About the role
- Define and document system specifications and SW/HW interfaces while integrating platform architecture to meet customer requirements. Work across Software, Hardware and Test teams to manage requirements, perform system analyses, and support validation and integration testing.
Responsibilities
- Define and develop the project-specific System Specification, ensuring the “what” is clearly defined for the implementation teams.
- Apply and integrate our existing platform architecture (hardware and software blocks) to meet specific customer project requirements.
- Define and document robust SW/HW interfaces in accordance with our platform rules to minimize integration friction.
- Gather, analyze, and manage system requirements throughout the V-Model development lifecycle using our toolchain.
- Conduct system-level analyses (e.g., DFMEA) to identify and mitigate potential design risks early in the process.
- Create and maintain essential technical documentation, including system specifications, design documents, and customer-facing user guides.
- Serve as the primary technical interface for the project team (Software, Hardware, Test) to resolve technical ambiguities.
- Collaborate closely with validation teams to ensure a clear understanding of system behaviors and support integration testing.
Requirements
- University degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- 3–5 years of industry experience in Systems Engineering, preferably within the automotive sector (BMS experience is a strong plus).
- Deep understanding of the V-Model and Systems Engineering standards (ASPICE, ISO 15288).
- Familiarity with Functional Safety (ISO 26262) is highly desirable.
- Proficiency with requirements management and architecture tools.
- Structured and communicative, able to move projects from ambiguity to clarity and work effectively in cross-functional teams to ensure the logical and physical architecture meets customer needs.
