Job description
JSM is helping our client find detail-oriented System Engineers to join its team.

In this role, you'll support the design, development, integration, and validation of system-level software solutions for advanced automotive platforms. You'll collaborate closely with systems engineering, product, and global engineering teams to help deliver scalable, reliable, and high-performance software and middleware solutions across embedded and vehicle systems.


The ideal candidate is highly collaborative, technically strong, and experienced in systems architecture, embedded software, and automotive system integration.

Schedule:
This role is expected to be fully onsite Monday through Friday. While there may occasionally be flexibility for remote work on Mondays and Fridays, candidates should plan to work onsite on a daily basis.

As a System Engineer, you will:

• Collaborate with systems engineering, product, and global engineering teams to design and implement software solutions for the Arene service platform, including tools and SDK components.
• Develop, integrate, and maintain system-level software components with a strong focus on C++, embedded firmware, and Linux-based real-time automotive systems.
• Implement and enhance middleware, inter-process communication frameworks, and scheduling systems that support scalable, hardware-agnostic vehicle services.
• Support software architectures that enable rapid feature deployment and integration across multiple in-vehicle domains.
• Develop and maintain system design specifications, including state machines, sequence diagrams, and testable system requirements.
• Collaborate with integration and quality engineering teams to troubleshoot and resolve complex system- and software-level issues.
• Support system integration, validation, and feature deployment activities across distributed vehicle platforms.
