Systems Engineer, Motion Controls Safety

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Perform safety analysis and define performance requirements for our motion planning and control systems as our Operational Design Domain (ODD) grows, covering different road/environmental conditions and degraded…
• Build and extend fault injection simulations to determine how quickly the vehicle must detect and respond to faults in new ODDs and on next-generation platforms, with the goal to inform safety requirements and…
• Support simulation pipelines that verify AI driving safety, including setting requirements for the vehicle dynamics models they rely on.
• Partner with software, hardware and verification and validation teams to ensure that requirements are met through rigorous SIL, HIL and on-vehicle testing.
• Leverage the latest AI and LLM tools to accelerate the analysis work and automate processes to reduce repetitive manual work.

Job requirements

• Master’s degree or higher in Robotics, Automotive, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with 4+ years of relevant experience.
• Hands-on experience with vehicle motion control systems development.
• Experience building or using simulations to analyze vehicle dynamic behavior and inform motion control requirements.
• Strong analytical skills in quantitative analysis and modeling, performance metrics definition, and system-level trade-off analysis.
• Excellent technical communication and documentation abilities, with demonstrated success working with cross-functional teams in complex technical environments.
• Experience with autonomous vehicle development or similar complex robotics systems.
• Familiarity with requirements management tools (e.g., Polarion, DOORS).
• Experience with vehicle dynamics modeling and simulation-based safety verification.
