Job/Position Summary

We are seeking a Lead Base Software SoC Engineerto support VHIL labs, production environments, and pre-production plant setups. This role requires broad systems expertise in embedded software platforms and infotainment subsystems (Displays, Touch Interfaces, Cameras, Audio, Connectivity) with hands-on debugging across Bootloaders, Operating Systems (QNX, Linux, Android) & Hypervisors, Middleware stacks, Diagnostics frameworks, HPC SoC platforms Flashing tools and FOTA processes. The engineer will act as a first responder in production environments, driving rapid issue resolution and ensuring system readiness for vehicle integration.

Key Responsibilities

• Debug and triage embedded software issues in Plant, VHIL, and Production setups
• Travel as required to production plants, test facilities to support on-site issue resolution
• Support system bring-up and troubleshooting of bootloaders, OS, hypervisors, middleware stacks, and diagnostics
• Debug and validate infotainment peripherals and connectivity subsystems, including
• Touch Interfaces – driver bring-up, calibration, responsiveness, and UI integration
• Audio – HAL customization, DSP integration, routing, amplifiers, codecs
• BTWiFi – connectivity stacks, pairing, diagnostics, integration
• Radio Tuners – AMFM, DAB, SXM, tuner HAL and middleware integration
• USB and Automotive Ethernet subsystems.
• Support diagnostic flashing processes (UDS-based flashing, DoIP-based flashing, plant reprogramming workflows)
• Collaborate with FOTA teams to debug Firmware Over-The-Air update mechanisms, including campaign execution, partial updates, and rollback handling
• Develop and maintain toolsscripts for log capture, automated debugging, and flashing workflows
• Ensure comprehensive diagnostic coverage (UDS, DoIP, SOMEIP, OBD-II) and plant readiness
• Collaborate with Base SW, Integration, Cockpit Infotainment, Connectivity, and Plant teams for root-cause analysis and resolution
• Document and share root causes, workarounds, and lessons learned to drive continuous improvement
