Graduate Edge AI & Embedded Software Engineer

NXP Semiconductors; Glasgow; On-site; GBP 28,000 - 40,000; Full time

Job summary

NXP Semiconductors, Glasgow-based graduate role in AI at the edge, joins an automotive AI team building real-time intelligent silicon. You’ll work with S32N MPUs, deploy ML models, and prototype on-device AI solutions for automotive customers.

We seek a degree in CS/ Electronics/ AI, fluent with AI/ML concepts, Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow/ONNX, and solid software fundamentals. You’ll learn fast, collaborate with global teams, and turn clever ideas into customer-ready demos.

Qualifications

• A degree in Computer Science, Electronics, AI/ML, Software or a related engineering field.
• Genuine fluency with AI/ML concepts and tools — Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow/ONNX, and comfort experimenting with LLMs and modern AI workflows.
• Solid software fundamentals (C/C++ a plus), version control (git), and curiosity about how software meets hardware.
• A builder's mindset: you learn by doing, you're not afraid of the unknown, and you like solving problems that don't have a textbook answer. Great communication, because you'll be explaining clever things to smart people, including customers.

Responsibilities

• Get hands-on fast with our S32N MPUs and AI toolchains — preparing, optimising and deploying ML models onto real automotive hardware.
• Prototype new AI use-cases (on-device assistants, anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, etc.) and turn them into demos that win designs.
• Write clean, modern software; and use AI coding assistants, CI/CD and automation as everyday tools, not afterthoughts.
• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with global customers and our worldwide engineering teams, becoming the technical voice that shapes how our AI silicon gets used.
• Bring fresh thinking. If there's a faster, smarter, more automated way; then we want you to find it and share it!
