Original job description

Job Title: Embedded Software EngineerJob DescriptionThis role focuses on designing, implementing, and maintaining embedded C software for onboard signalling and train control systems. The engineer develops software for critical safety-related functions, including automatic train protection, communications handling, timing synchronization, diagnostics, and fault management, while ensuring deterministic execution, robust error handling, and compliance with real-time and safety lifecycle requirements for railway control and protection systems. The position involves close collaboration with multidisciplinary engineering teams and significant contribution to safety documentation, system architecture, and fault-tolerant design strategies appropriate for train safety systems.Responsibilities

Design, implement, and maintain embedded C software for onboard signalling and train control systems.
Develop software for safety-related functions such as automatic train protection, communications handling, timing synchronization, diagnostics, and fault management.
Work closely with onboard hardware, including processors, I/O modules, communication buses, and safety-related peripherals.
Ensure deterministic execution and robust error handling in a real-time embedded environment.
Develop software in accordance with safety lifecycle requirements for railway control and protection systems.
Contribute to safety documentation, including software requirements, architecture descriptions, and detailed design specifications.
Implement defensive coding techniques and fault-tolerant strategies suitable for train safety systems.
Collaborate closely with project engineering, systems engineering, signalling design, hardware, verification and validation (V&V), and safety assurance teams throughout the development lifecycle.
Write clear, testable, and traceable software requirements for embedded control functions.
Contribute to system architecture trade-offs involving performance, safety, maintainability, and certification impact.
Participate in structured, audited, and configuration-controlled development processes to ensure high-quality and traceable software deliverables.

Essential Skills

Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Engineering or a closely related discipline.
At least 58 years of professional software development experience using C.

Strong understanding of real-time concepts, including scheduling, interrupts, concurrency, memory constraints, and hardware interaction.
Hands-on experience developing embedded software that interfaces with processors, I/O modules, communication buses, and safety peripherals.
Experience working in structured, audited, configuration-controlled development environments.
Proven ability to write clear and comprehensive software requirements.
Ability to ensure deterministic behavior and robust error handling in real-time systems.
Experience applying defensive coding practices and fault-tolerant design strategies in safety-critical applications.
