BSW MCU Senior SW Architect Hashlist ·, Karnataka ·
Job Description
As a BSW MCU Senior Software Architect, you will be part of the Base Software (BSW) Architecture team responsible for designing the next generation of real-time, safety-critical ECUs based on automotive microcontrollers (MCUs). You will define the software architecture, interfaces, and integration strategy for Classic AUTOSAR-based ECUs deployed across the Stellantis software platform.
Engagement details
• Location: Bengaluru, India
• Contract type: Contractor / Permanent EoR contract
• Work model: Hybrid
Responsibilities
• Define the BSW architecture and requirements for MCU-based ECUs, focusing on Classic AUTOSAR layers, MCAL, OS configuration, watchdog, diagnostics, memory, and bootloader strategies.
• Architect and specify low-level drivers and hardware-near components for MCU peripherals (PWM, DIO, SPI, ADC, CAN-FD, UART, I2C, GPT, WDG, GPIO).
• Design real-time execution models, including scheduling, interrupt handling, timing budgets, and resource constraints for ASIL-rated control units.
• Define ECU start-up sequences, fault-recovery mechanisms, degraded-mode strategies, and power management policies for MCU platforms.
• Collaborate with hardware architects on MCU selection, memory layouts, safety mechanisms, and system partitioning.
• Lead integration of BSW modules (COM, DEM, DCM, CSM, E2E, NvM, PduR, etc.) ensuring consistency across the AUTOSAR stack.
• Ensure traceability and alignment between system requirements, BSW architecture, and MCAL configuration.
• Support validation teams in defining test strategies for timing, communication, and safety behavior at BSW level.
• Drive ASPICE- and ISO 26262-compliant architecture work products, including software architecture documents and requirement specifications.
• Participate in cross-domain discussions to ensure seamless integration between MCU ECUs and SoC/HPC domain controllers.
Qualifications
• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in embedded software architecture for automotive microcontrollers.
• Strong expertise in Classic AUTOSAR (BSW, RTE, MCAL) and AUTOSAR specifications.
• Deep experience with MCU architectures
• Proven background in low-level driver design and hardware interfaces
• Experience with real-time systems, task scheduling, interrupt design, and timing analysis.
• Strong understanding of ISO 26262 (ASIL-B/D) for MCU-based ECUs.
• Experience with requirement management tools such as IBM DOORS Next Generation (DNG).
• Proficiency in UML modeling (Rhapsody mandatory; PREEvision is a plus).
• Solid knowledge of automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet gateway basics).
• Experience working in ASPICE-aligned development environments.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills in a global multicultural organization.
