Here, progress is an expectation - for you, your team, and the world. As a global market leader, we’ll give you what you need to make it happen. It won’t always be easy, growing takes grit. But at ABB, you’ll never run alone. Run what runs the world.\nThis Position reports to:\nTalent Acquisition LeadYour role and responsibilities:\nIn this role, you will have the opportunity to contribute significantly to successful project results in technology, software, product, and/or solution development, as well as associated Intellectual Property (IP). Each day, you will act as the first point of contact in Research and Development for specific product-related issues and maintenance. You will also showcase your expertise by identifying, proposing, and implementing innovative solutions.\nYou will be mainly accountable for:\nDesign, develop and maintain embedded software using C, following coding standards and established software architecture.\nDevelop and debug software components for real-time embedded systems using RTOS concepts, including tasks, scheduling, synchronization and inter-task communication. \nApply sound software design principles and object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts where appropriate to build modular, reusable and maintainable code.\nWork with Linux fundamentals, including command-line tools, process/thread concepts, build environments and basic system debugging. Participate in requirements analysis, software design, implementation, code reviews, unit testing, integration testing and release activities. \nDiagnose software issues using debugging tools, logs, traces and target-hardware observations; perform root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions. \nIntegrate software with hardware peripherals, device drivers, communication interfaces and other product components.\nDevelop and execute unit, integration and regression tests, including boundary cases, error handling and timing-related scenarios. \nMaintain technical documentation, design descriptions, test evidence and software change records in line with product development processes. Collaborate with system, hardware, verification and global engineering teams to deliver robust software on schedule.\nQualifications for the role:\nBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics / Electrical / Computer Science / Embedded Systems or related field with 4-5 years of relevant experience in embedded software development for real-time or resource-constrained systems.\nStrong hands-on programming skills in Embedded C, including pointers, memory management, data structures, bitwise operations and low-level debugging.\nGood understanding of RTOS concepts such as task/thread scheduling, priorities, interrupts, semaphores, mutexes, queues and timing constraints. \nSolid understanding of object-oriented programming concepts, including encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism and abstraction; C++ exposure is desirable.\nWorking knowledge of Linux fundamentals, shell commands, processes, threads, file systems and software build/debug workflows. \nExperience with embedded debugging tools, compilers, build systems, version control and source-code review practices.\nUnderstanding of microcontrollers, peripheral interfaces, device drivers and hardware-software interaction, including GPIO, ADC, PWM, timers and interrupts. Familiarity with communication interfaces and protocols such as UART, SPI, I²C and Wi-Fi; TCP/IP basics are an advantage. \nFamiliarity with unit testing, integration testing, regression testing and software quality practices.\nA future opportunity\nThis role is part of our talent pipeline, which means it’s not currently open, but we’re always looking for curious minds, bold thinkers, and people who want to make an impact.\nClick Apply to express your interest and be considered for future opportunities that match your experience and aspirations.\nAt ABB, we welcome people from all backgrounds and believe that diverse perspectives help us build a cleaner, smarter future.\nApply today or visit https://www.abb.com to learn more about how we help run what runs the world.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4144,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Power Grid","Industrial Automation","Industrial Robotics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-27T23:18:52Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.631,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand,attention"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/abb-embedded-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/abb-embedded-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T02:14:01Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3297,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":44977},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=44977"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fabb-embedded-software-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fabb-embedded-software-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fabb-embedded-software-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/abb-embedded-software-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fabb-embedded-software-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3366400}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"abb.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3366400},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
