Embedded Controls Software Engineer

Embedded Controls Software Engineer

As an Embedded Controls Software Engineer, you will be a critical contributor to the design, development, and validation of advanced embedded control software for next-generation automotive systems. This specialized role focuses on the Body Control Module, directly impacting vehicle safety, user experience, and electrification readiness. You will leverage your expertise in controls theory, real-time systems, and embedded architecture to architect, develop, and optimize complex safety-critical software throughout the entire product lifecycle.

The Body Control Software team is dedicated to creating Body Control Application Software components, developing and enhancing existing software components that integrate with existing architectures as well as next-generation vehicle systems. Join our diverse global team to design and develop embedded software in areas related to cloud-based computing, ad-hoc computing, and embedded platforms.

Primary Skills Required:

• Embedded Software: Demonstrate the full lifecycle of embedded software development from requirements to implementation to on-target validation for safety-critical automotive systems. Example: Taking a system-level requirement for a new BCM feature, translating it into a functional spec, implementing the control logic, and validating it through SIL/HIL testing using Vector CANoe before production release.
• Embedded Systems: Understand the broader hardware-software interaction, real-time constraints, and communication protocols (CAN/LIN) governing embedded automotive systems. Example: Diagnosing a field issue where a BCM module intermittently fails to respond over CAN, performing root cause analysis using CANoe traces and the MULTI debugger, and implementing a fix that accounts for timing/interrupt behavior on the target ECU.

Experience Required:

• Engineer 3 level
• Practical experience in 2 coding languages or advanced practice in 1 language
• 6 years in IT
• 4 years in development
