AGCO is looking to hire candidates for the position of Sr. Engineer - Model-based Development (MBD) 

 

The Senior Software Engineer – Model-Based Development is responsible for designing, validating, and integrating advanced control and plant models for agricultural machinery—including powertrain, aftertreatment, hydraulic, and electric systems—using MATLAB/Simulink, Stateflow, and Simscape.  

This role leads complex model-based software development projects, transforms legacy C code into scalable, maintainable solutions, and develops simulation environments (MIL, SIL, HIL) for rigorous testing and validation.  

Key responsibilities include hands-on embedded software development (Embedded C, firmware integration, hardware-software interfacing), close collaboration with global engineering teams, and delivery of robust, production-ready code for real-time and safety-critical applications.  

The role ensures compliance with ASPICE, MISRA, and ISO 25119/26262 standards, and involves technical documentation, mentoring junior engineers, leading technical reviews, and driving continuous improvement.  

The position is part of AGCO’s Global Capability Center in Pune, supporting the company’s mission to advance sustainable agriculture through innovative technology. 

 

Your Impact 

Design, develop, and refine advanced control and plant models for agricultural machinery—including powertrain, aftertreatment, hydraulic, and electric systems—using MATLAB/Simulink, Stateflow, and Simscape, ensuring precise system integration and compliance with industry standards. 

Develop, maintain, and enhance simulation environments (MIL, SIL, HIL); conduct system-level and hardware bench testing to rigorously validate model and software performance, driving continuous improvement based on test results. 

Deliver robust, production-ready embedded software through hands-on development in Embedded C, firmware integration, and hardware-software interfacing, ensuring compliance with ASPICE, MISRA, ISO 25119/26262, and leveraging industry-standard verification tools. 

Collaborate with global and cross-functional teams across time zones to clarify technical requirements, prepare and maintain high-quality technical documentation, and ensure traceability and effective communication throughout the project lifecycle. 

Influence technical direction and foster knowledge sharing by leading technical reviews, providing peer guidance, sharing best practices, and supporting continuous improvement and innovation across the team and organization as an individual contributor. 

 

Your Experience and Qualifications 

Relevant Degree: Bachelor’s or master’s in Computer Science, Electronics, Electrical, Mechatronics, or a closely related technical field. 

Extensive Experience: At least 7 years of professional experience in embedded software development—ideally within the agricultural, automotive, or off-highway machinery sectors, and with real-time or safety-critical platforms. 

Model-Based Design Expertise: Advanced skills with MATLAB/Simulink, Stateflow, and SimScape for developing and validating control and plant models. 

Embedded Software Development: Strong hands-on proficiency in Embedded C, including integration, simulation (MIL, SIL, HIL), and hardware-software interfacing. 

Autonomy & Global Collaboration: Demonstrated ability to work independently, take initiative, communicate effectively within cross-functional, international teams, and document technical work clearly.
