WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE BEST ABOUT US 42dot is a mobility AI company committed to solving mobility challenges with software and AI. As the Global Software Center of Hyundai Motor Group, 42dot pioneers the future of mobility by advancing the development of software-defined vehicles. We develop safety-first, user-centric software-defined vehicle technologies that deliver the latest performance through continuous updates like smartphones. By advancing software and AI technology, 42dot envisions a world where everything is connected and moves autonomously through a self-managing urban transportation operating system. ABOUT THE ROLE As a Sr. Staff Firmware Engineer at 42dot, you will be a foundational developer of the next-generation firmware platform for Hyundai Motor Group’s Software-Defined Vehicles (SDV). You will bridge the gap between high-level applications and raw hardware, ensuring that autonomous driving systems sit atop a secure, high-performance, and safety-critical embedded foundation. This is a high-visibility role requiring a "full-stack" engineering perspective - from reading schematics to deploying production-grade C code. Responsibilities - Architect the Future: Design and implement key components of the next-generation firmware architecture for Hyundai Motor Group, focusing on scalability, modularity, and real-time performance. - Safety-Critical Development: Lead the development of firmware in C that meets rigorous functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262 ASIL-D). - End-to-End Lifecycle: Own the entire product lifecycle from initial hardware bring-up and driver development to over-the-air (OTA) update stability and long-term maintenance. - Hardware-Software Integration: Partner closely with EE teams to review schematics, debug complex integration issues, and utilize EE lab equipment (Oscilloscopes, Logic Analyzers) to validate hardware-software interfaces. - Custom Tooling: Develop internal tools, scripts, and test patterns to automate firmware vali
