Embedded Software Engineer @ eLeapPower | Real-time Control and Software

Embedded Software Engineer

eLeapPower is a rapidly growing power electronics supplier to the world of automotive electrification. Our products achieve cost, size, and weight savings without compromising on performance. We are headquartered in Toronto, Canada and have additional offices in China to help us serve the largest and fastest growing electrification markets globally.

eLeapPower is looking for a driven, experienced embedded software engineer to join our team in Toronto. This person will be responsible for contributing to building, testing, and validating cutting‑edge R&D and customer products and will be expected to lead certain aspects of the software development. Given our strong focus on system integration, many projects involve working within a unified codebase that supports both traction and charging systems, requiring cross‑domain understanding and collaboration.

Experience developing embedded software for power electronics in the automotive or adjacent industry is a must. We build physical products and so testing is a requisite part of the job; in‑person attendance is required as a result.

• Design and develop embedded C software for integrated automotive power electronics
• Program and debug multi‑core ARM based microcontrollers for real‑time mission critical applications
• Work closely with controls and hardware engineers to conceptualize, design, test and integrate new systems
• Take ownership of key project deliverables
• Break down project requirements into traceable software requirements
• Evaluate and test new software tools (and associated hardware) to increase performance and improve processes

• Degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, or related engineering degree
• 5 years of experience in C / C++ and at least one scripting language (e.g., Python)
• Experience developing real‑time software for mission critical applications (power electronics, ADAS, safety)
• Proven experience working in an Agile environment
• Familiarity with automotive software standards (MISRA C, ISO 26262, etc) and additional EV‑specific standards (ISO 15118, IEC 61851, etc.) is an asset
• Knowledge of standard automotive communication protocols (CAN, CAN FD, Flex Ray) and CAN debugging tools (Vector CANalyzer)
• Strong knowledge of Git
• Familiarity with continuous integration / continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows preferred
• Ability to work independently in a lean, fast‑paced team

• Competitive compensation & benefits package
• Employee stock options plan
• Opportunity to help shape a dynamic team in a key growth stage of the company
• A well‑stocked snack cupboard and enough health and wellness benefits to help you work it off
• Meaningful work that makes a difference in the world
