Principal Engineer, Router Architect
Job Description
We are seeking a **Principal Router Architect** with **10 to 15 years of experience** to define the backbone of next-generation **Zonal and Central Compute Automotive architectures** . This role focuses on architecting high-bandwidth, ultra-reliable **Ethernet Routing Engines** and **PCIe subsystems** that serve as the primary data fabric for Autonomous Driving (AD) and Cockpit controllers. The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between high-speed data center-grade throughput and the rigorous **Safety (ISO 26262)** and **Deterministic Networking** requirements of the automotive industry.
**Responsibilities:**
+ **Automotive Ethernet Routing** : Architect L2/L3 switch fabrics supporting **Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)** standards (e.g., IEEE 802.1AS, 802.1Qbv, 802.1Qbu) to ensure deterministic latency for safety-critical traffic.
