Job Title: Software Development Engineer – Thermal Management Systems
Location: Small Heath
Full-Time | Permanent
Industry: Automotive / Industrial Engineering / Embedded Systems

About Us

Our client are a forward-thinking engineering company at the forefront of thermal management innovation. Their systems power next-generation HVAC, powertrain, and battery solutions across automotive and industrial sectors. They are now seeking a Software Development Engineer to join our dynamic Systems and Controls team and help shape the future of intelligent thermal control.

Role Overview

As a Software Development Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in the development, maintenance, and enhancement of embedded software solutions. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams to design and deploy high-quality applications that support our industry-leading products.

This role you will need to demonstrate your experience in manufacturing software relating to products rather than full stack development.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement control strategies and algorithms for vehicle HVAC, powertrain, and battery thermal systems.

  • Capture functional and software requirements.

  • Design high-level control systems and implement them in embedded environments using C/C++ (bare-metal and RTOS).

  • Validate software at both unit and system integration levels.

  • Maintain and document codebases using GitHub, ensuring reusability and reliability.

  • Participate in design and code reviews.

  • Support customer proposals, project planning, testing, audits, and technical documentation.

  • Mentor junior engineers and share technical knowledge.

    Key Skills & Experience

  • Proficient in C/C++ for embedded, real-time systems.

  • Strong understanding of electronics, electrical circuits, and embedded communication protocols (CAN, LIN, RS232, etc.).

  • Familiarity with cybersecurity (UNECE R155/R156) and functional safety (ISO 26262).

  • Experience with high-level languages (e.g., Python, C#) is a plus.

  • Knowledge of engineering processes (Waterfall, V-model, FMEA).

  • Understanding of electromechanical systems (motors, servos, relays).

  • Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.

  • Experience in automotive or industrial thermal systems preferred.

  • Familiarity with railway software standards (BS EN 50657, BS EN 50155) is advantageous.

    Core Competencies

  • Analytical thinking and attention to detail.

  • Strong project and time management skills.

  • Excellent communication and documentation abilities.

  • Innovative and proactive problem-solving mindset.

    Why Join Us?

  • Work on cutting-edge thermal management technologies.

  • Be part of a collaborative and innovative engineering team.

  • Opportunities for career growth and professional development.

  • Competitive salary

Why Cyber Security Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Cyber security used to be viewed primarily as a technical discipline: firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection, penetration testing. In the UK today, it’s far broader. Organisations now face complex legal frameworks, ethical dilemmas, human-behaviour risks, communication challenges & usability hurdles. This shift means cyber security careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. From protecting NHS patient records to defending financial services, securing supply chains & safeguarding national infrastructure, cyber security now touches every sector. Employers increasingly want professionals who understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design alongside traditional technical skills. In this article, we’ll explore why UK cyber security careers are expanding in this way, how these five disciplines shape the profession, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to thrive in this new landscape.
