We are seeking an experienced Lead Software Engineer to spearhead the design, development, and delivery of embedded software solutions for innovative electric drive systems. Operating within a fast-paced, small-to-medium engineering environment, you will provide critical technical leadership across all software development activities. You will lead a dedicated team of software engineers across BSW and Application Software, defining software architecture and driving robust planning, documentation, and organisation. You'll collaborate closely with systems, electronics, mechanical, and test teams to bring advanced electric drive technologies from concept through to validation and production.
Job Responsibility
Technical Leadership & Architecture: Lead the design and development of embedded software for electric drive systems (including BSW, Application Software, motor/charging/DC-DC control, diagnostics, and system functions). Define, maintain, and own the software architecture aligned with product requirements
Team Management & Mentorship: Lead, organize, and mentor software engineers, promoting best practices across development, planning, and documentation. Allocate daily activities and support capability growth
Lifecycle & Process Ownership: Oversee the full software lifecycle-from requirements through implementation, verification, validation, and release. Define tools, methods, and ASPICE-aligned development processes
Hands-on Development: Develop and review high-quality embedded software using model-based development, autocode, and manual coding
Integration & Testing: Lead software integration with hardware platforms and embedded targets. Support prototype and validation activities, including bench, HIL, and dynamometer testing
Continuous Improvement: Drive automated testing, version control, continuous integration, and configuration management. Ensure compliance with standards like ISO 26262, MISRA C, and functional safety principles
Requirements
Electric Drive Expertise: Proven mastery in developing, optimizing, and maintaining embedded software for electric drive systems (BSW, Application Software, motor/inverter/DC-DC control algorithms, and real-time systems)
Leadership Capability: Track record of leading software engineering teams, allocating work, organizing activities, and delivering high-quality, reliable solutions
Delivery Management: Strong capability in software planning, requirements tracking, architecture definition, change control, and configuration management
Testing & Validation: Experience overseeing unit testing, integration testing, HIL, and system-level testing with full traceability
Cross-functional Collaboration: Ability to work seamlessly alongside hardware, controls, systems, and test engineers
Standards & Compliance: Familiarity with automotive/industry standards including ISO 26262, MISRA C, and ASPICE
