Lead Base Software SoC Engineer – Vehicle Integration & Debugging Join to apply for the Lead Base Software SoC Engineer – Vehicle Integration & Debugging role at Stellantis We are seeking a Lead Base Software Systems Engineer to support VHIL labs, production, and pre‑production plant setups. This role requires broad systems expertise in embedded software platforms and infotainment subsystems (Displays, Touch Interfaces, Cameras, Audio, Connectivity) with hands‑on debugging across bootloaders, operating systems (QNX, Linux, Android) and hypervisors, middleware stacks, diagnostics frameworks, HPC SoC platforms, flashing tools and FOTA processes. The engineer will act as a first responder in production environments, driving rapid issue resolution and ensuring system readiness for vehicle integration. Key Responsibilities Debug and triage embedded software issues in plant, VHIL, and production setups. Travel as required to production plants and test facilities to support on‑site issue resolution. Support system bring‑up and troubleshooting of bootloaders, OS, hypervisors, middleware stacks and diagnostics. Debug and validate infotainment peripherals and connectivity subsystems, including: Displays – initialization, bring‑up, video pipelines, GPU/display controllers. Touch Interfaces – driver bring‑up, calibration, responsiveness and UI integration. Cameras – ISP pipeline, MIPI interfaces, synchronization and diagnostics. Audio – HAL customization, DSP integration, routing, amplifiers and codecs. BT/WiFi – connectivity stacks, pairing, diagnostics and integration. Radio Tuners – AM/FM, DAB, SXM, tuner HAL and middleware integration. USB and automotive Ethernet subsystems. Support diagnostic flashing processes (UDS‑based flashing, DoIP‑based flashing, plant reprogramming workflows). Collaborate with FOTA teams to debug firmware‑over‑the‑air update mechanisms, including campaign execution, partial updates and rollback handling. Develop and maintain tools/scripts for log capture, automated debugging and flashing workflows. Ensure comprehensive diagnostic coverage (UDS, DoIP, SOME/IP, OBD‑II) and plant readiness. Collaborate with base SW, integration, cockpit infotainment, connectivity and plant teams for root‑cause analysis and resolution. Document and share root causes, workarounds and lessons learned to drive continuous improvement. Profil Bachelor's/Master's in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Embedded Systems. 5+ years of experience in embedded software debugging. Strong experience in: Bootloaders (U‑Boot, ABL or similar) Operating systems (QNX, Linux, Android) Hypervisors (QNX HV or similar) Debugging tools (JTAG, Lauterbach, GDB, trace/monitoring tools) Hands‑on experience with HPC peripherals and subsystems: Display frameworks and GPU pipelines Touch interfaces (drivers, calibration, UI integration) Camera stacks Audio frameworks BT/WiFi connectivity Radio tuners USB and automotive Ethernet Familiarity with diagnostic protocols and update mechanisms: UDS, DoIP, SOME/IP, OBD‑II, flashing workflows, FOTA update processes. Experience with VHIL/HIL test environments. Willingness and ability to travel to production plants, test facilities or test sites (typically 10–20%) to provide on‑site debugging and support. Preferred Skills Knowledge of HPC‑class SoCs from Qualcomm SA8xxx/SA7xxx, NVIDIA, Intel, Renesas, NXP. Familiarity with Adaptive AUTOSAR and ASPICE‑compliant workflows. Exposure to production plant processes and EOL (End‑of‑Line) testing.
