YOUR ROLE

This role focuses on hands‑on integration, debugging, optimization, and validation of ADAS algorithms on real embedded hardware with minimal dependency on algorithm developers.

We are seeking a senior ADAS Algorithm Integration Engineer (Individual Contributor) with strong understanding of ADAS perception and planning pipelines and deep hands‑on experience integrating ADAS algorithms into production automotive ECUs.

In your daily job you will:

• Integrate perception, fusion, localization, and planning algorithms into automotive ADAS platforms.
• Independently analyze algorithm data flows, state machines, and outputs to debug functional and performance issues.
• Redesign memory layouts, buffers, stack/heap usage, and partitioning to fit PoC algorithms into production ECUs.
• Analyze and optimize RAM/ROM usage, cache behavior, memory bandwidth, and DMA strategies.
• Investigate timing overruns, jitter, latency, and execution bottlenecks.
• Optimize scheduling, task priorities, and IPC using AUTOSAR OS or QNX.
• Define embedded constraints for algorithms including CPU budgets, memory limits, execution deadlines, and interface contracts.
• Work closely with base software teams on AUTOSAR Classic/Adaptive, QNX, BSPs, and middleware.
• Perform deep debugging using Trace32, Vector CANoe/CANalyzer, GDB, and profiling tools. Familiarity with QNX Momentics is a plus, but not a required skill.
