Introduction:

We are looking for hands-on embedded software engineers to develop AUTOSAR-compliant MCAL components for next-generation MIPS RISC-V automotive real-time MCUs. You will work across driver development hardware bring-up safety-compliant engineering integration and validation for applications including ADAS powertrain body electronics and domain controllers.

What Youll Do

• Develop and maintain AUTOSAR MCAL drivers for peripherals such as ADC PWM GPT ICU DIO PORT CAN LIN SPI UART WDG MCU FLS and Ethernet.

• Own assigned MCAL modules across requirements analysis design coding configuration unit testing integration and validation.

• Implement software in compliance with MISRA C and AUTOSAR coding guidelines and resolve findings from static-analysis tools.

• Create software design descriptions configuration guidance test specifications traceability and other required engineering work products.

• Bring up and debug MCAL drivers on FPGA and silicon using Lauterbach iSystem or similar embedded debug tools.

• Collaborate with SoC architecture hardware platform software functional safety validation and tools teams on clocks resets interrupts DMA memory maps and peripheral integration.

• Integrate MCAL components with AUTOSAR BSW stacks and configuration environments and support system-level issue resolution.

• Develop automated unit integration and regression tests and contribute to CI-based quality checks.

• Participate in code reviews design reviews defect analysis and continuous improvement of reusable MCAL components.

What You Should Have

• 4-6 years of embedded software development experience including meaningful hands-on AUTOSAR MCAL or low-level driver development.

• Strong embedded C programming skills and practical knowledge of pointers memory-mapped I/O interrupts concurrency and linker or startup concepts.

• Experience developing or integrating MCAL modules and working with AUTOSAR specifications and configuration workflows.

• Good understanding of MCU subsystems including clocks resets interrupt controllers DMA timers watchdogs communication peripherals and memory interfaces.

• Experience with MISRA C static analysis code reviews unit testing and requirements-to-test traceability.

• Working knowledge of ISO 26262 software development practices and safety-oriented engineering deliverables.

• Experience with hardware bring-up and debugging using Lauterbach iSystem J-Link oscilloscopes logic analyzers or similar equipment.

• Experience with Git and scripting in Python or shell for build and test automation.

• Ability to read hardware specifications and translate register-level behavior into reliable production-quality drivers.

Good to Have

• Hands-on use of EB tresos Studio Vector DaVinci Configurator or equivalent AUTOSAR configuration tools.

• Experience with Vector Elektrobit ETAS or another third-party AUTOSAR BSW stack.

• Exposure to tools such as Polyspace QAC Tessy Cantata or equivalent static-analysis and unit-test solutions.

• Knowledge of RISC-V architecture or experience moving MCAL software across MCU architectures.

• Exposure to ASPICE safety audits tool qualification customer delivery or OEM/Tier-1 integration.

• Experience with automotive communication protocols such as CAN LIN Ethernet and SPI.

What Youll Get

• Opportunity to build MCAL software for a new RISC-V automotive MCU platform.

• Direct collaboration with CPU SoC functional safety validation and platform software teams.

• End-to-end ownership from specification and driver implementation through hardware validation and customer enablement.

• A flexible growth path toward MCAL architecture functional safety platform leadership or deep technical specialization.
