Full job description
We are looking for a Senior Network System Architect to define and drive the communication architecture of complex automotive embedded platforms. You will translate product, vehicle and customer needs into scalable network concepts, interfaces and requirements, and lead technical decisions across in-vehicle communication, compute platforms.
The role spans Automotive Ethernet, CAN and CAN FD, network topology, switching, routing, time synchronization, diagnostics, service-oriented communication, bandwidth and latency analysis, network management, security, wake-up behavior and system integration. You will work across system, hardware, software, safety, security, validation, program teams, customers and technology partners.
What will your job look like:
-
Own the end-to-end communication and network architecture for complex automotive platforms and major platform capabilities.
-
Translate product, vehicle and customer needs into network concepts, logical and physical topologies, interface definitions and clear system requirements.
-
Drive architectural decisions across Automotive Ethernet, CAN and CAN FD, SOME/IP, DoIP, UDS, TSN and gPTP time synchronization.
-
Perform bandwidth, latency, jitter, utilization and availability analysis, including worst-case behavior, startup and degraded modes.
-
Define network management, wake-up and sleep concepts, including partial networking and Ethernet wake mechanisms.
-
Align networking requirements with functional safety, cybersecurity, performance, reliability, cost and product constraints.
-
Lead technical alignment with ECU, SoC, hardware, embedded software, middleware, diagnostics, safety, security and validation teams.
-
Define verification strategy and acceptance criteria for communication performance, interoperability, conformance and fault handling.
-
Identify architectural gaps and risks early, define mitigations and drive complex cross-domain issues to closure.
-
Collaborate with customers, semiconductor vendors, switch vendors and tool providers on interfaces, capabilities and integration.
All you need is:
-
B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related discipline. M.Sc. is an advantage.
-
10+ years of experience in embedded development, including 5+ years experience in system architecture, system engineering, or development of complex embedded systems.
-
Proven experience defining network architectures, interfaces, communication requirements and end-to-end data flows.
-
Good understanding of Ethernet switching and IP networking.
-
Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain complex technical topics clearly to diverse stakeholders.
- Ability to lead technical decisions and align multiple engineering teams without relying on direct authority.
Nice to have:
-
Experience with AUTOSAR Classic or Adaptive communication stacks, service discovery and network management.
-
Experience with automotive Ethernet switches, PHYs, MACsec, E2E protection or secure onboard communication.
-
Experience with Vector CANoe, CANalyzer, Wireshark, network simulation, restbus simulation or automated conformance testing.
-
Knowledge of ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434, ASPICE, Polarion, DOORS or similar development and requirements frameworks.
