Minimum Qualification: B.E / B.Tech / M.E / M.Tech in Electronics, Communication, or Computer Engineering.

Key Responsibilities

• Define system-level Wi-Fi and Bluetooth architecture (hardware + software) for 
infotainment platforms (e.g., Qualcomm SA8155 / SA8295 / SA6145 with Wi-Fi / BT Combo chips).

• Lead the connectivity subsystem design covering WLAN, BT Classic, BLE, and 
Coexistence mechanisms.

• Collaborate with SoC vendors (Qualcomm, Broadcom, NXP, etc.) for HLOS and 
firmware integration.

• Define and review interface requirements between Wi-Fi / BT stack, middleware,  and application layers.

• Drive feature integration and validation for:
o Bluetooth profiles (A2DP, HFP, AVRCP, PBAP, MAP, HID, etc.)
o Wi-Fi features (STA, SoftAP, P2P, Wi-Fi Direct, Miracast, Hotspot, WPA3, 
802.11ax/ac).

• Architect and oversee projection features integration (Android Auto / CarPlay 
wireless modes).

• Define and optimize coexistence strategy between Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and LTE/5G 
modems.

• Support system performance tuning, throughput optimization, and latency 
reduction.

• Define certification readiness plans – Wi-Fi Alliance, Bluetooth SIG (IOP), 
regulatory compliance (FCC/CE).

• Provide technical leadership to development and integration teams, reviewing 
designs and test plans.

• Support root-cause analysis and debugging of complex RF or connectivity 
interoperability issues.

• Collaborate with platform, middleware, and audio teams to ensure robust crossdomain integration.

• Evaluate and integrate diagnostic and logging tools (mandiag, QXDM, Wireshark, BTSnoop, etc.).

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong expertise in Wi-Fi (IEEE a/b/g/n/ac/ax) and Bluetooth (v5.x)
technologies.

• Deep understanding of connectivity architecture in embedded Linux / QNX / 
Android Automotive environments.

• Experience with Qualcomm Connectivity Stack (CNSS, BlueZ, Bluedroid) or 
equivalent vendor stacks.

• Proven experience in Wi-Fi & BT coexistence, performance tuning, and 
certification.

• Hands-on with Wireshark / BT sniffer / Spectrum Analyzer and RF debugging 
tools.

• Working knowledge of Automotive Infotainment integration flows and vehicle level test setups.

• Experience with Android Connectivity Framework, HALs, and middleware 
components.

• Familiarity with networking protocols (TCP/IP, DHCP, DNS, ICMP) and security 
mechanisms (WPA2/WPA3).

• Exposure to Automotive Standards – A-SPICE, ISO26262 (awareness), and ASPICE Level 2+ process adherence.

• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional leadership skills.

Good to Have:

• Experience with CarPlay / Android Auto Wireless Projection integration.

• Familiarity with Audio over Bluetooth (SCO/eSCO, LE Audio, LC3 codec).

• Prior work on Multi-radio coexistence (BT/Wi-Fi/LTE/GNSS).

• Experience with Over-the-Air (OTA) update frameworks for connectivity firmware.

• Exposure to Telematics or TCU integration.
