They're the masterminds behind the scenes, configuring the core software components (AUTOSAR BSW) to ensure the vehicle's systems are reliable and efficient. They dive deep into the code to solve complex issues like processor resets and software glitches, making sure the engine runs smoothly and the car responds to every driver command. They meticulously build the platform, optimizing performance by strategically distributing software across different processors.

It's a challenging and rewarding role, where every line of code contributes to a safer, more efficient, and more enjoyable driving experience.
