We’re looking for a hands‑on software engineer who enjoys debugging, system thinking, and solving real customer problems. This role is within the Applications team, working closely with senior engineers to help customers integrate our MPU products into their systems.
This is a great fit for someone with early‑career experience who wants to broaden into low‑level software, Linux systems, and HW/SW interaction.
Your Responsibilities
Software‑Focused Technical Work
Assist in developing sample code, demo applications, and small proof‑of‑concepts that help customers adopt features of S32‑family MPUs.
Reproduce customer issues, collect logs, isolate failure points, and help root‑cause problems across bootloaders, drivers, multi‑core initialization, and memory/interconnect subsystems.
Support creation and maintenance of internal tools, scripts, and utilities that accelerate debug and validation workflows.
Customer‑Oriented Engineering Support
Join customer calls together with senior engineers; gradually take on more direct interaction as confidence grows.
Help customers integrate NXP software components into their distributions, advising on configuration, patches, and debugging approaches.
Perform board‑level bring‑up tasks guided by senior staff (serial console, boot diagnostics, basic power‑on validation, etc.)
Cross‑Team Collaboration & Learning
Engage with internal silicon, software, validation, and systems teams to track, escalate, or reproduce issues in‑house.
Contribute to internal documentation, debug reports, and learning materials for both the team and customers.
Rapidly grow competence in multi‑core Linux, high‑speed interfaces (PCIe/Ethernet), and embedded debug methodologies.
Your Profile
Experience of professional software experience — ideally in systems programming, embedded Linux, or platform bring‑up.
Strong debugging mindset: ability to read logs, trace code paths, form hypotheses, and test assumptions.
Comfortable writing C, C++, Python, or similar for debugging, scripting, and integration tasks.
Curiosity and willingness to learn multi‑core systems, memory architecture, interrupt routing, and performance analysis.
Automotive industry experience is useful but absolutely not required. What matters most is strong software fundamentals, curiosity, and a willingness to dive deep.
Nice to Have / Bonus
Exposure to bootloaders (U‑Boot preferred), device tree tuning, or kernel driver basics.
Familiarity with Yocto or similar build systems.
Any automotive experience (standards, ECUs, embedded platforms) is helpful but not required.
Interest in hardware‑aware software engineering: timing, resource constraints, and concurrency across multiple cores.
This role can be based in Roznov or Ostrava. We offer a hybrid way of working: 3 days from the office (Roznov or Ostrava sites) and 2 days from home.
What can you expect?
