Résumé du poste

ALTEN Technology USA in Irvine, CA is seeking a Lead Software Engineer to own software and validation for RTOS-based automotive ECUs. You will lead a team through board bring-up, hardware/software integration, and development of verification pipelines across multiple hardware generations.

The role requires 8+ years of embedded software experience, strong C/C++, FreeRTOS/SafeRTOS knowledge, and hands-on debugging with JTAG/SWD.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 8+ years of embedded software experience on microcontrollers such as Infineon, NXP, or ARM.
• Solid understanding of FreeRTOS or SafeRTOS fundamentals: tasks, scheduling, interrupts, synchronization, and memory management.
• Experience bringing up or configuring at least one RTOS-based platform.
• Proficiency with embedded debugging tools (JTAG/SWD, Lauterbach or similar, in-circuit debuggers, flashing tools) and lab equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, multimeter, power supplies)
• C/C++ for bare-metal and RTOS, plus Python or Rust
• Board bring-up and low-level drivers for SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO, timers, ADC/DAC, and external memories
• Automotive diagnostics and flashing (UDS, CAN, automotive Ethernet)

Responsabilités

• Ramp up on the existing codebase, build pipeline, and regression testing.
• Develop and maintain the software stack for hardware verification and validation of RTOS-based automotive ECUs.
• Perform board bring-up, verification, and debugging of automotive electronics.
• Debug and triage across the software and hardware stack, and work with multiple teams to resolve issues.
• Use build systems, device trees, and kernel driver development (essential).
• Communicate clearly with peers, stakeholders, customers, technical leaders, and OEMs/ODMs.
• Collaborate with architecture, hardware, and software teams on debugging and validation.
• Train and guide junior engineers.
• Provide weekly status, risk, and decision documentation to program leadership.
