Lead Base Software Soc Engineer – Vehicle Integration & Debugging
Pubblicato il 09-08-2026 - KPIT in Torino
Job Description
We are seeking a Lead Base Software So C Engineer to support VHIL labs, production environments, and pre-production plant setups.
This role requires broad systems expertise in embedded software platforms and infotainment subsystems (Displays, Touch Interfaces, Cameras, Audio, Connectivity) with hands-on debugging across Bootloaders, Operating Systems (QNX, Linux, Android) & Hypervisors, Middleware stacks, Diagnostics frameworks, HPC So C platforms Flashing tools and FOTA processes.
The engineer will act as a first responder in production environments, driving rapid issue resolution and ensuring system readiness for vehicle integration.
Debug and triage embedded software issues in Plant, VHIL, and Production setups Travel as required to production plants, test facilities to support on-site issue resolution Support system bring-up and troubleshooting of bootloaders, OS, hypervisors, middleware stacks, and diagnostics Debug and validate infotainment peripherals and connectivity subsystems, including Touch Interfaces - driver bring-up, calibration, responsiveness, and UI integration Audio - HAL customization, DSP integration, routing, amplifiers, codecs BTWi Fi - connectivity stacks, pairing, diagnostics, integration Radio Tuners - AMFM, DAB, SXM, tuner HAL and middleware integration USB and Automotive Ethernet subsystems.
Support diagnostic flashing processes (UDS-based flashing, Do IP-based flashing, plant reprogramming workflows) Collaborate with FOTA teams to debug Firmware Over-The-Air update mechanisms, including campaign execution, partial updates, and rollback handling Develop and maintain toolsscripts for log capture, automated debugging, and flashing workflows Ensure comprehensive diagnostic coverage (UDS, Do IP, SOMEIP, OBD-II) and plant readiness Collaborate with Base SW, Integration, Cockpit Infotainment, Connectivity, and Plant teams for root-cause analysis and resolution Document and share root causes, workarounds, and lessons learned to drive continuous improvement Job Description
