We are looking for an experienced Automotive MCU Chip Architect to define the system and subsystem architecture of next-generation automotive microcontrollers. The role includes ownership of chip-level architecture concepts, subsystem partitioning, compute and memory architecture, interconnect strategy, safety and security integration, power/reset/clock concepts, and hardware/software interface definition. The successful candidate will work closely with product management, safety, security, design, verification, software, and implementation teams to ensure the MCU architecture meets demanding automotive
requirements for real-time performance, functional safety, cybersecurity, reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
Define the overall automotive MCU architecture from product, customer, and market requirements.
Translate use cases into chip-level requirements covering performance, safety, security, power, cost, and scalability.
Drive system partitioning across CPUs, memories, interconnects, peripherals, safety/security functions, debug, test, and power domains.
Own architecture trade-offs and document decision rationale for reuse across MCU families and derivatives.
Align subsystem concepts and interfaces across compute, memory, bus/interconnect, peripheral, safety, security, power/reset/clock, debug/trace, and DFT/test domains.
Ensure subsystem requirements are i
