About the role
- Braking Systems Integration Engineer to join our Vehicle System Integration engineering team.
Responsibilities
- Lead the design and controls development of a full brake system for an autonomous vehicle platform.
- Develop system design, integration, and validation test plans to ensure optimal braking performance, safety, and efficiency, balancing vehicle attributes.
- Participate in technical design reviews and supplier evaluations, ensuring verification and validation plans are comprehensive and well-executed.
- Develop System FMEAs, diagnostic strategies, and fault reactions to ensure safe and robust brake system operation across all driving conditions.
- Lead root cause analysis and issue resolution, including data analysis, log reviews, and hardware investigations.
- Author system technical specifications, system requirements, and interface control documents for the brake system.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical, electrical, firmware, and controls teams to define system requirements and ensure seamless subsystem integration.
Requirements
- Experience with brake system modeling and simulation tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, or similar).
- Deep knowledge of developing system and subsystem requirements, with proficiency in tools like IBM DOORS, Siemens Polarion, or similar.
- Knowledge of automotive electrical architectures, including communication protocols (CAN/LIN/Ethernet) and defining physical and functional interfaces.
- Knowledge of automotive diagnostics (UDS) routines and functional safety standards (ISO 26262).
- Familiarity with vehicle-level integration and validation processes, including HIL testing and on-vehicle performance evaluation.
- Proven experience in vehicle dynamics and control theory as applied to brake system design.
- Deep knowledge of developing automotive systems using model-based design processes.
- Experience developing System FMEAs and defining diagnostic strategies and fault reactions for safety-critical systems.
- Bonus Qualifications
- Experience in Model Based System Design process.
Nice to have
