Ethernet Tech Lead

The Ethernet Tech Lead must be able to define communication architecture at both the system and software levels, using SOME/IP as well as other communication technologies such as CAN-over-Ethernet (PSOME/IP, raw PDUs, etc.), DDS, MQTT, and related protocols.The role requires strong embedded-systems knowledge to understand how these services can be optimized for network throughput and for the ECUs that consume them.Key Responsibilities:Lead and support the design, analysis, development and integration of SOME/IP as well as other communication technologies such as CAN-over-Ethernet (PSOME/IP, raw PDUs, etc.), DDS, MQTT, and related protocolsCollaborate with OS, hypervisor, and middleware teams to enable robust inter-domain communication Optimize communication architecture for latency, throughput, resource usage, and determinism in real-time and virtualized environments (e.g., QNX, Linux, Android GVM)Debug and troubleshoot ethernet communication related issues across hardware and software layers using tools like JTAG, tracing frameworks, and logic analyzers Implement safety- and security-aware features impacted by ethernet based communications aligned with ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 Provide technical guidance to specialists (and/or technical references) in their field of expertiseTransfers knowledge internally via trainings and expertise webinarsBasic Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field A minimum of 10 years of experience in embedded software development, with a focus on SoC platforms or communication frameworks Experience in designing networks for distributed embedded systemsExperience in system design and architecture; experience in SW architectureAble to design, write, review, debug and guide SW developmentStrong experience in analyzing ethernet data trace logsStrong background in working with multiple ethernet protocols such as SOME/IP, CAN-over-ethernet ( PSOME/IP, raw PDUs), DDS, MQTT, etc.Ability to effectively present to multi-discipline and multicultural audiences in EnglishStrong proficiency in Advanced C and C++ (14/17+), with a solid understanding of multicore and embedded systems Familiarity with QNX, Linux, or RTOS environmentsFamiliarity with network hardware such as Ethernet switches and associated software for such HW peripheralsExperience in board bring-up, BSPs, or driver integration for SoCs is preferredUnderstanding of performance optimization and system profiling techniques Strong analytical, debugging, and documentation skillsPreferred Qualifications: Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field Experience with virtualization and domain communication in hypervisor-based systems (e.g., QNX Hypervisor, Android GVM) Knowledge of secure boot, trusted execution environments, and memory protection Familiarity with Yocto, Device Trees, and system configuration for embedded Linux Understanding of functional safety and cybersecurity standards (ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434) Proficiency in scripting (Python, Shell) for automation and validation Experience with CAN and LIN transceivers, and associated software for such HW peripheralsExposure to automotive communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, LIN)Brand: FCA GroupJob ID: 2020738Employment Type: Full-timeJob Area: SoftwarePosted Date: 10/08/2026
