Safety Design Software Architect

Job DescriptionDUTIES: Develop the Solution Context and Intent at the Software level by defining requirements and communicating the solution vision. Analyze technical trade-offs, determine the primary components and subsystems, identify the interfaces and collaborations between them, define Nonfunctional Requirements (NFRs), guide Enablers through the Program and Solution Kanban systems, and work with Product and Solution Management, System Safety, and Suppliers to help ensure the allocated System Safety requirements and strategy are met. Provide technical training and establish effective mechanisms of knowledge sharing. Lead high severity safety-related investigations and work with other Safety Design Software Architects to resolve safety issues. Analyze the full control system and visualize what issues and faults can occur and build designs that mitigate those risks. Participate with system safety engineering in planning and defining high-level design of the product solution; explore solution alternatives. Operate within the business constraints when analyzing the impact of design decisions. Architect the solution for scalability, maintainability, and testability. Define subsystems and their interfaces, allocate responsibilities to sub systems, understand solution deployment and communicate requirements for interactions with the solution context. Derive lower-level system requirements from the System Safety requirements for function or interfaces. Support the ARTs during Planning and Implementation with technical guidance, review system architecture designs in all areas of ART planning. Assist in Backlog refinements to identify safety critical features and functions. Ensure proper prioritization of safety critical requirements. Ensure adherence to Development Vehicle Usage Levels (DVUL) and Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) requirements and timelines. Plan and develop the architectural runway for the SW Safety strategy. Create enabler features, stories aligned to program and solution roadmap and safety cases. Advocate for enabler requirements supporting the system safety strategy. Provide and monitor the necessary adherence to appropriate design guidelines for safety critical software. Support built in quality and continuous compliance. Perform software safety analyses based on derived requirements allocated by system safety. Establish system safety requirements generated by the above analysis or decomposed from the allocated System Safety requirements. Define safety critical calibrations jointly with System Safety and Calibration Technical Specialist. Participate in the definition of product development requirements. Ensure proper completion of all necessary business records and documentation. Participate and validate system demonstration adherence to system safety requirements. Prioritize, along with other Safety Design System Architects, the scrum team’s backlog.Define deliverables for scrum team development of system safety monitors.
