At BOLD, we design and build the next generation of advanced battery systems for applications where performance, safety and reliability are critical — from motorsport and hypercars to aerospace, marine and defense.

As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will design, develop and optimise software for our Battery Management Systems (BMS) and related control applications. You’ll work side by side with electrical, hardware and systems engineers to deliver robust, high-performance embedded solutions that push technology forward.

If you’re passionate about embedded software, energy systems and solving complex engineering challenges, this is your chance to make a tangible impact on the future of electrification.

What You’ll Do

• Design and develop embedded software for BMS and other battery-related control systems.
• Implement control algorithms for charging, discharging, and state estimation.
• Integrate software and hardware working with cross-functional engineering teams.
• Validate and debug embedded code using lab instrumentation and HIL environments.
• Ensure compliance with automotive and defense software standards (ISO 26262, MISRA-C, DO-178C or similar).
• Document, test, and optimise code for reliability and performance.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of our embedded platform and internal tools.
