Automated Vehicle Marshalling replaces manual vehicle movement with low-speed, Level 4 automation in specific commercial applications. Using an overhead vision system and 5G wireless communication, AVM orchestrates many target vehicles simultaneously, safely interacting with people and equipment. As part of the Advanced Industrial Technology and Platforms (ATP) organization, you will work alongside manufacturing engineering to deliver a paradigm shift in factory efficiency and future customer applications like depot/yard marshalling and automated valet parking.
As an AVM Software Engineer, you will be responsible for the vehicle-side software that serves as the bridge between the factory infrastructure and the vehicle’s motion control systems. You will develop and implement the embedded software that receives wireless trajectory commands from the AVM infrastructure and translate those commands into precise vehicle path-following maneuvers. This is an individual contributor role requiring a high degree of technical proficiency in embedded systems. You will work within a large, cross-functional team, collaborating with infrastructure, safety, and manufacturing engineers to ensure robust, closed-loop control in a production environment.
Required:
1. Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or a related field and 5+ years of relevant experience in embedded software development (C/C++)
2. Experience with vehicle controls, motion control systems, or robotics control algorithms
3. Strong experience with real-time operating systems (safeRTOS or embedded Linux RT, QNX, VxWorks).
4. Proven experience in vehicle motion control or path-following algorithms.
5. Deep understanding of automotive E/E architectures: domain controller, zonal architectures, and software-defined vehicle platforms
6. Model-based development with MATLAB/Simulink and code generation tools
7. Proficiency with CAN/CAN FD, Automotive Ethernet, and UDS diagnostics
8. Working knowledge of ISO 26262 functional safety and ASIL requirements (ASIL-D preferred)
9. Understanding of wireless communication systems (5G, V2X, C-V2X) and TCP/IP networking
10. 2+ years of experience developing automotive software for production applications.
Preferred:
11. Strong desire for candidates with hands on experience that have worked with real platforms and intimately understand the challenges of working with complex systems and have a quantitative/data driven approach to improve system performance
12. Familiarity with Functional Safety standards, specifically ISO 26262 and ISO 21448 (SOTIF).
13. Experience in developing contributing to SAE/VDA/ISO standards
14. Experience with low-latency wireless protocols, V2X, or 5G communication for real-time control applications, embedded development on multi-core hardware.

16. Service-oriented architecture knowledge (SOME/IP, DDS) for automotive applications
17. Experience working with vehicle interfaces, including CAN, CAN-FD or Ethernet networks
18. Expertise in debugging low-level performance issues across a complex embedded system.
19. Experience with systems engineering and design verification planning and execution
20. Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment with a focus on iterative delivery.
21. Vehicle manufacturing / assembly or depot/yard automation environment experience preferred
22. Proficiency with Jira for task management, Jama for requirements traceability, and MagicDraw (or other SysML tools) for model-based systems engineering.
23. Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to navigate a large, complex organization and communicate technical concepts to diverse stakeholders.
