Embedded Controls Engineer

The way a vehicle moves — how it responds to driver intent, how it manages lateral and longitudinal forces, and how naturally it connects the driver to the road — defines its character. It is the DNA of the vehicle.

We are building the next generation of centralized vehicle motion control systems: advanced embedded control software that unifies vehicle dynamics, improves integration across systems, and creates a more intuitive, confident, and engaging driving experience.

We are looking for a highly skilled Embedded Controls Software Engineer to help define, develop, and deliver these next-generation control systems. This role is ideal for an engineer with deep experience in embedded controls, safety-critical systems, vehicle dynamics, and hands-on development of math- and physics-based control strategies.

You will work at the intersection of embedded software, electrical systems, vehicle dynamics, functional safety, and systems integration — helping shape how future vehicles feel, respond, and perform.

Responsibilities

What you'll do...

• Develop and implement control strategies for advanced vehicle motion functions, including lateral and longitudinal vehicle dynamics.
• Design and mature embedded control algorithms that translate driver intent into natural, precise, and predictable vehicle behavior.
• Support the development of a centralized vehicle motion control architecture by consolidating and integrating vehicle dynamic functions across multiple domains.
• Collaborate with internal engineering teams and external suppliers to define functions, interfaces, and requirements for third-party components.
• Partner with software integration teams to bring up core functions and translate software-level needs into electrical hardware and system requirements.
• Participate in functional safety analyses for complex vehicle subsystems and apply safety-critical development principles throughout the design lifecycle.
• Develop comprehensive test strategies and execute validation activities to verify firmware functionality, robustness, stability, and performance across operating conditions.
• Create subsystem block diagrams, define interfaces, and lead subsystem design reviews across all vehicle program development phases.
• Work with system integration leads to capture component-level requirements, provide technical expertise during sourcing discussions, and review and approve device transmittals.
• Support early-phase firmware development activities, including hardware validation, labcar testing, prototype bring-up, and automation framework development for unit, SIL, and HIL testing.
• Debug complex system issues across software, hardware, networks, and vehicle-level integration environments.
