Sr. Specialist – Vehicle Dev. Tooling & Automation

Scout Motors • Charlotte, NC

2h • $140,000 - $170,000 • Onsite

About The Position

The EE/SW Integration Manager at the OEM level owns and builds the infrastructure that enables rapid, reliable iteration of vehicle software and electronics. You’ll work close to the vehicle—developing automation, integration pipelines, and test systems that connect embedded software running on ECUs with cloud-based development workflows. This role goes beyond architecture compliance and focuses on feature behavior, timing performance, system robustness, drivability impact, and cross-domain interaction quality. This role bridges embedded systems, software integration, and development infrastructure to enable efficient, scalable, and reliable engineering workflows. Work directly with MSTs, software engineers, systems engineers, validation teams, and suppliers to ensure robust delivery.
Become part of an iconic brand that is set to revolutionize the electric pick-up truck & rugged SUV marketplace by achieving the following:
End-to-End Toolchain architect responsible to develop and implement toolchains spanning: Code commit → build → ECU flashing → vehicle/HIL testing → data logging → analysis
Build internal developer tools (CLI, services, dashboards) to streamline engineering workflows with reliability and performance of integration pipelines.
Develop CI/CD systems tailored for embedded and distributed vehicle software with cross-compilation and artifact management
Automate ECU flashing (UDS, bootloaders) across benches and vehicles and OTA package generation and deployment workflows with integrating HIL rigs into automated pipelines.
Work directly with vehicle networks (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet) and develop tooling to monitor and simulate bus traffic, validate signal-level behavior across ECUs
Debug issues spanning firmware, middleware, and physical hardware.
Build and maintain SIL/HIL framework, vehicle-level regression systems, automate test orchestration across multiple environments (bench, dyno, fleet vehicles).
Create pipelines for ingesting and analyzing vehicle telemetry and test data.
Develop tools for log parsing (CAN traces, diagnostic logs), real-time monitoring and alerting
Enable engineers to quickly root-cause issues from large datasets.
Developer experience & velocity with one-command build/test/flash systems, reproducible dev environments (Docker, Nix, etc.)
Drive adoption of best practices in versioning, branching, and release management
Strong programming in Python and/or C++ (Go/Rust is a plus).
Deep experience with embedded systems development (bare-metal or RTOS).
Hands-on experience with vehicle communication protocols: CAN (DBC, UDS), LIN, Automotive Ethernet
Experience building CI/CD systems, familiarity with Linux-based development environments.
