Senior Embedded Software Engineer (m/f)

Technologies we use

Your responsibilities

• Develop and implement real‑time embedded control software for traction and auxiliary converters, focusing on advanced motor‑control algorithms and power‑electronics control.
• Program, debug, and optimise embedded firmware in C/C++ for TI C2000, ARM Cortex, and other microcontroller platforms used in Stadler Converter systems.
• Design, refine, and validate field‑oriented control, vector‑control, and sensorless‑control algorithms for AC motors in traction applications.
• Integrate communication interfaces such as CAN, TRDP, SPI, I2C, and support system‑level diagnostics and embedded communication handling.
• Use MATLAB/Simulink and other modelling tools to support algorithm development, simulation, and verification activities.
• Collaborate closely with system engineers, test engineers, and vehicle control unit software development team to ensure seamless integration of software with converter hardware and control architecture.
• Participate in hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing, commissioning, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of converter‑control software.
• Work in line with STACON processes and contribute to their optimization
• Prepare technical documentation, contribute to design reviews, and support customer projects where deep software expertise is required.
• Support the training of junior software developers through knowledge transfer

Our requirements

• Degree in Control Engineering, Computer Engineering, Embedded Systems, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Several years of experience in embedded software development for motor control, power electronics, or real‑time control systems. Strong alignment with traction‑converter or industrial‑drive applications is a plus.
• Expert knowledge of C for embedded systems; experience with C++, Python, or scripting tools is beneficial.
• Strong understanding of asynchronous motor ‑control algorithms, power‑converter topologies, and microcontroller architectures (TI C2000, ARM Cortex).
• Familiarity with communication protocols (CAN, TRDP, SPI, I2C) and embedded communication stacks.
• Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for modelling and control‑algorithm development is an advantage.
• Ability to read and understand electrical diagrams and perform software‑related measurements on converter hardware.
• Fluent in English.

Optional

• German is an advantage.

What we offer

• Enjoy stable, long‑term employment based on a full employment contract.
• Benefit from flexible working hours with a convenient start window between 7:15 and 9:00.
• Take part in a wide range of development projects that offer real opportunities to grow and expand your expertise.
• Access an attractive benefits package, including private medical care, sports card, holiday subsidies and Christmas vouchers.
• Participate in company integration events held twice a year, strengthening teamwork and collaboration.
