Junior Telematics Software Engineer — Embedded Android at Bosch

Role overview

We are looking for a Junior Telematics Software Engineer to join the team driving the migration of our Telematics Control Unit (TCU) software framework from Embedded Linux to Android (AOSP / Android Automotive). Working under the guidance of our senior engineers, you will help build, test, and validate individual pieces of the new Android-based platform — vehicle-network interfaces, connectivity services, and OTA mechanisms — while learning embedded Android development on a real, shipping-bound migration. This is a strong entry point into embedded Android for someone with a solid C/C++ or Linux foundation who wants to grow into platform-level automotive software work.

Key Responsibilities.

Responsibilities

• Build and unit-test defined pieces of the Linux-to-Android migration under the direction of senior engineers — HAL glue code, native services, or application-layer components.
• Help with porting of vehicle-network interfaces (CAN / CAN-FD, UDS, DoIP) to Vehicle HAL (VHAL) extensions or AIDL/HIDL services, following the architecture the senior engineer defines.
• Help build and maintain the Android build system (AOSP repo/manifest, device tree) for the target TCU hardware, and keep local build/test environments working.
• Run and extend the regression test suite comparing Linux and Android implementations; log and help triage discrepancies.
• Reproduce and debug issues found during bench or vehicle-level testing, and document root cause and fix.
• Assist with basic SELinux policy changes and Android permission configuration under review from senior engineers.
• Keep clear records of what was ported, tested, and verified, to Help with the team's cutover and audit trail.
• Learn the existing embedded Linux telematics stack well enough to explain what a given piece of functionality needs to preserve when ported.

Qualifications

• Required Qualifications.
• Preferred Qualifications.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or a related field (recent graduates welcome).
• 0–2 years of software development experience, with solid fundamentals in C/C++ and Linux (coursework, internships, or personal/academic projects count).
• Basic understanding of Android development concepts (Java/Kotlin, the Android build system) — through coursework, personal projects, or prior internship experience.
• Comfortable reading and debugging someone else's code, and asking for help when stuck rather than guessing.
• Exposure to Git and basic command-line tooling.
• Clear written communication for bug reports, test notes, and status updates.
• Exposure to AOSP, HAL/VHAL, or AIDL/HIDL through coursework, an internship, or personal projects.
• Exposure to vehicle network protocols (CAN, UDS) or embedded Linux (Yocto/Buildroot).
• experience in unit testing frameworks and debugging tools (GDB, JTAG).
• General interest in automotive or embedded systems.

Benefits

• Join in a dynamic and fast-growing global company ( English-speaking environment), with opportunity to work in global projects and being a part of innovation team contributing initiative ideas to the hi-tech world.
• Onsite opportunities: short-term and long-term assignments in worldwide offices.
• Engage in our diverse training programs which surely help strengthen both your personal and professionalism.
• 13th-month salary bonus + attractive performance bonus (you'll love it!) + annual performance appraisal.
• 100% offered salary and mandatory social insurances in 2-month probation.
• more than 15 days of annual leave + 1-day of birthday leave.
• Premium health insurance for employee and 02 family members.
• Flexible working time and working model.
• Lunch and parking allowance.
• Good benefits of company activities such as: football, badminton, yoga, Aerobic, team building….
