Sr. Embedded Software Engineer - Automotive Technologies
Confidential Opportunity An established Tier One automotive supplier seeks a Sr. Embedded Software Engineer to join their team in Bay City, Michigan, on a contract-to-direct-hire basis. This confidential employer is developing next-generation vehicle electrification and ADAS systems, and your work will directly impact brand-new products for major OEMs. If you thrive in low-level embedded C and AUTOSAR environments, this role offers a clear path to permanent employment and a chance to shape cutting-edge technology. This is not just another sustaining role. Here, you will step into a position where your work will define brand-new product lines for a global Tier One supplier that is winning long-term contracts with top automotive OEMs. The engineering team is nimble and focused on breaking new ground in vehicle electrification and drive-by-wire systems. You will be surrounded by resources, support, and a leadership team that actually listens to your ideas and wants you to succeed. Your day-to-day will involve full life-cycle development of cutting-edge embedded software. You will translate complex Simulink models into clean, efficient Embedded C, then rigorously test and integrate your code using AUTOSAR frameworks and CAN diagnostic tools. Every project is a clean-sheet design, not an update of legacy systems, so your problem-solving skills will be exercised at the highest level. The impact of your work will be visible on the road, in advanced driver-assistance systems and electrified powertrains that set new standards for safety and performance. The ideal candidate is a deeply technical professional who thrives at the driver level, writing code that directly controls hardware. You have at least seven years of experience, know AUTOSAR inside and out, and can hit the ground running with CANalyzer, CANoe, and related tools. More importantly, you bring a genuine curiosity and a collaborative spirit that make you a perfect fit for this close-knit, engineering-first culture. If you have a stable work history and can point to successful launches of new automotive technologies, you could be the one they are looking for. This opportunity comes with a strong support system—full benefits from day one, relocation assistance, and a clear path from a W2 contract to a permanent direct-hire position. The Bay City/Midland area offers an outstanding quality of life, with excellent schools, dining, and recreation, all at a cost of living that lets your salary go further. If you are ready to put your expert-level C and AUTOSAR skills to work on the future of mobility, apply today and let’s start a conversation about how you can be part of this exciting journey.
