Experience Level: 10+ Years
Role Type: Architect / Technical Lead
Location: Pune / Bangalore / Hyderabad

Position Summary
This secure-critical infrastructure specialist focuses on the virtualization layer. They ensure that un-trusted
infotainment software (like Android guest OS) can run alongside safety-critical real-time applications (like
instrument clusters) on the same SoC without interference.

Key Responsibilities
●Drive the low-level, system-level software design for QNX RTOS and Type-1 Hypervisor architectures.
●Design high-performance, secure Inter-Process Communication (IPC) mechanisms between
virtualized guest operating systems.
●Architect hardware passthrough, device virtualization, and shared-resource scheduling rules (GPU,
Audio, Peripherals).
●Enforce freedom-from-interference (FFI) to isolate safety-critical clusters from infotainment
environments.
●Define secure boot and hardware security module (HSM) integration strategy for the virtualization
layer.
●Review low-level designs, mentor engineers, and enforce coding and safety-partitioning standards.




●Collaborate with silicon vendors and hardware teams on BSP and hypervisor bring-up.

Required Technical Skills
●BlackBerry QNX Neutrino RTOS, QNX Hypervisor, or similar embedded virtualization stacks (e.g.,
OpenSynergy, COVESA).
●IPC design (PPS, QNX native messaging), Board Support Packages (BSP), and device driver
development.
●Strong grounding in Qualcomm Snapdragon Ride, NVIDIA DRIVE Orin/Rubin, or NXP S32G processor
architectures.
●Safety isolation expertise: ASIL-B to ASIL-D structural partitioning, secure boot chains, and hardware
security module (HSM) hooks.

Preferred Skills
●Experience architecting hypervisor-based consolidation of safety-critical and infotainment domains
on a single SoC.
●Exposure to GPU, audio, or peripheral virtualization and shared-resource scheduling design.
●Familiarity with ISO 26262 functional safety processes applied to virtualization layers.
●Experience working directl
