The intelligence only ships if the system underneath it is safe by design — and that safety has to be carried all the way down, from the vehicle-level safety concept into the embedded platform's requirements, architecture, and interfaces. As a Systems Engineer on our Embedded Systems team, you'll own that translation. Our overarching systems and safety group defines the vehicle-level safety concept — the hazard analysis, the safety goals, the functional safety concept. You'll be their embedded counterpart: taking that concept and decomposing it into an embedded architecture and technical safety requirements that our electrical engineering and embedded software groups can build against. You'll live on the left side of the ISO 26262 V at the embedded level, turning a functional safety concept into technical requirements and a hardware/software architecture the whole team can trust — and you'll be the person who keeps the embedded org fluent in the wider world of automotive standards. You Will… Partner with the systems and safety group. Take the vehicle-level safety concept, safety goals, and functional safety requirements as your inputs, and feed embedded expertise back into their hazard analysis and concept work. You're the bridge between their concept and our hardware and firmware. Own the embedded technical safety concept. De
