As Senior Functional Safety Engineer you will be involved in all levels of product development from participating in strategic planning for the group, partner/suppliers’ selection, review Functional Safety Statement of Work (SS-SOW), initial concept design and stages of development through to production launch. It will involve interfacing with a variety of groups including electrical engineering and mechatronics engineering as well as customers and suppliers / technical partners.

In this position you will be involved in detail of safety design, requirement review and support teams to do Functional Safety Concept(FSC) and Technical Safety Concept (TSC) at system, SW and HW levels which included refinement of requirement to HW and SW and ensure bidirectional traceability.

The main responsibilities entailed in this role are:

• Planning and scorekeeping of safety test activities (Safety plan)

• Drive the development of functional and technical safety concepts within the function, system, subsystem, software, and hardware

• Lead functional safety engineering activities for product development teams

• Co-developing Impact analysis and making recommendations for inclusion of accurate safety criteria in system design and procedures to control or eliminate hazards.

• Develop technical work products specific for functional safety requirements, e.g., item definition, criticality analyses, other safety analyses, and test coverage analysis for safety requirements

• Support the implementation of functional and technical safety requirements in all parts of the vehicle system design

• Support the development of verification and validation strategies within the subsystems, software, and hardware

• Develop and integrate Functional Safety standards and industry common practices into corporate processes according to ISO 26262.

• Ensure technical specifications and other work products are prepared, and stored correctly, and revisions are managed and released in timely manner

• Ensure that safety plan activities meet program timing.

Delivers according to defined methods, expected inputs and outputs. Lead system engineering in a technical team and play an active role in the delivery. Drive the work from an operational and short-term perspective. Integrate deliveries from others. Responsibility for securing quality and readiness before release. Participate in specification implementation and verification loops to secure system aspects of the solution. Secure that system and non-functional requirements are correctly implemented. Implement system architecture strategies and roadmaps up to the delivery in the end product. Lead concept investigations with teams. Steer exploration of alternatives to establish a system level concept together with teams. Actively support product manager in clarifying needs of capabilities/enablers and breaking down those to features/enablers. Contribute to the development of technical roadmaps and system architecture roadmaps. Lead concept investigation with teams and take the concept for approval through different decision forums. Request technical concepts and system solutions. Manage the interfaces and non-functional requirements within the scope of, for example, agile release train.
