<p>As a key member of our Office of Cybersecurity, reporting to the Director of the organization, you'll play a critical part in shaping the future of mobility. If you're looking for the chance to leverage advanced technology to redefine the transportation landscape, enhance the customer experience and improve people's lives, this is the opportunity for you. Join us and challenge your embedded security expertise and analytical skills to help create vehicles that are as smart as you are.</p> <p>The Embedded Security Engineer will serve a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining production-ready implementations of common security mitigations for Ford embedded platforms. You will work closely with the cybersecurity technical lead and cross-functional teams (software, systems, validation, and cybersecurity) to deliver robust, high-quality software that can be adopted by ECU programs across the vehicle. Deliverables include source libraries, prebuilt libraries, and a complete automated test suite.</p> <p>Embedded Security Engineer</p> <p>What you'll do…</p> <ul> <li>Design, develop, integrate, and maintain production-grade embedded software implementing defined security mitigations for ECU programs. </li><li>Deliver reusable software as source code libraries, prebuilt libraries, and supporting automated tests (unit, integration, regression) suitable for broad ECU adoption. </li><li>Implement primarily in C/C++, with supporting development in Python and Java for tooling, automation, testing, and integration activities as needed. </li><li>Work within Classic AUTOSAR architecture and workflows to implement mitigations across SWCs/BSW, configurations, and integration patterns. </li><li>Contribute to diagnostic/security behavior aligned to UDS (ISO 14229-1) where applicable to the mitigation scope. </li><li>Support cybersecurity engineering needs aligned to ISO/SAE 21434, including implementation traceability, evidence generation, and documentation to support compliance activities; demonstrate familiarity with UNECE R155 expectations. </li><li>Use Jira to manage work items, execution status, and documentation supporting product development rigor. </li><li>Collaborate using modern development practices and tools including GitHub (source control, pull requests, and code reviews) and AUTOSAR tooling such as Vector DaVinci (or similar) for configuration and integration. </li></ul> <p>Participate in code reviews, debugging, test development/execution, and release readiness activities to ensure high-quality secure deliveries.</p> <ul> <li>Collaborate with Verification & Validation teams to develop and execute security-focused test plans </li></ul> <p>What you'll do…</p> <ul> <li>Design, develop, integrate, and maintain production-grade embedded software implementing defined security mitigations for ECU programs. </li><li>Deliver reusable software as source code libraries, prebuilt libraries, and supporting automated tests (unit, integration, regression) suitable for broad ECU adoption. </li><li>Implement primarily in C/C++, with supporting development in Python and Java for tooling, automation, testing, and integration activities as needed. </li><li>Work within Classic AUTOSAR architecture and workflows to implement mitigations across SWCs/BSW, configurations, and integration patterns. </li><li>Contribute to diagnostic/security behavior aligned to UDS (ISO 14229-1) where applicable to the mitigation scope. </li><li>Support cybersecurity engineering needs aligned to ISO/SAE 21434, including implementation traceability, evidence generation, and documentation to support compliance activities; demonstrate familiarity with UNECE R155 expectations. </li><li>Use Jira to manage work items, execution status, and documentation supporting product development rigor. </li><li>Collaborate using modern development practices and tools including GitHub (source control, pull requests, and code reviews) and AUTOSAR tooling such as Vector DaVinci (or similar) for configuration and integration. </li></ul> <p>Participate in code reviews, debugging, test development/execution, and release readiness activities to ensure high-quality secure deliveries.</p> <ul> <li>Collaborate with Verification & Validation teams to develop and execute security-focused test plans </li></ul>
