Job description

Description
Principal Engineer - Embedded Systems & Security
We are seeking an experienced Principal Engineer - Embedded Systems & Security to join our automotive engineering organization. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in both cloud-based microservices architectures and embedded automotive systems, with a strong understanding of functional safety (ISO 26262) and an emphasis on cybersecurity (ISO 21434) standards.
This role bridges vehicle-side embedded control systems with cloud and edge computing services, helping define and implement next-generation Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) architectures.
The ideal candidate combines strong technical expertise with experience in software development environments, particularly within the automotive sector, and has a solid understanding of A-SPICE and Agile methodologies.
  • Be part of an innovative team shaping the next generation of Software-Defined Vehicles.
  • Work across the full vehicle software stack-from embedded ECUs to cloud infrastructure.
  • Collaborate with industry-leading experts in automotive architecture, AI/ML, and cloud systems.

Responsibilities (include, but are not limited to):
  • Ensure architectural alignment with ISO 21434 cybersecurity principles
  • Lead cybersecurity initiatives, own the cybersecurity management system
  • Define and evolve the end-to-end software architecture across vehicle and cloud platforms, covering edge devices, embedded ECUs, zone controllers, and cloud services.
  • Design and guide implementation of microservice-based architectures for data analytics, OTA (Over-the-Air) updates, diagnostics, and connected vehicle features.
  • Collaborate with hardware, systems, and software teams to ensure scalable, modular, and safe system integration.
  • Lead architecture reviews and define software interfaces, service APIs, and communication protocols (e.g., SOME/IP, DDS, MQTT, REST/gRPC).
  • Mentor cross-functional engineering teams on architecture best practices, design patterns, and code quality standards.
  • Evaluate and integrate third-party technologies, frameworks, and toolchains to improve platform capabilities.
  • Support model-based system design, safety analysis, and traceability of requirements to implementation.
  • Other duties, as assigned.

Qualifications:
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
  • 10+ years of experience in software architecture or systems engineering within automotive or embedded domains.

  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, data communication protocols, and service discovery.
  • Hands-on experience designing or validating safety-critical systems under ISO 26262 (ASIL-B or higher).
  • Formal training in ISO 21434 or equivalent cybersecurity frameworks for connected vehicles.
  • Experience with DevOps, container orchestration, and secure software deployment pipelines.
  • Proficiency in multiple programming languages (e.g., C, C++, Python, Java, Rust, or Go).

Preferred Qualifications (In addition to required)
  • 3+ years leading cybersecurity architecture and process practices with adherence to U.N. R155/R156
  • Experience with zonal architectures, service-oriented automotive platforms, or vehicle-cloud synchronization.
  • Familiarity with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud automotive solutions.
  • Understanding of vehicle diagnostics (UDS/DoIP), OTA update frameworks, and data logging/telemetry systems.
  • Knowledge of AUTOSAR Adaptive, ASIL decomposition strategies, and cybersecurity threat modeling.
  • Experience with Simulink, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), or system simulation environments.
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills for cross-domain collaboration.
