Embedded Software Engineer

eLeapPower is a rapidly growing power electronics supplier in the world of automotive electrification. Our products achieve cost, size, and weight savings without compromising on performance. We are headquartered in Toronto, Canada and have additional offices and manufacturing in China to help us serve the largest and fastest growing electrification markets globally.

eLeapPower is looking for a driven, experienced embedded software engineer to join our team in Toronto. This person will be responsible for contributing to building, testing, and validating cutting-edge R&D and customer products and will be expected to lead certain aspects of software development. Given our strong focus on system integration, many projects involve working within a unified codebase that supports both traction and charging systems, requiring cross-domain understanding and collaboration.

Experience developing embedded software for power electronics in the automotive or an adjacent industry is a must. We build physical products and so testing is a requisite part of the job; in-person attendance is required as a result.

What You’ll Do 

·       Design and develop real-time embedded software in C for integrated automotive power electronics.

·       Program and debug multi-core, ARM-based microcontrollers (Cortex-M/R) and their on-chip peripherals (e.g. ADC / PWM / CAN / SPI / Ethernet).

·       Work closely with controls and hardware engineers to conceptualize, design, test and integrate new features.

·       Take ownership of key project deliverables.

·       Break down project requirements into traceable software requirements.

·       Evaluate and test new software tools and processes to streamline the development workflow.

·  Contribute to a culture of technical excellence, accountability, and practical problem-solving.

What You’ll Bring  

·       A degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, or a related field.

·       5 years of experience programming in C/C++ and at least one scripting language (e.g., Python).

·       Experience developing hard real-time software (e.g. power electronics, automotive ADAS).

·       Proven experience working in an Agile environment.

·       Familiarity with automotive software standards (MISRA C, ISO 26262, etc) and additional EV-specific standards (ISO 15118, IEC 61851, etc.) is an asset.

·       Previous experience with Rust is an asset.

·       Knowledge of standard automotive communication protocols (CAN, FlexRay, Ethernet) and associated debugging tools (e.g. Vector CANalyzer).

·       Strong knowledge of Git.

·       Familiarity with continuous integration / continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows.

·       Ability to work independently in a lean, fast-paced team.

· Willingness to work through challenging technical problems and support critical project deadlines when needed.

What We Offer  

·       Competitive compensation & benefits package.

·       Employee stock options plan.

·       Be part of and help shape a dynamic team in a key growth stage of the company.

·       A well-stocked snack cupboard and enough health and wellness benefits to help you work it off.

·       Meaningful work that makes a difference in the world.
