Mission
About the Role
We are seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to join our engineering team. In this role, you will design, develop, deploy, and support embedded software for electronic products used in on-highway vehicles. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional stakeholders to define software requirements, ensure high quality in software and electrical components, and track issues through resolution using model-based design workflows.
Primary Responsibilities
Software Development: Design, develop, deploy, and support software for electronic vehicle products and on-highway systems.
Model-Based Design: Utilize MATLAB/Simulink and Continental’s Model-Based Development System (MBDS) to engineer embedded software.
Issue Tracking & Resolution: Investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve software defects promptly, tracking bugs through to closure.
Quality Assurance: Ensure the high quality and performance of developed software and integrated electrical components.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Interface with cross-functional stakeholders and team members to gather, refine, and fulfill software requirements.
Profil
Required:
3+ years of demonstrated hands-on experience with MATLAB/Simulink.
Strong knowledge of vehicle communication protocols, specifically CAN J1939.
