We are building a specialized engineering team to support the long-term maintenance and operational stability of the vehicle-network gateway that manages communication between the Vehicle Computation Unit and mechatronic ECUs across Automotive Ethernet, CAN/CAN-FD, and LIN networks. The assignment focuses on product maintenance, issue investigation, verification, release support, and continuous improvement rather than major new-feature development.
Responsibilities
- - Lead technical investigations of embedded software, diagnostic, and vehicle-communication issues related to VIU.
- Focus on systematic fault isolation and resolution instead of new feature development.
- Perform technical triage and fault tracing for embedded software and communication problems.
- Reproduce issues and analyze logs and diagnostic data.
- Develop technical hypotheses and conduct root-cause analyses.
- Coordinate corrective actions with OEM stakeholders and Tier-1 engineering teams.
- Support software maintenance corrections, technical reviews, and release readiness.
- Verify defect resolutions and prevent regressions.
- Document reusable troubleshooting knowledge and investigation methodologies.
SKILLS
