Senior Embedded Software Engineer

About Ottawa Infotainment At Ottawa Infotainment, we’re building the next generation of intelligent vehicle platforms: rethinking the digital cockpit through high-performance compute, embedded software, safety-critical systems, and AI-driven experiences.

We are not a traditional Tier 1.

We move fast, own the stack, and solve hard problems at the intersection of embedded systems, automotive, and product design.

If you want to work on foundational technology that ships into vehicles, this is your role.

The Opportunity We’re looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to help architect and develop the framework technologies underpinning DragonFire OS and next-generation domain controllers.

This role is focused less on feature applications and more on core platform engineering.

The software foundations others build upon.

• Develop embedded software frameworks for automotive platforms
• Design middleware, services,drivers, and reusable platform components
• Build software for multi-OS and safety-critical architectures (QNX, Linux, Android, RTOS)
• Develop frameworks supporting graphics, connectivity, audio, vehicle I/O, and domain control
• Optimize performance, memory, startup times, and system resource utilization
• Support BSP, low-level integration, and hardware bring-up activities
• Contribute to software architecture for next-generation centralized compute systems
• Work closely with systems, hardware, and HMI teams on production programs

• Strong C/C++ embedded development skills
• Experience with RTOS, Linux, QNX or automotive software stacks
• Understanding of drivers, middleware, IPC, and systems architecture
• Familiarity with CAN, Ethernet, AUTOSAR, or vehicle communications
