• Follow ADAS software coding standards, meet MISRA guidelines, follow other best practices.
• Implement ROS support for middleware.
• Support flow of information through configuration and implementation of IPC infrastructure.
• Design and develop software for a System on Chip (SoC) solution consisting of multiple operating environments (POSIX, RTOS, bare metal) and processing cores (MPU, MCU, DSP) interfacing with devices through common peripheral buses (SPI, I2C, CAN, PCIe, MIPI CSI, SERDES, Ethernet, UART).
• Design and develop Free RTOS device drivers utilizing C.
• Design and develop Classic AUTOSAR Services and Complex Device Drivers (CDD) with C.
• Debug HW-SW interfacing issues for root-cause identification utilizing common tools and methods (JTAG, oscilloscope, logic analyzer).
• Work with a cross-functional team, developing and capturing requirements for customer interfacing features and technologies.
• Develop Complex Device Drivers (CDD) and configure basic software components.
• Perform code level integration related tasks such as replicating build environments, source code debugging and continuously improving and streamlining deployment.
• Develop AUTOSAR software components and generate ARXML files.
• Translate requirements into control system designs to achieve program targets.
• Design and validate control algorithms to meet functional, regulatory, safety requirements, and functional safety (ISO 26262) requirements.
• Develop and apply software validation test methods, tools, and processes to ensure system functionality and robustness.
• Develop system plant modules and HIL/SIL/MIL validation infrastructure to support vehicle program plans and quality objectives.
• Troubleshoot vehicle system functional and diagnostic issues; determine and validate corrective actions and preventative measures.
• Lead control system project planning and program management to meet functional, quality, and timing objectives.
