Job description
Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Farmington Hills, MI, Kyyba has a global presence delivering high-quality resources and top-notch recruiting services, enabling businesses to effectively respond to organizational changes and technological advances.
At Kyyba, the overall well-being of our employees and their families is important to us. We are proud of our work culture which embodies our core values; incorporating value, passion, excellence, empowerment, and happiness, creates a vibrant and productive atmosphere. We empower our employees with the resources, incentives, and flexibility that they need to support a healthy, balanced, and fulfilling career by providing many valuable benefits and a balanced compensation structure combined with career development.
Employees in this job function are responsible for developing, integrating, configuring, and validating embedded software for automotive Body Control Modules (BCMs) and microcontroller-based platforms. The role focuses on AUTOSAR Classic Platform integration, embedded C/C++ development, MCU bring-up, low-level driver configuration, and hardware-software integration. The position involves working with AUTOSAR Basic Software (BSW), operating systems, CAN/LIN communication stacks, middleware, and application interfaces to support existing vehicle architectures and next-generation vehicle systems. The engineer will work closely with cross-functional teams to resolve integration issues, optimize platform performance, and support the delivery of validated embedded software.
- 1. MCU and Low-Level Bring-Up: Bring up the microcontroller platform, including clock configuration, pin mapping, memory initialization, interrupts, and peripheral configuration.
- 2. Configure and validate Microcontroller Abstraction Layer (MCAL) drivers and resolve hardware-software integration issues.
- 3. Embedded Software Development: Design, develop, and debug embedded C software for low-level and platform components as needed. Maintain clear interfaces between drivers, middleware, and application software.
- 4. AUTOSAR BSW and OS Configuration: Configure, integrate, and validate the AUTOSAR Basic Software (BSW) baseline and operating system.
- 5. Establish task scheduling, interrupt handling, initialization sequences, and platform startup behavior.
- 6. CAN/LIN Integration: Integrate CAN DBC and LIN LDF communication descriptions into platform configuration. Configure drivers, communication stacks, signal mapping, message routing, and middleware interfaces.
- 7. Low-Power and Sleep/Wake Management: Implement and validate power-state transitions, sleep-entry conditions, wake-up sources, and restoration of platform services.
- 8. Verify sleep current, wake-up timing, and behavior during repeated sleep/wake cycles. Coordinate relevant ECU and BSW state-management configurations.
- 9. Application Translation Layer: Develop and maintain a translation layer connecting non-AUTOSAR C applications to ECU middleware through agreed interfaces. Handle data conversion, signal mapping, API adaptation, and error reporting while maintaining a clear AUTOSAR/non-AUTOSAR boundary.
- 10. Application Integration: Integrate application components with platform middleware. Validate interface compatibility, initialization order, scheduling, data exchange, and end-to-end behavior.
- 11. Performance Optimization: Measure and optimize RAM usage, CPU load, task execution time, and startup time. Review compiler, linker, and build settings while maintaining functional correctness and timing requirements.
- 12. Integration Issue Resolution: Debug issues across MCU drivers, BSW, OS, middleware, and applications, and track defects through closure.
- 13. Documentation and Release Support: Maintain platform configurations, interface specifications, build instructions, and validation results. Support repeatable builds and release of validated platform software.
