This role makes incremental C++ changes in low-level software, middleware, and application software to help engineering and integration teams overcome compile, deployment, and integration issues.  The role combines embedded software adaptation, technical root-cause analysis, deployment tooling, and vehicle/bench integration support. It requires close collaboration with Germany-based engineering teams and local ADAS integration teams to analyze issues, implement fixes, validate changes, and improve the speed and reliability of software delivery to benches and vehicles.  Role Responsibilities: Embedded Software Adaptation Lead and implement incremental C++ changes in low-level software, middleware, and application software to resolve ADAS integration blockers.  Analyze compile, link, runtime, and integration failures and drive fixes from root cause through validation.  Review, refine, and land software changes using established code-review, branching, and release processes.  Identify recurring integration pain points and propose software-level adaptations that reduce future integration effort  Build, Compile & Integration Issue Resolution Reproduce and debug build, compile, and integration failures across local, bench, and CI environments.  Partner with engineering teams to resolve dependency, configuration, toolchain, and interface issues affecting ADAS software integration.  Provide technical leadership during integration events by triaging failures, prioritizing fixes, and coordinating validation activities.  Document root cause, fix approach, validation evidence, and lessons learned to improve future integration cycles.  Deployment Tooling, Automation & Vehicle Flashing Support Develop and maintain deployment tooling to package, validate, and deliver ADAS software to bench and vehicle targets.  Build reproducible deployment environments and toolchains, including local, CI, and cloud environments, to support consistent outcomes.  Implement automation that connects build artifacts, release candidates, deployment consumers, and vehicle/bench flashing workflows.  Support vehicle flashing and provisioning workflows, including troubleshooting installation, recovery, and configuration issues on bench and vehicle targets  Cross-Functional Collaboration   & Engineering Alignment Work closely with Germany-based ADAS engineering teams to understand software changes, integration constraints, and release expectations.  Translate integration findings into actionable software fixes, technical recommendations, and clear escalation paths.  Lead technical discussions with software, embedded, integration, test, and release teams to align implementation and validation plans.  Mentor engineers on debugging methods, code-quality expectations, and practical approaches for accelerating integration.
