Job Description

The Ethernet Tech Lead must be able to define communication architecture at both the system and software levels, using SOME/IP as well as other communication technologies such as CAN-over-Ethernet (PSOME/IP, raw PDUs, etc.), DDS, MQTT, and related protocols.

The role requires strong embedded-systems knowledge to understand how these services can be optimized for network throughput and for the ECUs that consume them.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and support the design, analysis, development and integration of SOME/IP as well as other communication technologies such as CAN-over-Ethernet (PSOME/IP, raw PDUs, etc.), DDS, MQTT, and related protocols
• Collaborate with OS, hypervisor, and middleware teams to enable robust inter-domain communication
• Optimize communication architecture for latency, throughput, resource usage, and determinism in real-time and virtualized environments (e.g., QNX, Linux, Android GVM)
• Debug and troubleshoot ethernet communication related issues across hardware and software layers using tools like JTAG, tracing frameworks, and logic analyzers
• Implement safety- and security-aware features impacted by ethernet based communications aligned with ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434
• Provide technical guidance to specialists (and/or technical references) in their field of expertise
• Transfers knowledge internally via trainings and expertise webinars

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• A minimum of 10 years of experience in embedded software development, with a focus on SoC platforms or communication frameworks
• Experience in designing networks for distributed embedded systems
• Experience in system design and architecture; experience in SW architecture
• Able to design, write, review, debug and guide SW development
• Strong experience in analyzing ethernet data trace logs
• Strong background in working with multiple ethernet protocols such as SOME/IP, CAN-over-ethernet ( PSOME/IP, raw PDUs), DDS, MQTT, etc.
• Ability to effectively present to multi-discipline and multicultural audiences in English
• Strong proficiency in Advanced C and C++ (14/17+), with a solid understanding of multicore and embedded systems
• Familiarity with QNX, Linux, or RTOS environments
• Familiarity with network hardware such as Ethernet switches and associated software for such HW peripherals
• Experience in board bring-up, BSPs, or driver integration for SoCs is preferred
• Understanding of performance optimization and system profiling techniques
• Strong analytical, debugging, and documentation skills

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• Experience with virtualization and domain communication in hypervisor-based systems (e.g., QNX Hypervisor, Android GVM)
• Knowledge of secure boot, trusted execution environments, and memory protection
• Familiarity with Yocto, Device Trees, and system configuration for embedded Linux
• Understanding of functional safety and cybersecurity standards (ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434)
• Proficiency in scripting (Python, Shell) for automation and validation
• Experience with CAN and LIN transceivers, and associated software for such HW peripherals
• Exposure to automotive communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, LIN)
