Role Responsibilities:

Requirements Analysis and Decomposition:

Analyze and decompose system-level requirements into clear, actionable software tasks. Collaborate closely with system engineers to ensure alignment on ADAS feature requirements and system design integrity.

• SW integration:
• Develop and maintain integration pipeline for controls ADAS software to ensure automation of development and build pipelines.

Software Design and Architecture:

• Design robust, scalable software architectures for ADAS feature integration that meet functional, safety, and performance standards.

State Machine Implementation:

• Design and implement detailed state machine models for various ADAS features (active safety, driving, and parking). Validate correct logic through unit testing, SIL/HIL testing, and in-vehicle evaluation.
• Cross-functional Collaboration:
• Partner with cross-functional teams including systems, validation, and controls to ensure seamless integration of ADAS features across the vehicle platform.
• Continuous Improvement:
• Identify opportunities to optimize development workflows and improve software robustness, efficiency, and maintainability.

Documentation and Reporting:

Maintain thorough documentation of software design, requirements traceability, unit test cases, and validation outcomes.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field

• 6+ years of experience in software development and feature integration

• Full-cycle development experience with ADAS or autonomous driving systems—from requirements to production deployment

• Strong skills in C/C++ and modeling environments such as MATLAB/Simulink

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and automated test frameworks

• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills; comfortable working across embedded systems and real-time applications

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a fast-moving, collaborative environment

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master’s degree with 6+ years experience, or Ph.D. with 3+ years experience

• Hands-on experience with embedded platforms such as NVIDIA Xavier/Orin and Aurix; strong debugging and diagnostic skills across multicore architectures

• Strong understanding of communication protocols (Ethernet) and tools like Vector CANape/CANoe

• Practical experience testing ADAS/AD features in both simulation and real-vehicle environments

• Deep knowledge in one or more areas of ADAS systems such as behavior planning, motion planning, or vehicle control

• Experience with safety-critical systems and standards (e.g., ISO 26262, AUTOSAR)
