Serve as a technical anchor for the Thermal Subsystem (HVAC & Powertrain Thermal), bridging mechanical, electrical, and software disciplines.
Define and drive the development roadmap for application logic, component controls, and diagnostics.
Orchestrate the development workflow (Sprint planning, JIRA), ensuring technical risks are identified and eliminated early.
Lead the selection and integration of new hardware, authoring precise interface requirements for suppliers and internal controls teams.
Collaborate with control algorithm engineers to optimize system performance and efficiency.
Negotiate interfaces and behaviors with cross-functional teams (e.g., Infotainment, Powertrain) to ensure a seamless customer experience.
Design and execute comprehensive pre-merge verification plans to ensure software robustness.
Conduct hands-on validation using bench setups and vehicle assets, utilizing advanced debugging tools to root-cause complex integration issues.
Review code (C/C++) and sign off on software releases, maintaining a high standard for code quality and system safety.

Requirements

Bachelor's or equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.
3+ years of experience in embedded systems, firmware integration, or systems engineering.
