About the Role

We are looking for a Junior Telematics Software Engineer to join the team driving the migration of our Telematics Control Unit (TCU) software framework from Embedded Linux to Android (AOSP / Android Automotive). Working under the guidance of our senior engineers, you will help build, test, and validate individual pieces of the new Android-based platform — vehicle-network interfaces, connectivity services, and OTA mechanisms — while learning embedded Android development on a real, shipping-bound migration. This is a strong entry point into embedded Android for someone with a solid C/C++ or Linux foundation who wants to grow into platform-level automotive software work.

Key Responsibilities

• Implement and unit-test defined pieces of the Linux-to-Android migration under the direction of senior engineers — HAL glue code, native services, or application-layer components.
• Support porting of vehicle-network interfaces (CAN / CAN-FD, UDS, DoIP) to Vehicle HAL (VHAL) extensions or AIDL/HIDL services, following the architecture the senior engineer defines.
• Help build and maintain the Android build system (AOSP repo/manifest, device tree) for the target TCU hardware, and keep local build/test environments working.
• Run and extend the regression test suite comparing Linux and Android implementations; log and help triage discrepancies.
• Reproduce and debug issues found during bench or vehicle-level testing, and document root cause and fix.
• Assist with basic SELinux policy changes and Android permission configuration under review from senior engineers.
• Keep clear records of what was ported, tested, and verified, to support the team’s cutover and audit trail.
• Learn the existing embedded Linux telematics stack well enough to explain what a given piece of functionality needs to preserve when ported.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or a related field (recent graduates welcome).
• 0–2 years of software development experience, with solid fundamentals in C/C++ and Linux (coursework, internships, or personal/academic projects count).
• Basic understanding of Android development concepts (Java/Kotlin, the Android build system) — through coursework, personal projects, or prior internship experience.
• Comfortable reading and debugging someone else’s code, and asking for help when stuck rather than guessing.
• Familiarity with Git and basic command-line tooling.
• Clear written communication for bug reports, test notes, and status updates.

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to AOSP, HAL/VHAL, or AIDL/HIDL through coursework, an internship, or personal projects.
• Familiarity with vehicle network protocols (CAN, UDS) or embedded Linux (Yocto/Buildroot).
• Experience with unit testing frameworks and debugging tools (GDB, JTAG).
• General interest in automotive or embedded systems.
