Software Engineer

Job Title: Autosar Engineer

Location: Michigan

Duration: Long Term

Job Description

Key Responsibilities

• Lead configuration, integration, and bring‑up of the AUTOSAR architecture (MCAL, BSW, RTE) for an ADP software‑only release.
• Work closely with the SW Architect to interpret high-level architecture and translate it into AUTOSAR configurations and component definitions.
• Collaborate with the Embedded SW Engineer to ensure internally developed building‑block modules integrate cleanly into the AUTOSAR environment.
• Configure BSW modules including communication stack (CAN), diagnostics, memory services, watchdog, OS, and ECU state management.
• Maintain and manage AUTOSAR toolchains (Vector DaVinci or OEM‑specified tools).
• Perform RTE generation and ensure proper interface alignment for application components.
• Support early-stage debugging, integration, and issue resolution across the AUTOSAR stack.
• Collaborate in defining MCAL usage, microcontroller abstraction integration, and hardware service layer behavior (even in software‑only scenarios).
• Contribute to simulation or virtual integration environments to validate early AUTOSAR configurations.
• Support power mode and diagnostic (UDS) integration from an AUTOSAR standpoint.
• Conduct static analysis, configuration validation, and support verification/QA activities.
• Ensure adherence to ASPICE and provide AUTOSAR‑related inputs to functional safety activities (ISO 26262).
• Support development of SENT (SAE J2716) communication interface / device driver and AUTOSAR configuration for bench prototype hardware.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 10+ years of experience in automotive embedded software development.
• Significant hands‑on experience with AUTOSAR Classic Platform, including:
• MCAL, BSW, ECU Abstraction
• OS configuration
• RTE generation
• Communication stack (CAN/LIN)
• Diagnostics stack (UDS, DCM, DEM), power management, and memory services.
• Strong expertise with Vector DaVinci or similar AUTOSAR toolchains.
• Experience integrating application software into an AUTOSAR system and resolving interface, RTE, and configuration alignment issues.
• Strong embedded C background for debugging AUTOSAR-related implementation issues.
• Familiarity with TriCore, S32, Renesas, or similar microcontrollers.
• Hands‑on experience with CANalyzer/CANoe for communication analysis and validation.
• Experience with static analysis tools, configuration validation, and unit testing.
• Understanding of ASPICE processes and basic functional safety concepts (ISO 26262).

Soft Skills

• Strong communication skills, able to convey AUTOSAR concepts to cross-functional engineers.
• Collaborative mindset—comfortable working closely with architects and building-block developers.
• Highly organized, self-driven, and able to guide early-phase technical direction.
• Able to work effectively in a global, cross-cultural engineering environment.

Optional / Preferred Skills

• Experience with occupant sensing, airbag systems, or other safety-critical automotive domains.
• Prior involvement in ADP/advanced development, platform bring-up, or early-phase architectural exploration.
• Familiarity with functional safety work products, architecture safety concepts, or safety analysis techniques (FMEA/FMDA).
