Job Summary

At Emerson, we help the world run safer and smarter. As a global leader in automation, our Analytical Instruments organization develops advanced technologies and solutions that safeguard industries and keep critical systems running.

Join our Liquid Analysis team in Pune, India, as a Senior Embedded Software Engineer — where you'll work on both new product development and sustaining engineering for process analytical equipment that protects water quality, supports life sciences, strengthens industrial safety, and serves industries worldwide.

If solving complex engineering problems with software excites you, this is an opportunity to build real embedded products, work closely with software, hardware, systems, and test engineers, and see your work come together in the complete product - become part of a team that’s growing, learning, and focused on delivering results!

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Lead the design and development of embedded software subsystems, platform capabilities, and major technical efforts for new products and significant product enhancements.
• Own subsystem-level technical direction, including requirements, architecture, interfaces, design decisions, integration strategy, technical risks, and overall technical quality.
• Break down complex subsystem work into features and executable tasks, guide estimates and sequencing, identify dependencies and risks, and help engineers manage and maintain their work in Azure DevOps.
• Lead technical, architecture, and design reviews; communicate decisions and tradeoffs clearly and ensure actions are carried through implementation, integration, verification, and release.
• Guide and mentor engineers through technical coaching, design feedback, peer reviews, and difficult problem solving without formal supervisory responsibility.
• Solve complex embedded software, hardware/software integration, and system-level problems while remaining hands-on with development, debugging, testing, and root-cause analysis where needed.
• Collaborate with global technical and feature leads and cross-functional teams to align subsystem plans, schedules, estimates, risks, interfaces, and sprint execution.
• Strengthen engineering practices aligned with our SDLA and IEC 62443-4-1 and evaluate technologies, tools, automation, and AI-assisted approaches that improve product and engineering capability.

Who You Are

You take on the challenge of unfamiliar tasks.

You deal constructively with problems that do not have clear solutions or outcomes.

You grow from hardships and negative experiences

You partner with others to get work done.
