Objective of Job
<ul>
<li>Responsible for the definition, optimization, and end-to-end technical alignment of telematics system architecture, with strong focus on both hardware and software architecture as well as the integration of peripheral components and in-vehicle interfaces.</li>
<li>As lead system architect, drive the full lifecycle from requirements analysis, architecture concept development, technical specification, and design review to supplier implementation follow-up, system integration, and validation. Define and maintain the architectural framework for core TCU hardware building blocks, embedded software layers, operating environment, communication paths, power and wake-up behaviour, and the interaction between the TCU and integrated/peripheral components such as antennas, GNSS, microphones, speakers, USB, Ethernet, CAN, and other connected ECUs.</li>
<li>Ensure that hardware architecture, software architecture, and interface definitions are technically consistent and scalable across vehicle projects, and support reliable realization of connectivity, telematics, diagnostic, and remote service functions. Clarify architectural dependencies between main-stream modem suppliers with NAD/SiP, MCU/SoC, memory, power supply, bus systems, base software, middleware, application functions, and external components to achieve robust system behaviour and production readiness.</li>
</ul>
Main tasks

</ol>
<ul>
<li>Define the overall TCU system architecture, including core hardware building blocks, computing and communication domains, software layers, interface concepts, and system partitioning principles.</li>
<li>Specify the architectural design and interaction of key TCU hardware and software elements such as modem, MCU/SoC, memory, power supply, operating environment, base software, middleware, and application functions.</li>
<li>Define and maintain technical interfaces between the TCU and peripheral components, including antennas, GNSS, microphones, speakers, USB, Ethernet, CAN, and other connected ECUs, ensuring signal flow, compatibility, and robust integration behaviour.</li>
<li>Develop system requirements and subsystem specifications covering architecture concepts, interface definitions, communication paths, power and wake-up behaviour, diagnostics, performance, and failure handling.</li>
<li>Assess technical feasibility and architectural consistency across TCU hardware, embedded software, vehicle E/E architecture, and peripheral component integration, and drive solution decisions for complex cross-domain issues.</li>
<li>Define architecture validation scope and review implementation maturity for hardware/software integration, interface robustness, system stability, sleep/wake-up behaviour, and interaction with external components and vehicle networks.</li>
</ul>
<ol start="2">
<li>Co-drive the architectural alignment of TCU system design with backend, cloud, and external interfaces, with focus on hardware/software architecture implications and integration boundaries.</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Support the definition and evolution of external communication architecture where backend services, cloud functions, and offboard interfaces impact TCU software architecture, data handling, and system interaction behaviour.</li>
<li>Review architectural impacts of backend and cloud interface changes on TCU system design, including software partitioning, communication paths, signal flow, diagnostics, and interaction with relevant ECUs and peripheral components.</li>
<li>Support cross-domain issue analysis and solution alignment when remote services, diagnostic communication, or cloud-related functions affect TCU hardware/software integration, external interfaces, or peripheral component behaviour.</li>
</ul>
<ol start="3">
