Objective of the Job

We are seeking a highly skilled Car Computer Architect to lead the design, development, and integration of car computer into SOA EEA, ensuring seamless integrate cross domain functions especially Infotainment and ADAS into one board. The role aims to drive innovation in automotive electronic systems, enhance system scalability, flexibility, and functional safety, while supporting the transition to software-defined vehicles. The role will bridge hardware-software co-design for Car Computer enabling efficient communication between vehicle domains, sensors, and actuators.

Task Description

Lead the architecture design and development of automotive Car Computer controllers, including System Block Diagram, component selection (e.g., MCUs, power management ICs, communication transceivers), service interface standardization, service decomposition, and real-time data exchange mechanisms (e.g., Ethernet/SOME/IP, CAN FD) to enable interoperability with domain controllers (ADAS, infotainment, chassis, etc.) and validation to meet functional safety (ISO 26262) and performance requirements.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (software, systems engineering, validation) to develop embedded software for Car Computer controllers, including low-level drivers, communication stacks, and diagnostic functions, ensuring compliance with AUTOSAR standards.

Translate customer and market requirements into technical specifications for Car Computer controllers and SOA interfaces, supporting the definition of EEA roadmaps and future platform scalability.

Evaluate emerging technologies (e.g., high-speed Ethernet, AI-driven diagnostics, secure communication protocols) for potential integration into car computer architectures and SOA-based EEA, providing technical recommendations.

Ensure compliance with industry standards (ISO 26262, AUTOSAR, IEEE) and internal design guidelines throughout the development lifecycle.

Document design decisions, test plans, and technical reports, and present updates to stakeholders (R&D, product management, senior leadership) to align on development milestones.

• Bachelor’s degree or above in Electronics, Automation, Vehicle Engineering, or related fields

• Minimum of 7 years’ experience in automotive EEA or related areas. 

• Familiarity with mainstream OEM SOA architectures, distributed/domain/zone controller solutions. 

• Proficient in automotive electronics hardware and software development processes and standards. 

• Strong project management, cross-departmental communication, and resource integration skills. 

• Proficiency in English or German as a working language is preferred. 

• PMP or other project management certifications are a plus.
