Embedded Software Engineer

You will work within a disciplined yet dynamic, fast-paced and delivery-driven automotive engineering environment to: Develop software aligned to ASPICE Level 2 objectives (supporting the transition to full compliance) Ensure full traceability from customer/system requirements through to code and test. Develop software using a structured, layered architecture. Plan and deliver work in line with project timing using Jira. Produce clear, traceable test evidence and reports. Apply strong debugging and test skills to support integration and issue resolution. Work directly with customers to understand and help define system-level functionality. Collaborate with hardware engineers to define how requirements are partitioned across HW and SW. Contribute to system-level thinking, ensuring correct end-to-end behaviour. Take ownership (with support) of process improvements and efficiency gains, including ASPICE maturity development., Develop embedded software (C/C++) for automotive applications. Translate customer and system requirements into structured solutions. Maintain traceability across requirements, design, implementation, and testing. Follow defined architecture and coding standards. Support verification, integration, and issue resolution. Collaborate effectively within a cross-functional engineering team environment. Drive continuous improvement in process, quality, and delivery. Contribute to ASPICE development and audit readiness. Work with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet). Debug software issues at system, ECU, and network level. Use Vector tools or equivalent automotive test and tools.
