Senior Software Engineer

• Location: UK Engineering Center

The Senior Software Engineer is responsible for leading hybrid projects; designing, developing and installing software solutions; Testing and documentation of software systems, including embedded applications support. Engineers working on our hybrid engine projects, will be developing hybrid control algorithms to work with internal combustion engines, including cranking, generation and boost.

This is a hybrid position, requiring flexibility to go into the office three times a week, or as needed. Our UK Engineering Center is located in North East England.

What you’ll do:

• Independently design, code and debug embedded software for real-time

control applications.

• Work closely with diesel engine manufactures to integrte Curtis motor

controllers onto diesel engines.

• Lead hybrid projects to ensure hybrid requirement functions are captured,

developed and validated.

• Work with motor control engineers to realize effective and efficient real-time

control applications.

• Follow software development cycles including software requirements capture

and verification of software to those requirements.

• Carry out unit testing of functions.

• Engineering support of product development and continuation team.

• Work with electronic design team to optimize logic and microprocessor circuit

implementations. Follow and document engineering procedures.

• Assist other departments in the resolution of design related problems that

arise during production.

• Mentor software engineers.

What you’ll need to be successful:

• Bachelors or Masters degree plus 5 years experience in embedded, real-time

software
