Software Engineer

GE Vernova’s interview process typically starts with a timed online coding assessment focusing on data structures and algorithms, followed by a technical interview that probes OOP concepts, database handling, and embedded system basics. The final HR round assesses cultural fit, communication skills, and career aspirations. Preparation should include solving medium‑level coding problems and revisiting core Java/Python fundamentals.

Round 1: Online coding test (Python/Java) → Round 2: Technical interview (OOP, DB, embedded concepts) → Round 3: HR interview (fit, motivations, salary expectations)

The Hyderabad office serves as a hub for application development, embedded software, and data‑driven product enhancements, providing fresh talent exposure to world‑class technologies and cross‑functional teams. The Software Engineer role is designed for candidates who have at least one year of hands‑on development experience and a solid grounding in object‑oriented programming. As a member of the Applications and Software business area, you will partner closely with embedded hardware engineers to design, develop, test, and maintain reliable software components that run on power equipment. The position blends traditional application development with the nuances of embedded systems, giving you a unique opportunity to influence both software quality and hardware performance. Key Responsibilities: 1. Design and implement modular, scalable software modules in Python and Java. 2. Develop and maintain database schemas and queries for Timeseries, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB. 3. Write unit, integration, and system test cases to ensure code reliability. 4. Debug complex issues across software‑hardware interfaces and provide root‑cause analysis. 5. Participate in code reviews, enforce coding standards, and mentor junior developers. 6. Collaborate with product, hardware, and QA teams to define requirements and acceptance criteria. 7. Document design specifications, API contracts, and test procedures. 8. Contribute to Agile ceremonies – sprint planning, daily stand‑ups, retrospectives. 9. Stay updated with IEC‑61850 standards and HVDC domain knowledge to enhance product features. 10. Support post‑deployment monitoring and continuous improvement initiatives. Tech Stack: Python, Core Java, OOP, Timeseries DB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Git/SVN, JIRA, Confluence, Agile/Scrum, IEC‑61850 (preferred). The role also offers exposure to data‑science and machine‑learning pipelines, allowing you to experiment with predictive analytics for power systems. Growth Path: Starting as a Software Engineer, you can progress to Senior Engineer, Technical Lead, and eventually Architect or Product Manager, depending on your interests in deep technical expertise or cross‑functional leadership.
