Job Summary
You will be responsible for endtoend validation of Security and Functional Safety (FuSa) features for Renesas RCar automotive SoCs. The role focuses on validating secure boot cryptographic services safety mechanisms and systemlevel robustness across Linux QNX Android and RTOS environments on heterogeneous multicore SoCs.
You will work closely with BSP firmware hardware and safety/security architecture teams to ensure productionready auditcompliant platforms for nextgeneration IVI ADAS and fusion products.
Relevant working experience
- Strong systemlevel understanding of secure boot and firmware architecture QM vs safety domain partitioning and multicore heterogeneous SoC behaviour
- Handson experience in Security and Functional Safety (FuSa) validation for automotive SoCs
- Strong understanding of secure boot cryptography and ISO26262 safety concepts
- Validation of X5H secure boot chain (BootROM IPL TFA OPTEE OS)
Validation of RSIPM / RSIPE (HSM) including key provisioning lifecycle states and hardware crypto - Validation of OPTEE and Trusted Applications including secure storage (RPMB on UFS/eMMC)
- Execution of negative robustness and tamper testing (authentication failures corrupted images)
- Validation of secure firmware loading across Acore Rcore SCP and Safety Island
- Validation of ISO26262 safety mechanisms targeting ASILB / ASILD
Validation of startup tests (LBIST memory tests watchdogs) ECC and E2E protection - Safety Island boot and runtime validation
- Fault injection and failuremode testing with analysis of fault detection and reaction paths
- Systemlevel validation on Linux (Yocto BSP) QNX Hypervisor and RTOS / SafeRTOS / FreeRTOS
- System integration validation across heterogeneous multicore SoCs ensuring correct partitioning between QM and safety domains
- Debugging and analysis of boot failures safety events and security violations using logs and lowlevel traces
- Development and execution of systemlevel validation plans test cases automation and reports
- Contribution to security and safety validation evidence for internal reviews and customer audits
- Handson experience with Git/Gerrit Yocto build systems JTAG and systemlevel debugging tools and security and functional safety validation tooling such as fault injection and negative testing
