Embedded SWE, AD/ADAS Architecture Design

=========================================================================

The Software Architecture’s mission is to derive the best software architecture for the customer, taking into account various AD/ADAS system requirements, preconditions, specifications, and constraints. We cover two types of architecture: an abstract logical architecture that provides guidelines for some AD/ADAS functions placement, and a physical architecture that takes hardware performance and constraints into account. The derived software architecture will satisfy the customer's requirements in terms of quality, cost, etc. to the greatest extent.

As a software engineer, you will pursue a variety of architectural design tasks, from acquiring requirements, to building logical structures, and finally to determining functional placement taking into account various physical constraints. You are always learning and finding innovative solutions to build robust systems, and you are used to working with a variety of teams focused on the goal of making the best product for users. You’re passionate about helping to make the best automotive product possible.
