Our Systems Engineering team works together to blend software and hardware systems in groundbreaking new ways. We set the standards that ensure our vehicles run smoothly and keep passengers safe, then design and perform the tests that validate that performance. We're looking for collaborative teammates who'll help us maintain our focus on teamwork and are passionate about advancing their career.

In this hybrid role, you will report to a Systems Engineering Manager.

You will:

• Be responsible for Vehicle platform Infotainment systems, Body controls (working internally with our Product team and externally with O.E.M base vehicle partner) and communication networks - writing requirements for our O.E.M partners to set up Infotainment systems, body control and network communication interfaces for S.D.S. You will work with the O.E.M's and Functional Systems Engineers (e.g. Power, Infotainment systems, Thermal, Motion Controls) to define the Infotainment systems, body control and communications network architecture together with functional safety requirements
• Write detailed requirements for Waymo embedded software adjacencies to implement Infotainment systems, body control and communication interfaces to the vehicle platform
• Conduct redundancy analysis of communications networks, parameter definition to satisfy performance and functional safety requirements. Ensure the safety critical Infotainment systems, body control's such as redundant exterior lighting is designed and implemented in collaboration with all our important partners.
• Help create Verification and Validation (V&V) plans, analyze test results for Infotainment systems, body controls and platform communications across multiple platforms and prototype phases. You will plan and complete tests, analyze test data, analyze field issues, and understand and resolve defects by partnering with the operations team.
• Work with embedded software teams during implementation to ensure requirements will be met. Write design documents for new architecture / implementation, review with software teams and incorporate updates.
• Manage delivery timing of feature sets and updates to vehicle prototype fleet software and troubleshooting issues to achieve the required capability set for each vehicle

You have:

• 5+ years experience with knowledge of vehicle communication networks and protocols (Physical and Application layer, e.g. CAN, FlexRay, LIN, Ethernet, DBCs, etc) and an understanding of the embedded systems that are controlled by these networks. Also, an understanding of how to interface to Infotainment systems and body control functions
• Appreciation of Infotainment systems, body controls and communication networks in safety critical systems and the importance of fail-safe vs. fail tolerant, required timing.
• The ability to create & achieve targets and requirements with O.E.M's and our adjacencies and create and complete D.V.P's as part of the role. A bonus will be somebody who understands the automotive development process and phases (e.g. M1, VB, TT etc.)

We prefer:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Communications Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Physics or similar
• At least 3 years experience in an automotive (or similar industry) communication networks, Infotainment systems, body controls and software role delivering hardware or software
• Working knowledge of vehicle communication network systems (CAN, Flex-Ray, LIN, Ethernet), Infotainment systems, and body control systems such as doors, interior/exterior lighting, windows, seats, switch-gear.
• Experience in fail-safe and fail-tolerant system design
• Experience mapping out design and requirements for complex vehicles, to ensure gaps and flow-downs are covered
• Prioritize on root-cause analysis for solving problems
