This position represents a key technical role within product development. The objective is to maintain a holistic overview of complex embedded and system topics, to develop robust and practical solutions, and to act as an integration and translation interface between software, hardware, system engineering, project management, and management.

The role makes a significant contribution to stability, solution capability, and resilience in critical project phases and escalation situations.

Your main tasks:

Technical Responsibility

• Development of embedded firmware and system software for intelligent electronic components in accordance with ASPICE and MISRA guidelines
• Analysis, definition, and implementation of system, software, and interface requirements across multiple technical levels
• Creation of software and test specifications as well as execution of unit and integration tests (C/C++)
• Contribution to architecture and platform decisions (embedded systems, AUTOSAR, BSW, CDD)
• Close cooperation with hardware development to align HW/SW interfaces
• Contribution to system-level cybersecurity topics for embedded ECUs, including threat awareness, secure architecture principles, and integration of cybersecurity requirements into system and software concepts (e.g. UNECE R155, ISO/SAE 21434)

Systemic & Solution‑Oriented Work

• Holistic analysis of complex technical and organizational challenges
• Development of non‑standard and pragmatic solution approaches for new or critical issues
• Ensuring stable and high-quality solutions under demanding boundary conditions, including timing and result fulfillment requirements.

Communication & Interface Function

• Translation of complex technical content for non‑expert audiences (e.g. project management, management, customers)
• Direct technical coordination with customers, suppliers, and internal stakeholders
• Active participation in reviews, decision processes, and technical escalations

Ownership & Project Responsibility

• End‑to‑end ownership for defined technical topics or sub‑projects
• Proactive identification of risks, dependencies, and required actions
• Contribution to the continuous improvement of development processes, tools, and standards

Your ideal profile:

Technical Qualification

• University degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a comparable field
Long‑term (
• 7 years) experience in embedded software / firmware development
• Very good knowledge of C/C++, software architecture, and embedded systems
• Experience with ASPICE, MISRA, configuration, and version management
• Knowledge of AUTOSAR (BSW, RTE, SW‑C, CDD) and corresponding toolchains (e.g. Vector DaVinci) is an advantage

• Basic to advanced understanding of automotive cybersecurity concepts on system and ECU level and their impact on architecture, requirements, and customer interfaces

• Understanding of hardware fundamentals, ability to read schematics, and use of measurement equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer)

Methodological & Personal Competencies

• Strong system‑level thinking capability
• High solution and result orientation
• Very good stress resilience and robustness in critical project phases
• Strong ownership mindset and intrinsic sense of responsibility
• Clear, target‑group‑oriented communication at both technical and management levels
• Independent, structured, and goal‑oriented working style

Communication & Mobility

• Very good English language skills, written and spoken (German is an advantage).
• Willingness to travel occasionally to TE locations, customers, and suppliers
