Embedded Software Engineer – Guidance & Steering Systems

We are seeking a skilled Embedded Software Engineer to support Gen 1 guidance and steering systems. This role focuses on maintaining and enhancing mature embedded software products used in vehicle guidance and steering controllers. The ideal candidate will have strong low-level programming expertise and experience troubleshooting complex embedded systems, with the ability to independently triage, analyze, and resolve software issues.

You will collaborate with global engineering teams across the U.S. and Europe while contributing to critical product stability and feature development efforts.

Perform triage and root-cause analysis on software issues reported from multiple sources.

Troubleshoot and resolve defects in embedded systems, particularly within guidance and steering controller software.

Work through and manage a backlog of tickets, delivering timely bug fixes and updates.

Develop and implement new features and enhancements for existing embedded software platforms.

Conduct data analysis to diagnose issues and identify performance improvements.

Collaborate with distributed teams, including engineering groups in Sioux Falls and the Netherlands.

Support testing and validation efforts, including participating in on-site testing when required.

Strong programming experience in C and C++.

Expertise in embedded systems development, debugging, and maintenance.

Experience working with mature/legacy embedded software products.

Ability to independently perform triage, debugging, and issue resolution.

Experience with CAN (Controller Area Network) protocols and messaging.

Background in automotive, heavy equipment, or off-highway vehicle systems.

Familiarity with embedded control systems (vehicle-level controls vs. display or UI systems).
