About the Role
We are looking for a Junior Telematics Software Engineer to join the team driving the migration of our Telematics Control Unit (TCU) software framework from Embedded Linux to Android (AOSP / Android Automotive). Working under the guidance of our senior engineers, you will help build, test, and validate individual pieces of the new Android-based platform — vehicle-network interfaces, connectivity services, and OTA mechanisms — while learning embedded Android development on a real, shipping-bound migration. This is a strong entry point into embedded Android for someone with a solid C/C++ or Linux foundation who wants to grow into platform-level automotive software work.
Key Responsibilities
- Implement and unit-test defined pieces of the Linux-to-Android migration under the direction of senior engineers — HAL glue code, native services, or application-layer components.
- Support porting of vehicle-network interfaces (CAN / CAN-FD, UDS, DoIP) to Vehicle HAL (VHAL) extensions or AIDL/HIDL services, following the architecture the senior engineer defines.
- Help build and maintain the Android build system (AOSP repo/manifest, device tree) for the target TCU hardware, and keep local build/test environments working.
- Run and extend the regression test suite comparing Linux and Android implementations; log and help triage discrepancies.
- Reproduce and debug issues found during bench or vehicle-level testing, and document root cause and fix.
- Assist with basic SELinux policy changes and Android permission configuration under review from senior engineers.
- Keep clear records of what was ported, tested, and verified, to support the team's cutover and audit trail.
- Learn the existing embedded Linux telematics stack well enough to explain what a given piece of functionality needs to preserve when ported.
