoperability.

• Engage effectively with OEM to build strong technical relationship; positioning NXP as the trusted partner for automotive HW and SW solutions for E/E architecture & understanding the different OEMs vision for future car architecture.
• Collaborate with NXP technical and commercial teams to define and implement an overall solution positioning; with associated collateral.

Core Competencies

• Experience of E/E and SW architecture definition and development.
• Knowledge and experience of tools used within early E/E and SW architecture definition – understanding tradeoffs and key performance metrics of the OEM.
• 8 years+ experience in automotive market.
• History of engagement with automotive Tier1 and/or OEM.
• Experience in software and system solutions that enable car architecture evolution.
• Strong business and technical acumen, customer focus/ external orientation.
