Job Description

Position Description:

We are seeking a highly technical Feature Systems Software Systems Developer to lead the definition, architecture, and development of next-generation vehicle features from concept through production. This position is focused on early-stage systems engineering and feature development, not primarily software testing or validation. The successful candidate will translate customer and business needs into system requirements, functional specifications, logical architectures, and software implementation requirements while working across software, electrical, mechanical, and vehicle integration teams. Responsibilities include developing system architectures, defining feature behavior, writing engineering requirements, creating System Boundary Diagrams, DFMEAs, verification plans, functional safety assessments, cybersecurity assessments, and supporting software implementation using Model-Based Systems Engineering methodologies. The ideal candidate has demonstrated ownership of complex vehicle feature development, has led cross-functional engineering decisions, and has successfully guided features from concept through production launch.

Skills Required:
Systems Engineering, Technical Requirements, Software Development Lifecycle

Experience Required:
Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or related discipline.
Minimum 3 years of Automotive Systems Engineering experience.
Minimum 3 years of Software Engineering experience supporting complex embedded systems.
Demonstrated experience writing engineering requirements, functional specifications, and implementation specifications.
Experience creating DFMEAs, System Boundary Diagrams, and other engineering quality documentation.
Strong understanding of the Systems Engineering V-Model.
Experience developing vehicle features from concept through production. Strong understanding of vehicle electrical systems including networking, wiring, power distribution, body systems, chassis systems, and CAN communication.
Experience collaborating across multiple engineering organizations to resolve complex technical issues.

Must Haves :

• Automotive Systems Engineering is now explicitly required.
  
• Embedded-systems software experience is explicitly required.
  
• DFMEA and System Boundary Diagram experience are explicitly required.
  
• Systems Engineering V-model experience is explicitly required.
  
• Concept-to-production vehicle-feature experience is explicitly required.
  
• Functional safety/cybersecurity moved to preferred.
  
• Python/GitHub became much less explicit.
  
• The revised description explicitly says this is not primarily a software testing/validation role.
  
• The revised version puts greater emphasis on feature ownership, logical architecture

****Candidates who do not have the Must haves need not apply****

Education Required:
