Job Summary

We are seeking a Software Engineering Manager to lead development of core Platform OS and driver software that enables reliable, scalable, and high-performance compute platforms. This role is responsible for building and leading a strong engineering team across platform operating system software, board support packages, hardware abstraction layers, and device drivers.

The ideal candidate brings a strong technical foundation in embedded systems and low-level software, along with proven people leadership. They will drive execution across platform bring-up, software integration, performance, stability, and cross-functional delivery while partnering closely with hardware, systems, validation, product, and program teams.

This is an L8 Software Engineering Manager role supporting a location-flexible hybrid work model.

The Role

As the Software Engineering Manager for Platform OS and Drivers, you will lead a team responsible for foundational software that powers next-generation vehicle compute platforms. You will balance technical direction, delivery execution, and people leadership to ensure the team delivers robust platform capabilities that downstream product and feature teams can depend on.

You will work across the full platform lifecycle, including architecture, bring-up, integration, debugging, optimization, quality, and long-term maintainability. Success in this role requires strong systems thinking, clear prioritization, and the ability to align teams across hardware and software boundaries.
