In this role, you will help design and implement embedded software solutions that power Vermeer's next-generation machinery, used in industries like agriculture, construction, utilities, and more. You'll work alongside a collaborative team to build innovative, reliable, and efficient systems that help shape the next generation of intelligent, automated off-highway equipment. What You'll Do 1. Design, develop, and test embedded software using C, C++, and MATLAB/Simulink for real-time control systems. 2. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate stakeholder needs into technical requirements and implement solutions that align with Vermeer's innovation goals. 3. Develop and refine Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) and user experiences for embedded control systems. 4. Integrate and validate control systems using CAN protocols (e.g., SAE J1939) and serial communication standards. 5. Support rapid prototyping and iterative development using Agile methodologies and DevOps practices such as Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and version control (Git, GitHub). 6. Contribute to safety-critical system development with awareness of functional safety standards like International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 26262 or International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61508., Work Location HYBRID: Some of a team member's day-to-day work may be best done at a location other than a Vermeer campus. Discuss specific arrangements with your manager. ## Related Videos - [Agile work at CARIAD – Creating a customer web application for controlling the vehicle ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/200-agile-work-at-cariad-creating-a-customer-web-application-for-controlling-the-vehicle) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard) - [Now is the time for industrialized software development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/601-now-is-the-time-for-industrialized-software-development)
