  • Implement and optimize inter-process communication (IPC) mechanisms and service interfaces.
  • Work closely with OS, platform, BSP, and application teams to ensure seamless software integration.
  • Analyze and resolve software performance, stability, memory, and communication issues.
  • Support middleware deployment and validation on QNX-based target hardware, virtual platforms, and development environments.
  • Develop build, deployment, test, and validation automation using CMake, Python, and Shell scripting.
  • Perform debugging, root cause analysis, and issue resolution across middleware and application layers.
  • Support software quality activities including unit testing, integration testing, static analysis, and code reviews.
  • Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, software integration, and software release activities.
  • Provide technical leadership for middleware architecture, design, development, and integration activities across automotive HPC platforms.
  • Mentor and guide engineers, lead architecture, design, and code reviews, and drive technical decision-making across teams.
  • Establish and promote software engineering best practices to ensure scalable, reliable, maintainable, and high-performance platform solutions.
  • Participate in Agile development processes and ASPICE-compliant software lifecycle activities.
Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics & Communication Engineering, or a related field.
  • Minimum 8 years of experience in Embedded Software Development.
  • Strong understanding of Adaptive AUTOSAR architecture.
  • Knowledge of service-oriented communication and SOME/IP.
  • Hands-on experience with QNX Neutrino RTOS.
  • Strong understanding of microkernel architecture, processes, threads, scheduling, synchronization, and memory management.
  • Proficiency in Modern C++ (C++11/14/17 or later).
  • Experience developing middleware services, daemons, and platform software components.
  • Strong knowledge of inter-process communication (IPC), serialization, and service abstraction layers.
  • Experience working with automotive SoCs and High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Linux-based development environments.
  • Knowledge of automotive communication protocols including CAN, Ethernet, SOME/IP, TCP/IP, UDP, and IPv4/IPv6.
