The job description

Tech stack. C (MISRA), AUTOSAR Classic, ISO 26262, CAN/CAN FD/Ethernet, Vector tools (CANoe/CANalyzer), UDS diagnostics, EB tresos or Davinci

About the role

You will join an automotive Tier 1 supplier developing body and chassis control modules for major OEMs. The embedded team works inside the AUTOSAR framework under ISO 26262 functional safety, where every requirement is traced and every change is reviewed. This role matters because your software runs in vehicles on public roads: correctness is not a preference, it is a legal and moral obligation, and the team's discipline is what makes that possible.

What you will achieve

Ship AUTOSAR-compliant software components for a body control module through two vehicle program milestones (SOP minus 12 months and SOP) with zero late deliverables, and all work products accepted at each quality gate review
Drive ASIL B(D) work products for your components: hazard analysis inputs, safety requirements, and verification evidence that pass independent assessment without major findings, with assessment reports archived as program evidence
Reduce CAN bus integration issues by authoring and validating DBC files and signal timing, cutting network-related defects by 35% across the program, measured from system integration test through vehicle validation
Build a UDS diagnostics implementation (services 0x22, 0x2E, 0x31, 0x34/0x36/0x37) that passes OEM acceptance testing on first submission
Own module-level integration testing with HIL rigs, achieving 100% requirements coverage on your assigned software components before each gateway review

What you will bring

Must-haves

2-5 years in automotive embedded software with AUTOSAR Classic, including BSW configuration, RTE integration, and SWC development
Strong MISRA C discipline and experience with static analysis tools such as Polyspace or QAC, including deviation justification
Working knowledge of ISO 26262 concepts: ASIL levels, safety plans, verification methods, and confirmation measures
Hands-on CAN/CAN FD experience with Vector CANoe/CANalyzer for simulation, rest-bus simulation, and testing
Familiarity with UDS (ISO 14229) diagnostics and bootloader/flashing workflows used in production and service
Experience with requirements management and traceability in tools such as DOORS or Polarion
Ability to work within ASPICE-style processes without losing engineering momentum or cutting corners on evidence

Nice-to-haves

AUTOSAR Adaptive or SOME/IP exposure from pilot projects or platform evaluations
Cybersecurity awareness for automotive ECUs, including familiarity with ISO/SAE 21434 concepts
Experience with multi-core lockstep MCUs such as AURIX or RH850
