Original job description

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.

What You’ll Work On

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

What We’re Looking For

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
Experience debugging on real hardware using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG tools
Bonus: hypervisor, graphics pipelines, cybersecurity, AI/edge compute

Why Join Oi

Work on platform technology, not just application layers
Help shape products from architecture to production
Join a small elite team doing Tier-1 caliber work with startup velocity
Build technology that can redefine software-defined vehicles
