Systems Engineer

Our Autonomous Vehicle client is looking for a System Integration Engineer in Foster City, CA.

Description:
Client is looking for a system integration engineer to lead the integration of complex electrical systems into autonomous driving robots. In this role, you will be responsible for synthesizing vehicle product requirements into functional system requirements. You will be part of a team that develops, validates, and continuously improves the robot’s electrical architecture to production maturity. You will achieve this by engaging cross-functional teams while holding yourself, teammates, and the larger organization accountable for meeting requirements. You will be the expert on a handful of systems on the vehicle, enabling you to deep dive into functional integration topics that bring hardware to life.

Responsibilities:

1. Collaborate across mechanical, electrical, firmware development, and firmware validation teams to understand new component level hardware/software changes and lead the integration into future builds/milestones.
2. Create system (and in some cases, sub-system) requirements based on vehicle level requirements, and drive the implementation (including timing) of these requirements.
3. Align deliverables across Client, including supplier FW delivery, Client FW delivery, to deliver the functionality at the appointed milestone(s).
4. Create Client networking interfaces for next generation connected vehicle applications.
5. Engage the design and development engineers across the engineering organization to ensure the relevant subsystems are designed to fulfill system requirements, interfaces and interactions to achieve specific vehicle functions.
6. Create System FMEAs, develop diagnostics, and fault reactions to ensure safe vehicle operation.
7. Collaborate with validation teams to ensure test coverage is implemented for system requirements.
8. Lead triage of issues, including log reviews, code reviews, and HW investigation.
9. Support initial system bring-up and integration tests at the vehicle level to validate design assumptions.

Qualifications:

1. BS or higher in electrical/electronics/systems engineering or related field.
2. 5+ years of experience in Propulsion (EV), Body Electronics (Automotive exterior lights, Passive safety, Thermal), systems architecture, systems integration, or related field.
3. Experience in electrical systems requirements creation, and proficiency of requirements management software.
4. Experience debugging complex electrical, electronic, and software-controlled systems.
5. Experience diagnosing CAN, LIN, or Ethernet network issues.
6. Experience in MATLAB, Python, C++ or equivalent tools for modeling and analysis.
7. Able to communicate complex technical issues in simple, definitive and accurate terms.

Bonus Qualifications:

1. Experience with Vector tools.
2. Experience with Functional Safety for Road Vehicles (ISO 26262).
