We’re re-examining our vehicles and what a vehicle means in the emerging world of automation, connectedness, electrification and the shared economy. New ideas, new technology, and new approaches to mobility are our business. Join a team of next generation thinkers.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Hybrid and Electrified powertrains support Jaguar Land Rover’s objective of delivering clean and efficient products to our customers.

In the Software Engineer role, you will play a key part in delivering this software.

Our controller models are developed using a Model Based Development tool chain, incorporating auto-code technology. As a Software Engineer, you will work with our controls and software engineers and our suppliers in the software integration and build process to efficiently deliver high quality software to the validation team.

Your experience in embedded software development will enable you to quickly master our tool chain and processes, help us to develop them further, and give you the skills to debug when things go wrong.

Key responsibilities will also include building content and input artefacts for embedded control system software builds in the delivery ‘stream’ and undertaking control system software builds for prototype and production using semi-automated and CI pipeline.

You will work with the control system function engineers and test engineers to deliver high quality software on time ensuring commonality wherever possible with other applications. Review, manage and fix control system bugs found during the build process, following up with root cause analysis to develop lessons learnt to improve future quality, and support regular project meetings with the status of embedded control development and software integration & build activity.
