Position Summary

This protected-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 laye
