Position Summary:
We are seeking a Sr. Staff SoC BSW Engineer to lead platform stability, performance optimization, and boot KPI improvements across QNX, Linux, and Android-based automotive SoC platforms.
This role requires deep expertise in OS/BSP integration, system-level debugging, and resolving complex showstopper and critical issues to ensure high-performance, stable, and production-ready platforms. You will be part of the Base Software (BSW) Engineering team at Stellantis, supporting Autonomous Driving, Infotainment, and Connected Vehicle Systems.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead boot-time KPI optimization across QNX, Linux, and Android platforms, identifying bottlenecks in bootloader, OS, driver, and service initialization.
- Drive platform stability and performance improvements, focusing on CPU utilization, memory management, latency, and system responsiveness.
- Lead investigation and resolution of showstopper and critical issues, including OS crashes, kernel panics, system hangs, and boot failures.
- Perform complex system-level debugging across OS, hypervisor, BSP, device drivers, and hardware interfaces.
- Collaborate with semiconductor partners and OS vendors to drive root-cause analysis and timely resolution of critical platform issues.
- Contribute to BSP integration, SoC bring-up, and OS/hypervisor optimization across multicore automotive platforms.
- Develop performance profiling, diagnostic tools, and automation frameworks for KPI monitoring and regression prevention.
- Drive platform maturity, software release stability, and production readiness through continuous performance and reliability improvements.
- Provide technical leadership, architecture reviews, and mentoring on OS performance, stability, and system-level debugging.
- Collaborate with cybersecurity and functional safety teams to ensure relevant platform requirements are met.
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- A minimum of 8 years of experience in embedded software development, OS/BSP integration, and system-level debugging.
- Deep expertise in QNX, Embedded Linux, and/or Android platforms.
- Strong C/C++ programming skills and understanding of OS internals, scheduling, memory management, and IPC.
- Proven experience in boot-time optimization, performance profiling, and resolving complex platform stability issues.
- Hands-on experience with BSP development, device drivers, and SoC bring-up.
- Strong debugging skills using JTAG, kernel traces, crash dumps, and system profiling tools.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- Experience with Qualcomm automotive SoCs, QNX Hypervisor, and Android virtualization.
- Experience with QNX System Profiler, Linux perf/ftrace, Android Perfetto, or equivalent profiling tools.
- Demonstrated success in improving boot KPIs, CPU utilization, memory efficiency, and system stability.
- Experience resolving critical cross-functional issues involving silicon vendors, OS suppliers, and software integration teams.
- Proficiency in Python, Shell scripting, and automated performance/stability testing.
- Familiarity with automotive functional safety, cybersecurity fundamentals, and ASPICE processes.
