Job Summary
Ford Off Campus Drive 2026 – full job details
Ford Off Campus Drive 2026 brings back Ford’s entry-level Software Engineer opening, this time inside Enterprise Technology. The team supports Ford’s finance back end, including the general ledger, month-end and year-end close, and the move of data feeds to a new SAP S/4 GL process. Your main job is to automate the repetitive parts of that work with software bots.
The Ford Off Campus Drive 2026 role suits freshers who enjoy problem solving more than pure product coding. You will study how a business process runs, spot steps a bot can take over, build and test that bot, and then keep it healthy in production. You also help with audit requests and incident tickets so the finance systems stay stable.
Check before you apply: the title says “Software Engineer”, but most of the work is RPA (robotic process automation) and finance-system support, not product development. The posting also lists only “India” as the location. Ford’s India technology centre is in Chennai, so expect a Chennai on-site role and confirm with HR.
What you will do in the Ford Off Campus Drive 2026 role
- Review business operations and identify steps that can be automated
- Build automation workflows using PEGA RPA and C#
- Run test scripts, find errors in bot runs and fix basic bugs
- Write solution design documents (SDD) and step-by-step user manuals for each bot
- Monitor deployed bots and help troubleshoot failures
- Support financial close (monthly, quarterly, year-end), tech refresh, audit requests and incident or problem tickets
