【Data & AI】Automotive Software Engineer Project Lead

Job description

Job description: By domain

You will provide engineering support to automakers and Tier 1 suppliers developing next-generation vehicles centered on software. Based on client development challenges and future plans, you will create value through software and advance development processes. Assignments will be matched to your experience and interests.

1. Automotive software development support (AD/ADAS and digital cockpit)

Support automotive software development for AD/ADAS and digital cockpit, covering UI/UX design, control development, model development, and simulation environments. Next-generation vehicle experiences require combining autonomous-driving technology with advanced user interfaces. Example work: develop AD/ADAS control software; design and implement digital-cockpit UI/UX; develop AI and algorithms; build model/simulation environments for verification and evaluation. Depending on your experience, you may lead these projects.

1. Support for software-defined (software-first) transformation

Support software-centered development through designing and introducing processes for agile transformation and building DevOps/CI/CD environments. As vehicle value shifts from hardware to software, the mission is to build a development foundation that brings value to market faster. Example work: design and establish agile development processes; build DevOps and CI/CD pipelines; improve processes to increase development efficiency and quality. Depending on your experience, you may lead these projects.

1. Connected application/platform development and operations

Support applications and cloud platforms that use diverse vehicle-generated data. Work with cloud technologies such as AWS and Azure to build service platforms for connected vehicles. Vehicles are evolving from transportation into IoT devices continuously connected to the cloud. Example work: develop applications that collect and analyze data from in-vehicle devices; design and build platforms on AWS/Azure; support operations and improvement of connected services. Depending on your experience, you may lead these projects.

Why we are hiring

The automotive industry is changing rapidly from transportation toward software-centered devices. Working with our group company Luxoft, we have continued to take on new challenges, including transforming next-generation vehicle development through agile methods and validating advanced technologies for connected vehicles. We are seeking colleagues who will work alongside clients, create the future of mobility, and update conventional automotive development.

Why work in automotive

Engage at the forefront with world-class advanced technology. We support automakers and Tier 1 suppliers around the world, with many global projects that let you contribute across borders to developing, introducing, and operating leading-edge technology. Bring global expertise to Japan’s automotive industry: although Japan’s industry is advancing rapidly, Europe still leads in some advanced areas. We bring the experience and expertise of our global group, including Luxoft, to the Japanese market and help strengthen Japan’s competitiveness in next-generation mobility.

Career paths: Architect, Consultant, Project Leader/Project Manager. Managers will support your development based on your interests and career goals.

Expected organization

Approximately 40 people. The Data & AI Auto business supports digital cockpits, autonomous driving, and connected mobility. Globally, we improve driving experiences for more than 20 major automakers.

Required qualifications

Systems-integration experience as a systems engineer, from requirements definition through operations and maintenance, plus experience in at least one of the following domains:

Automotive software/AD/ADAS/digital cockpit: automotive software development (UML, specifications, design, coding, testing, model-based development, simulation); knowledge of AD/ADAS architecture and control systems (e.g. ACC, AEB); simulation-environment development, including tools for xILS; digital-cockpit systems and architecture such as IVI, meters, HUD; technologies including UI (Qt, Unity, Unreal Engine, Kanzi), OS (Android, iOS, AGL, Arene, QNX, INTEGRITY), middleware (hypervisors, AUTOSAR), and SoCs such as R-Car.

Software-defined/software-first transformation: understanding of vehicle software development processes; business analysis and process-improvement (BPR) experience, including portfolio analysis, workflows, DSM, workshop design/facilitation; agile development tools such as JIRA, Redmine, Burndown; CI/CD setup and operations using Jenkins, GitHub, Terraform, AWS services (CloudFormation, CodeCommit, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, etc.), or Azure DevOps.

Connected apps/platforms: knowledge and development experience for connected-car apps/platforms (specifications, design, coding, testing, simulation); communications including vehicle-to-center links and GIS; infrastructure knowledge (load balancing, autoscaling, serverless/Lambda, Redshift); AWS/Azure cloud experience, including DevOps, containers, IoT, and security.

Preferred

English sufficient to communicate with overseas teams and understand their deliverables. Project-lead experience in software development, including progress, issue, cost, and vendor management.
