Embedded Software Engineer - ECU Intergration

We’re searching for an Embedded Software Engineer to join our team to spearhead the development of our virtual ECU testing framework. This role focuses on establishing a robust, automated software integration testing framework for the ARM based microcontrollers. In this role, you will ● Design, build, and maintain an automated testing framework for a virtual Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in a simulated environment. ● Configure and instantiate virtual ECU environments using Corellium and/or qEmu to simulate the microcontroller. ● Integrate virtual models of internal and external MCU peripherals (e.g., Ethernet, CAN, SPI, I2C, GPIO) to accurately reflect real hardware behavior. ● Develop automated test cases and execute V&V plans for safety critical ECUs. ● Deploy and manage the entire testing environment within Aurora's AWS environment, including spinning up EC2 instances and setting up tools for automatic test execution. ● Integrate the virtual test framework into Aurora’s CI/CD pipeline to enable daily test reports and continuous validation. ● Work closely with hardware and firmware engineers to ensure the virtual environment accurately models the real ECU. Required Qualifications ● Expert-level knowledge of C or C++ programming. ● Experience with 32-bit microcontrollers, particularly ARM Cortex-M7 and automotive processors like the NXP S32K/G series. ● Strong knowledge of communication protocols from low level (SPI, I2C, CAN, UART) to high level (TCP/UDP). ● Experience with hardware emulation or simulation platforms such as Corellium or qEmu. ● Proficiency in a scripting language like Python for test automation and interfacing with SDKs. ● Basic knowledge of electrical engineering fundamentals to support low-level debugging. ● Bachelor's or higher degree in EE, CS, CE, or equivalent experience. Desirable knowledge ● Experience with cloud environments, particularly AWS. ● Experience integrating automation frameworks into CI/CD pipelines. ● Familiarity with RTOS environments, such as FreeRTOS and Bazel build environment. ● Familiarity with electronics test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes) and hardware debugging interfaces like JTAG.
