Jobbeschreibung

Position Summary:

We are seeking a Sr. Staff SoC Platform SW Engineer with deep expertise in Android, QNX, Linux, and hypervisor-based systems to lead the development, integration, and optimization of high-performance automotive computing platforms.

This role focuses on Android platform internals, hardware abstraction layers (HAL), power management, inter-processor communication (IPC), low-level device drivers, and multi-OS integration. The ideal candidate will have strong hands‑on experience debugging complex system‑level issues spanning multiple operating systems running in virtualized environments.

You will be part of the Platform Software Engineering team at Stellantis, supporting high-performance computing platforms for ADAS, Digital Cockpit, Instrument Cluster, and Infotainment systems.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead development and integration of Android, QNX, and Linux platforms on high-performance automotive SoCs.
• Drive Android platform integration, including Android boot sequence, HAL, native services, system services, and hardware‑software interfaces.
• Develop and optimize SoC power management, including power modes, suspend/resume, wake‑up sequences, and low‑power state transitions.
• Design, integrate, and debug IPC stacks supporting communication between processors, virtual machines, and operating systems.
• Develop and debug low-level device drivers for hardware interfaces such as PCIe, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, and shared memory.
• Integrate and optimize QNX Hypervisor and other virtualization technologies, including guest OS startup, resource allocation, and inter‑VM communication.
• Lead investigation and resolution of complex field issues, showstoppers, and critical failures spanning Android, QNX, Linux, hypervisor, and underlying SoC hardware.
• Analyze and resolve system crashes, boot failures, power‑state transition failures, IPC communication issues, and performance bottlenecks.
• Support integration and debugging of complex SoC subsystems, including audio, display, GPU, and associated device drivers across Android, QNX, and hypervisor environments.
• Collaborate with semiconductor partners, OS vendors, and cross‑functional teams to drive root‑cause analysis and platform stabilization.
• Provide technical leadership in system architecture, debugging, performance optimization, and production readiness.

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• A minimum of 8 years of experience in embedded software development, including automotive SoC platform software and OS integration.
• Deep hands‑on expertise in Android platform internals, including Android HAL, boot process, native services, and system initialization.
• Strong experience with QNX, Embedded Linux, and hypervisor‑based multi‑OS environments.
• Strong proficiency in C/C++, ARM‑based SoC architectures, and low‑level embedded programming.
• Hands‑on experience with SoC power management, suspend/resume, wake‑up sequences, and power‑state transitions.
• Experience developing and debugging IPC mechanisms, shared memory communication, and inter‑VM communication.
• Proven experience with BSP development, device drivers, and hardware‑software integration.
• Demonstrated ability to debug complex system‑level issues across multiple operating systems and virtualization layers.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience with Qualcomm automotive SoCs, particularly high‑performance computing platforms for ADAS, Digital Cockpit, Instrument Cluster, and Infotainment.
• Deep understanding of Android architecture, including AOSP, Android HAL (AIDL/HIDL), Binder IPC, init, Zygote, and system services.
• Experience with QNX Hypervisor, Android guest VMs, VirtIO, shared memory, and inter‑VM communication frameworks.
