Job Summary
- Develop embedded software components for RTOS-based SDKs, including:
- Low-Level Drivers (LLDs), HALs, RTOS abstraction layers, and BSPs
- Example/demo applications to showcase peripheral functionality and performance
- Support post-silicon validation (AVV) by:
- Creating validation test apps that reuse RTOS SDK components
- Bringing up first silicon and validating critical peripherals (ADC, PWM, CAN, LIN, watchdogs, etc.)
- Supporting automation of lab and CI-based test execution
- Collaborate across teams – work closely with architecture, hardware, safety, and tools teams to align software with silicon capabilities and roadmap
- Contribute to reference software and tooling to aid customers in bootstrapping their own designs
- Analyse and debug complex issues using emulators, silicon, and debug tools like OpenOCD, J-Link, or Lauterbach
- Provide feedback into next-gen MCU architecture, based on software validation findings
- Contribute to the wider RISC-V software ecosystem, helping to ensure support for the architecture in various open-source projects
Key Responsibilities
- 3–6 years of hands-on experience in embedded systems software development
- Strong skills in C/C++ programming, with basic familiarity in assembly
- Good understanding of RTOS concepts (task scheduling, ISRs, semaphores, etc.)
- Experience debugging complex multicore systems, experience with debugging tools (OpenOCD, Segger J-Link, Lauterbach)
- Experience porting or developing on FreeRTOS, Zephyr, AUTOSAR OS, or similar platforms
- Familiarity with bare-metal development, memory-mapped IO, and driver development
- Experience in bring-up and debugging on real silicon or FPGA platforms
- Knowledge of automotive interfaces and protocols: CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART
- Practical exposure to test automation, scripting (Python/bash), and version control (git)
Skill Requirements
- Exposure to ASIL-D software development, ISO 26262 process, or safety validation
- Prior involvement in post-silicon AVV or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test setups
- Familiarity with RISC-V architecture, instruction sets, and toolchains
- Experience developing or validating motor control, powertrain, or safety-critical firmware
Knowledge of bootloaders, secure update, or system startup firmware
