Touch and Display Engineer

Seeking a highly skilled and experienced Touch and Display Engineer to join our innovative team, focusing on the next generation of in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems. In this critical role, you will be responsible for the entire display and touch stack, from low-level hardware bring-up to seamless integration within a hypervisor-based architecture. You will drive the development and optimization of display and touch solutions, ensuring a premium, responsive, and reliable user experience for our customers.

This position involves deep expertise in embedded systems, virtualization, and the interaction between Linux/Android environments.

Responsibilities
  • Contribute to the architecture, design, and implementation of the complete display and touch software stack for automotive IVI systems.
  • Drive low-level display bring-up activities, including display controller configuration, timing, panel integration, and optimization for various display technologies (e.g., LCD, OLED).
  • Develop and integrate touch panel drivers and middleware, including support for various touch technologies (capacitive, resistive), gesture recognition, calibration, and noise filtering.
  • Work extensively within a hypervisor environment, specifically managing the interactions between Linux/Android for display and touch functionalities.
  • Design and implement display management features such as backlight control, resolution switching, multi-display support, and fault monitoring.
  • Optimize display performance, focusing on frame rate, color accuracy, power consumption, and latency reduction to meet stringent automotive standards.
  • Develop and debug embedded software in C/C++ for real-time operating systems (RTOS) like Linux and Android Automotive OS.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware engineers, UI/UX designers, system architects, and software development teams to ensure cohesive and integrated solutions.
  • Perform system-level debugging and troubleshooting of complex issues across the display, touch, and hypervisor layers using various tools (e.g., gdb, JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).
  • Ensure software compliance with automotive safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262) and EMC requirements.
  • Stay abreast of emerging display and touch technologies, industry trends, and virtualization advancements, proposing innovative solutions to enhance product performance and user experience.
  • Contribute to software architecture design, code reviews, and comprehensive documentation of designs, integration processes, and testing procedures.
Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 8+ years of experience in embedded software development, with a significant focus on display and touch systems.
  • Proven expertise in C/C++ programming for embedded platforms.
  • In-depth knowledge of embedded display interfaces (e.g., MIPI DSI, Display Port, LVDS, HDMI) and graphics APIs (e.g., OpenGL ES, Vulkan), and touch controller protocols (e.g., I2C, SPI).
  • Strong experience with Linux kernel development, including device drivers (DRM/KMS) and input subsystems.
  • Hands‑on experience with virtualization technologies, and a clear understanding of privileged and user domain interactions.
  • Experience with embedded system debugging tools and methodologies.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze and problem‑solve complex technical issues quickly and effectively.
  • Ability to lead technical discussions and mentor junior engineers.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in the automotive industry, particularly with in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems.
  • Familiarity with Android display and input frameworks.
  • Knowledge of automotive communication protocols (e.g., CAN, Ethernet).
  • Experience with advanced display technologies such as OLED and mini‑LED.
  • Familiarity with Yocto/Open Embedded build systems.
  • Understanding of GPU acceleration technologies for infotainment applications.
  • Experience with automotive safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262) and cybersecurity frameworks.
