[EJV] Senior Telematics Software Engineer — Embedded Android
Ho Chi Minh City - Vietnam
Job Summary
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Telematics Software Engineer with strong embedded Android experience to drive the migration of our Telematics Control Unit (TCU) software framework from Embedded Linux to Android (AOSP / Android Automotive) across both Commercial Vehicle / Off-Highway and Passenger Car programs. This is a foundational platform migration not a feature port: you will re-architect vehicle-network interfaces connectivity diagnostics and OTA mechanisms to run natively within the Android framework HALs system services SELinux policy while preserving the functional behavior performance and cybersecurity posture already proven on the current Linux platform. You will own the technical plan end-to-end and work directly with platform cloud and OEM customer teams to sequence it without disrupting shipping programs.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the technical strategy and execution plan for porting the existing embedded Linux telematics framework to Android (AOSP / Android Automotive) including a gap analysis of what changes at the HAL native service and application layers.
- Re-architect vehicle-network interfaces (CAN / CAN-FD J1939 ISOBUS UDS DoIP) as Vehicle HAL (VHAL) extensions or native AIDL/HIDL services preserving existing signal processing and diagnostics behavior.
- Port connectivity and cloud communication 4G/5G modem integration via the RIL/Telephony framework GNSS MQTT/HTTPS telemetry to Android system services.
- Migrate OTA (FOTA/SOTA) update mechanisms remote diagnostics and fleet-management data services to Androids update framework (A/B seamless updates or equivalent) maintaining feature parity with the current implementation.
- Adapt regulatory and safety-related features (eCall / ERA-GLONASS tachograph and driver-data interfaces emissions/usage reporting) to run correctly within Androids process and permission model.
- Define and enforce SELinux policies Android permission boundaries and secure/verified-boot equivalents to preserve or improve the platforms cybersecurity posture (ISO/SAE 21434 UNECE R155/R156) through the migration.
- Build and maintain the Android build system (AOSP repo/manifest device tree BSP integration) for the target TCU hardware.
- Define a test strategy that validates functional and performance parity between the Linux and Android implementations before cutover regression suite bench testing and vehicle-level validation.
- Collaborate with platform/BSP cloud/backend and OEM customer teams to sequence the migration against shipping programs; define a phased or parallel-run rollout plan.
- Document architecture decisions and migration learnings and mentor engineers ramping up on embedded Android.
Qualifications :
Required Qualifications
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science Electrical/Electronics Engineering or a related field.
- 7 years of embedded software development in automotive telematics or IoT with strong C/C (C14 or later) and Java/Kotlin for Android-layer work.
- Direct hands-on experience with embedded Android / AOSP: HAL development (VHAL or custom HALs) AIDL/HIDL system services SELinux policy and the Android build system (Soong/Make repo/manifest).
- Experience with cellular connectivity (LTE/5G modems RIL integration on Android) GNSS and cloud protocols (MQTT TLS REST).
- Experience with Android OTA update mechanisms (A/B seamless updates or equivalent) and secure boot / verified boot concepts.
- Proven experience carrying a non-trivial embedded system through a platform/OS migration able to speak concretely to gap analysis phased cutover and regression risk.
- Proficiency with automotive tooling: Vector CANoe/CANalyzer bus analyzers debuggers (JTAG/Lauterbach) Git CI/CD.
- Solid experience with Embedded Linux (Yocto/Buildroot) telematics platforms you need to understand what youre migrating from as well as to.
- Solid knowledge of vehicle networks and protocols: CAN / CAN-FD J1939 UDS DoIP; experience with at least one of ISOBUS FMS or Automotive Ethernet / SOME-IP.
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior production experience specifically with Android Automotive OS (AAOS) and its Vehicle HAL.
- AUTOSAR Classic or Adaptive experience alongside Android.
- Knowledge of ISO/SAE 21434 UNECE R155/R156 (cybersecurity) and ISO 26262 (functional safety) as applied to an Android-based platform.
- Experience with eCall / ERA-GLONASS digital tachograph (EU 165/2014) or emissions telematics (e.g. OBD-over-telematics China GB17691).
- Familiarity with Automotive SPICE or comparable structured development processes.
- Experience working with global OEM customers and multi-site development teams.
