Job Description

Purpose of the Role

• This position is required to for design, development and testing of embedded software. It includes design development and testing of embedded base software development. It also requires supporting designing of software architecture.
• Position is critical for development and meeting the timeline of EV powertrain software defined vehicle projects.

Job Responsibility

• Shall be responsible for the design, development, testing and maintenance of the embedded base software. Work closely with middleware architect and SDV architect to design embedded base software architecture for real time core of HPC. Work closely with automotive cyber security and FUSA experts to ensure design and development of a safe and secured base software and architecture for real time core of the HPC. Deliver and maintain a base software that is scalable while providing a working basic real time processing required for time critical applications to run on HPC.
• Shall be responsible for base code and Device driver development in embedded c, unit and integration testing of the C code, debugging and code analysis. Integration, testing and debugging of base code with application software. Shall be responsible for development of real time embedded software.
• Shall support in system Requirement analysis and implement software architecture, that meet the system requirements. Support in controller and architecture selection based on requirements and software architecture feasibility analysis.
• Software architecture design, development and testing. Selection of RTOS, configuration and integration of RTOS, allocation of cores and memory, whether to use hypervisor or not etc. Create scheduler, configure base software testing and debugging.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including software design documents, architecture diagrams, and user manuals.
