Senior / Principal Software Engineer - Calibration & Controls

Wrexham | Permanent

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Embedded Software Engineer to join a market-leading engineering business developing advanced transmission control systems for off-highway vehicles.

We're keen to speak with both Senior and Principal level engineers, with the role and package tailored to your experience.

The Role

You'll join a collaborative Electronics & Controls team, developing embedded software for transmission control systems and supporting products from concept through to validation. Key responsibilities include:

  • Designing and developing embedded software in C.
  • Producing high and low-level software designs from functional requirements.
  • Working within a structured V-model software development process.
  • Supporting verification and validation activities, including automated testing.
  • Carrying out code reviews and ensuring compliance with software quality and functional safety standards.
  • Working closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams throughout the development lifecycle.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
