Job Description
We are seeking a Lead Platform System Debug Engineer to support software issue investigation, root cause analysis, validation and triage activities, including High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Cabin Zone Control Unit (Cabin ZCU) platforms.
The role sits within a cross-functional technical debugging team that operates inside a wider ecosystem of vehicle-domain teams. Acting as a rapid-response engineer, the individual moves quickly across domains and validation platforms — bench, HIL/Vehicle-in-Loop (ViL), pre-production and production vehicles — to understand issues, perform initial root cause analysis (RCA) and drive triage, before handing problems to the appropriate specialist teams for detailed investigation.
This is primarily a debugging, troubleshooting role rather than a feature-development position. It requires a strong understanding of HPC systems, Base Software (BSW), software architecture, vehicle E&E; architecture, diagnostics, software flashing and update processes.
Key Responsibilities
• Reproduce and debug software issues raised during bench,
HIL/ViL, vehicle and program-validation activities; perform initial root cause analysis and triage.
• Integrate software components delivered by internal teams and external vendors; run sanity and smoke tests to confirm builds are stable.
• Reflash builds, execute updates and support FOTA investigations; make small, targeted configuration changes to test hypotheses and verify fixes.
• Determine issue ownership with specialist and domain teams, and drive agreement on corrective actions and release paths.
• Document root causes, workarounds and next steps; report findings to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Maintain and adapt validation setups, including minor bench wiring or hardware changes needed to isolate an issue.
Required Skills & Experience
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Embedded Systems, Automotive Engineering o
