• Strong experience in C programming for embedded systems (mandatory)
• Experience working with AUTOSAR Classic or similar embedded platforms
• Understanding of embedded constraints (memory, performance, real-time behaviour)
• Automated testing (unit and integration level)
• Git workflows (branching, rebasing, code reviews)
• Familiarity with build systems (e.g. CMake)
• Experience with CI pipelines and static analysis tools
• Basic understanding of ASPICE processes (SWE.1-SWE.6)

Who you are

• Passionate about testing, technology, and creating great user experiences.
• Structured, analytical, and detail oriented.
• A team player with a positive, can-do attitude.
• Curious, communicative, and able to explain complex issues clearly.
• Self-driven and adaptable - willing to take on what's most important for the team's progress.

Nice to have

• Experience with C++ (optional) in embedded or automotive context
• ISO 26262 / Functional Safety knowledge (ASIL-rated development)
• Experience with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, etc.)
• Knowledge of MISRA C or other coding standards
• Experience with tools such as CANoe, CANalyzer or similar
• Python scripting for automation or tooling
• Experience with RTOS environments

Job responsibilities

• Design and implement embedded software primarily in C on AUTOSAR Classic platforms
• Develop functionality for anti-theft alarm systems, including sensor handling, event detection, and system responses
• Work with system signals, ECU communication, and state management within vehicle security functions
• Deploy software on the vehicle master and support releases tailored for specific vehicle variants
• Monitor and analyse fault reports from on-field testing, including internal test vehicles and customer cars, and drive root cause analysis and resolution
• Write and maintain automated tests at different levels (unit, integration, system)
• Apply static analysis tools and coding standards to ensure safety and quality compliance
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to continuous improvement of development practices
• Collaborate in CI/CD pipelines where builds and tests are triggered on each change
• Contributing to continuous improvements in how we ensure Software Quality on Master

As an Embedded Software Engineer within Exterior Functions, you will be part of a team developing software for features such as anti-theft alarm systems. These functions are responsible for detecting events, managing signals from sensors, and ensuring the vehicle reacts correctly and reliably in security-related situations.

The work is primarily based on AUTOSAR platforms, where efficient and robust C programming is key. Many of the components you will work with are safety-related and classified according to ISO 26262 meaning the software you develop has a direct impact on product safety and quality.

The team works in close collaboration with system designers, function owners and testers, creating a highly cross-functional and international environment.
