Embedded AI Software Engineer Senior

About the role

Bosch Engineering Center Cluj is looking for a Senior Embedded AI Software Engineer to design and deploy AI‑enabled embedded systems on a multi‑vendor AI chiplet platform. You will work at the intersection of hardware, low‑level AI accelerators and complex software stacks to create safe, secure and efficient AI pipelines for automotive and industrial applications.

Key responsibilities

• Deploy neural‑network models on embedded targets, handling model slicing, fine‑tuning and quantization‑aware deployment.
• Integrate AI accelerator toolchains into Bosch’s internal development environment.
• Extend the OpenVX glue‑code generator to map AI graphs to heterogeneous chiplets.
• Visualize AI pipeline performance using PRISM‑based tools.
• Develop and optimise OpenVX accelerator back‑ends and kernels for computer‑vision and other AI workloads.
• Implement OpenCL and Vulkan kernels for sensor and image‑processing pipelines on GPUs and hardware accelerators.
• Collaborate with hardware teams to define chiplet‑specific APIs, memory models and communication protocols (e.g., UCIe, host‑side drivers).
• Ensure sensor‑to‑AI data flows meet bandwidth, latency, determinism and safety‑critical requirements.

Required profile

• At least 8 years of experience in embedded software engineering with a focus on AI, computer vision or heterogeneous computing.
• Strong background in low‑level optimisation for embedded platforms.
• Proven ability to work across hardware and software teams in safety‑critical environments.

Required skills

• C++ programming
• OpenVX
• OpenCL
• Vulkan
• AI accelerator toolchains
• Neural‑network deployment, model slicing and quantization
• Chiplet APIs, UCIe, host‑side driver development
• PRISM or similar visualization tools

What we offer

• Modern offices and laboratories in Cluj‑Napoca and other Romanian locations.
• Flexible working conditions and professional development opportunities.
• Collaborative environment within a leading global engineering organization.
