ADAS Architect (Digital Cockpit & Infotainment Fusion Systems)

Help shape the future of mobility.

Imagine a world with zero vehicle accidents, zero vehicle emissions, and wireless vehicle connectivity all around us. Every day, we move closer to making that world a reality. Aptiv's passionate team of engineers and developers creates advanced safety systems, high-performance electrification solutions and data connectivity solutions so that automakers can bring advanced capabilities to more people around the globe. This is how we enable sustainable mobility and help to prevent accidents caused by human error.

Your Role

• Define and own the ADAS + Digital Cockpit fusion architecture for multi-domain SoCs (Qualcomm SA8295P, NVIDIA Orin).
• Design system-level data flow and software partitioning between ADAS functions (perception, vision, sensor fusion) and Infotainment modules (HMI, rendering, audio).
• Architect camera ingestion and video pipeline (ISP, Vision DSP, GPU rendering) for surround view, DMS, and RVC integration.
• Define inter-domain communication interfaces - shared memory, Ethernet (AVB/TSN), SOME/IP, or gRPC - between safety and infotainment domains.
• Ensure system performance KPIs (frame rate, latency, and bandwidth) are optimized for real-time camera and perception tasks.
• Collaborate with HMI and graphics teams to render ADAS visuals (lane, object overlays, alerts) within the cockpit display framework.
• Define and review safety and isolation concepts (ASIL-B/D) across vision and infotainment domains.
• Work with platform vendors (Qualcomm/NVIDIA/TI) to leverage SoC-specific accelerators (CV, GPU, AI) for ADAS use cases.
• Lead proof-of-concept (POC) and prototype implementations for integrated cockpit-ADAS features such as surround view, DMS visualization, and AR HUD overlays.

• Bachelor's / Master's in Electronics, Computer Science, or related discipline.
• 13+ years of automotive embedded experience, with minimum 5 years in ADAS / Cockpit system architecture.
• Strong understanding of camera-based perception systems, sensor calibration, and image pipeline processing.
• Proficiency in Ethernet-based automotive communication (AVB/TSN, SOME/IP, DDS, gRPC).
• Deep expertise in SoC-level integration on platforms such as Qualcomm SA8295P / SA8650 / NVIDIA Orin / TI Jacinto.
• Solid knowledge of AUTOSAR Adaptive, QNX microkernel architecture, and Android Automotive OS integration.
• Experience with GPU and Vision DSP frameworks (OpenVX, OpenGL, TensorRT, SNPE).
• Working knowledge of ISO 26262 safety concepts and ASIL-level architectural partitioning.
• Familiar with ROS2, camera HAL, and GStreamer-based video frameworks.
• Proficient in C/C++ and Python, with hands-on experience in debugging and system profiling.
