Embedded Software Engineer

Job Description:

• Client is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to support Platform building block development.
• In this role, you will work with a team to develop foundational embedded software building blocks, including ASPICE work products, that will integrate into a Pods based system.
• This position emphasizes strong embedded C skills, system level understanding, and the ability to design robust software components that can be cleanly integrated.

Responsibilities:

• Develop initial embedded C software that forms the foundational building blocks of a Platform based software system.
• Collaborate with the SW Architect to define architecture aligned module behavior, interfaces, and integration strategy.
• Implement system functionality such as power management logic, diagnostic handling (UDS), communication services, and internal software infrastructure.
• Support system-level analysis, debugging, and issue resolution.
• Develop and analyze CAN communication behavior using CANalyzer/Canoe.
• Support development and analysis of SENT (SAE J2716) communication interface / device driver for bench prototype hardware.
• Participate in unit tests, static analysis, and internal verification activities.
• Utilize cross compilers, debuggers, and embedded development tools during software build-up.
• Follow Client development processes including ASPICE and basic functional safety expectations (ISO 26262).
• Work efficiently with global team members and contribute to early-phase Platform planning, reviews, and bring-up activities.

Requirements:

• 5-7 years of experience developing embedded software in C.
• Strong background with 16/32-bit microcontrollers (TriCore, S32, Renesas, Cypress, etc.).
• Proven experience developing embedded building-block modules (state management, communication abstractions, diagnostics, power modes, etc.).
• Experience with UDS, diagnostics workflows, and automotive communication protocols (CAN).
• Proficiency with compilers, debuggers, and software build systems.
• Demonstrated experience with static analysis, unit testing, and verification processes.
• Strong debugging and system analysis skills.
• Exposure to ASPICE and general automotive development process expectations.
• Awareness of ISO 26262 functional safety basics.

Soft Skills:

• Excellent written and verbal communication.
• Collaborative mindset - especially in architect-driven and cross-discipline environments.
• Strong self-motivation, organization, and ownership.
• Ability to work smoothly with global teams and contribute to early-phase technical decision-making.

Optional / Preferred Skills:

• Experience with occupant sensing systems or airbag domain software.
• Prior work on early-phase prototype or advanced development programs.
• Familiarity with functional safety work products (FMEA, FMEDA).

Education:

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
