Software Engineer-Device Drivers

Software Engineer – Device Drivers

Mid to Senior Level  |  Multiple Positions |  Pune, India (Hybrid/Remote, in India )

The Software team at Ethernovia builds cutting-edge software systems tightly integrated with our hardware communication and acceleration solutions. We own the full stack — Software Modeling, Applications, SDK, Middleware, OS Kernel Drivers, Firmware, Compilers, Micro-code, Frameworks, Tools, Infrastructure, and Evaluation/Test Platforms — engineered for automotive-grade, safety-critical systems and qualified to the highest standards, including MISRA, AUTOSAR, and ASPICE.

You will be responsible for Ethernovia's networking devices software stack development, including kernel/user-mode device drivers, stack extensions, debug and test utilities, and automated unit/system testing. The drivers will integrate with the communication stack of a Linux and AUTOSAR stack, allowing user applications, middleware, and the operating system to take full advantage of the feature-rich hardware.

As part of the Software team, you will own the architecture, design, implementation, testing, and integration of device drivers that roll into Ethernovia's SDK, built ground-up for safety-critical automotive applications. We build products with strict adherence to Functional Safety, and every team member is expected to embrace a culture of safety and engineering best practices.
