Job Description

Embedded Software Engineer – Vehicle Systems

Location: Winamac, IN or Carmel, IN (On-site)

We are seeking a hands-on Embedded Software Engineer to join a dynamic engineering team developing real-world vehicle control systems. This role focuses on building embedded firmware that directly interfaces with hardware components such as motors, sensors, and vehicle communication networks.

Role Overview

You will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining embedded software for ARM-based controllers used in vehicle systems. This is a full lifecycle role involving architecture, development, debugging, validation, and production support.

Key Responsibilities

Embedded Software Development

• Design and develop embedded C/C++ firmware for ARM-based microcontrollers (STM32 or similar)
• Implement modular and scalable software using state-machine-based architectures
• Develop features for motor control, sensor interfaces, timers, and power management (sleep/wake)
• Support firmware updates and system enhancements

Vehicle Network & System Integration

• Develop and maintain communication over CAN and LIN networks
• Integrate software with vehicle systems and multi-module environments
• Debug system-level issues related to timing, communication, and hardware interaction

Testing & Validation

• Support integration testing, debugging, and validation activities
• Work with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) setups and test environments

Documentation & Collaboration

• Create and maintain technical documentation (architecture, communication protocols, test procedures)
• Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, systems, and manufacturing teams
• Follow quality, safety, and compliance standards in a regulated environment

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
• Strong experience with embedded C/C++ development
• Hands-on experience with ARM-based microcontrollers (STM32 or similar)
• Experience with communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, UART, SPI, or I2C
• Strong debugging skills using tools like debuggers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, or CAN tools

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with vehicle systems or industrial/mobile equipment
• Familiarity with state machine-based control architectures
• Exposure to automotive safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262)
• Experience with HIL testing or production test environments
• Experience working in cross-functional engineering teams

Why This Role?

• Work on software that directly controls physical systems in real-world applications
• High ownership across the full product lifecycle
• Opportunity to contribute to system architecture and next-generation platform development
