• Bring up and flash software on target hardware, benches and vehicles

• Set up and run integration testing on SIL, HIL and in-vehicle environments

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and integration test automation

• Triage integration issues across software, network and hardware layers, and drive root-cause analysis with the software teams

• Track integration readiness and quality to hit SoP milestones

• Set up an integration workflow that works across Japan and US time zones

• 5+ years of experience in automotive software integration, build/release engineering or ECU software development

• Working knowledge of C and C++, and of build systems (e.g. CMake, Make, Bazel)

• Experience integrating software on embedded Linux, QNX or RTOS-based targets

• Hands-on experience with HIL/SIL environments and automotive tools (e.g. Vector CANoe/CANalyzer, dSPACE, Lauterbach, ETAS or similar)

• Strong understanding of in-vehicle networks (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet, SOME/IP) and diagnostics (UDS, DoIP), including flashing and reprogramming

• Scripting experience for automation (Python, Bash)

• Experience with Git and CI/CD tools (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions)

• Strong debugging skills across hardware, software and network layers

• Fluency in both English and Japanese (written and verbal), with the ability to operate effectively in a bilingual business environment

Nice to have:

• Experience integrating Classic AUTOSAR and/or Adaptive AUTOSAR stacks (e.g. Vector DaVinci, EB tresos)

• Experience with containerization or virtualization (Docker, hypervisors) for automotive platforms

• Knowledge of ASPICE, ISO 26262 functional safety or ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity

• Experience with OTA update systems or software configuration management at scale

• Experience working directly with OEM or Tier 1 customers

• Experience with in-vehicle testing and data logging/analysis tools
