Job Description

Lead IoT Embedded Software Engineer


At EnerSys, we don’t just build batteries ; we power the systems behind the global energy transition.

As electrification accelerates across industries, we are scaling next-generation energy storage and IoT platforms used worldwide.


Now, we’re looking for a hands-on Software Engineering Lead ready to build, lead, and shape what comes next.

If you enjoy working at the intersection of embedded systems, cloud, and real-world impact: this role is for you..


Why join EnerSys?

  • Be part of the global shift toward sustainable energy and EV adoption
  • Work on real-world industrial IoT systems , not just prototypes
  • Collaborate across international teams with global visibility
  • Take ownership of systems that matter — from embedded devices to cloud platforms


The impact you will make

You will play a critical role in designing and delivering the software powering next-generation energy storage systems.

From embedded Linux devices to cloud-connected APIs, your work will ensure that our IoT platforms are secure, scalable, and ready for global deployment.


What you will do

  • Lead a team of software engineers through Agile sprint cycles
  • Design and develop embedded software (C/C++/Python) on Linux (ARM)
  • Build and integrate APIs, backend services, and IoT cloud solutions
  • Drive technical decisions and architecture improvements
  • Debug and prototype on hardware platforms
  • Ensure high standards of security, performance, and reliability
  • Collaborate with global teams across engineering and product


What will help you succeed

We’re looking for experienced engineers who:

  • Have a strong background in IoT or embedded software engineering
  • Understand distributed systems, APIs, and cloud-native architectures
  • Are comfortable working across embedded + backend environments
  • Can translate complex requirements into robust technical solutions
  • Bring a hands-on mindset with leadership capability
  • Thrive in Agile and international environments


Nice to have:

  • Embedded Linux (Yocto), Docker, Azure IoT
  • Industrial protocols (MQTT, Modbus, WebSocket)
  • Hardware interfaces (CAN, SPI, I2C, RS485)
  • Experience in energy systems or industrial IoT


Why this role is exciting

  • You’ll work at the intersection of hardware, software, and cloud
  • Your code will power critical infrastructure in the energy transition
  • You’ll have real ownership , not just implementation tasks
  • You’ll influence how systems are designed — not just built


What we offer

  • Flexible working model (remote/hybrid options)
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge IoT platforms with global impact
  • Strong learning culture: courses, conferences, and development support
  • International collaboration with talented engineering teams
  • High ownership and autonomy in technical decisions


Diversity & Inclusion

At EnerSys, we believe diverse teams build better solutions. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
