What is the difference between Contract Automotive Embedded Software Engineer vs Contract Automotive Software Developer?

AspectContract Automotive Embedded Software EngineerContract Automotive Software Developer
CredentialsRelevant engineering degrees, embedded systems certificationsComputer science or software engineering degrees, coding certifications
Work EnvironmentAutomotive industry, embedded systems development, real-time environmentsSoftware development teams, automotive or tech companies, application or system software
Employer & Industry UsageAutomotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, embedded system manufacturersAutomotive manufacturers, tech firms, software service providers

The main difference is that Contract Automotive Embedded Software Engineers focus on developing software specifically for automotive embedded systems, often working with real-time hardware. In contrast, Contract Automotive Software Developers may work on broader software applications within the automotive industry, including user interfaces or backend systems. Both roles require strong programming skills, but their focus areas and environments differ.

Job Title: Embedded Software Engineer
Job Category: Engineering
Time Type: Full time
Minimum Clearance Required to Start: None
Employee Type: Regular
Percentage of Travel Required: Up to 10%
Type of Travel: Continental US
* * *
The Opportunity:
We are seeking an Embedded Software Engineer with expertise in embedded systems, reverse engineering, and cybersecurity. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on technical ambiguity, enjoys uncovering how complex systems really work, and excels in low-level software and hardware analysis. You'll play a key role in evaluating security and robustness of proprietary embedded systems-developing custom tools, uncovering vulnerabilities, and contributing directly to national cybersecurity efforts.
  • Challenging, impactful work at the intersection of embedded systems, telecom, and cybersecurity.
  • A technically driven environment that encourages innovation and deep technical exploration.
  • Opportunities to publish research, present findings, or contribute to classified mission success.
  • A team culture that values technical mastery, curiosity, and mentorship.
  • Support for continued learning, certifications, and reverse engineering challenges.

Responsibilities:
  • Reverse engineer embedded firmware, device drivers, and proprietary telecom systems to identify undocumented functionality and potential security issues.
  • Perform firmware extraction, binary diffing, static and dynamic analysis, and hardware-assisted debugging.
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to access debug interfaces (e.g., JTAG, SWD), extract flash images, and inspect hardware state.
  • Develop custom tools and scripts (e.g., in Python3) to automate analysis workflows such as firmware unpacking, protocol decoding, and memory analysis.
  • Investigate edge-case behaviors, error-handling routines, and low-level system initialization logic to reveal attack surfaces.
  • Document findings clearly and translate technical complexity into actionable reports for security and engineering teams.

Qualifications:
Required:
  • Must be a US Citizen and the ability to obtain a security clearance.
  • 5+ years of professional experience in embedded software development with reverse engineering skills.
  • Proficiency in C, C++, and assembly programming for embedded architectures such as ARM, MIPS, x86, or RISC-V.
  • Experience with RTOS environments, including VxWorks and embedded Linux device driver development.
  • Understanding of embedded software IPC mechanisms, such as message queues, shared memory, and semaphores.
  • Familiarity with embedded hardware interfaces, including SPI, I2C, PCIe, UART, and memory-mapped I/O.
  • Proficient in Python3 for scripting and automation.
  • Hands-on experience with disassembly and decompilation tools (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra, Binary Ninja) and debugging tools (GDB, JTAG).
  • Knowledge of embedded security concepts, including secure boot, firmware encryption, and hardware authentication.

Desired:
  • An active security clearance is highly desired.
  • Experience in cybersecurity research, vulnerability discovery, or exploit development in embedded or telecom environments.
  • Familiarity with PowerPC assembly, including QUICC-based systems.
  • Experience with ARM assembly and debugging of SoC-based embedded platforms.
  • Understanding of Linux kernel internals and/or VxWorks internals.
  • Hands-on experience with FPGA-based systems, including those with embedded ARM or PowerPC cores.
  • Background in embedded hardware design and debug, including the use of oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and firmware extraction techniques.
  • Ability to build tools and infrastructure to support analysis workflows in a team setting.
