The opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to strengthen our Android & Embedded platform team for automotive. The team builds and maintains platform support across Android (AOSP/AAOS), Embedded Linux, and QNX, enabling multi-screen experiences, layering of 3D content with native applications, and rich multi-touch input. Our day-to-day spans large multithreaded C/C++/C#/Java codebases, deep work in the Android lifecycle and system services, GPU/CPU/IO profiling, and rendering pipelines (OpenGL/Vulkan).

Unity is committed to solving the hardest platform problems, and this role is central to delivering robust, high-performance industry solutions.

You’ll collaborate across Unity, partnering with industry teams who work directly with customers and core R&D teams responsible for cross-platform support, systems architecture, libraries, and runtime optimization. Alongside engine platform work, you’ll help provide embedded support for premium automotive customers, including integrations on Automotive So Cs (e.g., NXP i.MX8, NVIDIA Drive CX), Android system apps, and production HMI and instrument-cluster experiences.

This is a one-year contract position.

• Familiarity with the Android lifecycle, including UI systems and services.

• Solid understanding of AOSP (Android Open Source Project) and/or AAOS (Android Automotive OS).

• Experience working with rendering stacks such as OpenGL or Vulkan.

• Proficiency with platform profiling tools for CPU, GPU, and IO performance analysis.

You might also have

• Previous experience with embedded engineering (e.g. creating HMIs and Instrument clusters)

• Experience with Operating Systems used in Automotive such as AGL and Yocto Linux or AOSP/AAOS and familiarity with the Android lifecycle

• Knowledge of e-Linux and RTOS systems (e.g. QNX, Integrity) as well as Automotive So Cs, such as Qualcomm SA8155, NXP i.MX8 or Nvidia Jetson

Additional information
