Embedded Software Engineering Team Lead

Quick Facts

• Role: Team Lead, Embedded Software Engineering

• Focus: Real-time embedded firmware for motor control applications (traction inverters, auxiliary inverters, battery chargers)

• Location: Białystok, Poland (on-site)

Description

You will lead and mentor a team of embedded software engineers delivering real-time firmware for motor control. The role covers firmware architecture, implementation, and verification, including motor-control strategies such as FOC/vector control and reliable communication/diagnostics. You will coordinate with systems, test, commissioning, and integration teams to ensure compliance with railway standards and safety/real-time constraints.

Responsibilities

• Lead, develop, and mentor embedded software engineers

• Plan workload, allocate resources, and create the team technology roadmap

• Define and improve development processes based on the V-model and align them with other departments

• Own the architecture, implementation, and verification of real-time motor-control software (FOC/vector control, torque/speed strategies)

• Develop highly reliable C firmware for TI C2000 and ARM Cortex platforms

• Supervise AC motor control algorithms, including sensorless control, modulation strategies, and coordination with power electronics

• Ensure robust implementation of communication and diagnostics: CAN, TRDP, SPI, I2C, plus required interfaces for railway inverters

• Oversee software verification, Hardware-in-the-Loop testing, commissioning activities, and documentation across all project stages

• Coordinate with systems, test, commissioning, and vehicle-integration engineers

• Ensure software architecture compliance with railway standards, safety requirements, and real-time limits

• Represent the team as a technical expert in client projects, technical reviews, audits, and discussions

Requirements

• Higher education in control engineering, computer science, embedded systems, electrical engineering, or a related field

• Multi-year experience in embedded software development for power electronics, motor control, or real-time systems

• Team management experience or clear leadership potential in embedded/control engineering

• Expert knowledge of C for real-time embedded systems

• Very strong understanding of asynchronous motor-control algorithms, inverter power-stage topologies, and embedded control platforms

• Knowledge of communication interfaces and industrial communication principles (CAN, TRDP, SPI, I2C)

• Fluent English

Benefits

• Employment contract type: UoP

• Gross salary range: 18,500 – 21,000 PLN

• Work mode: On-site in Białystok, Poland
