Safety Systems Engineer developing safe autonomous systems for Woven by Toyota. Collaborating with teams on safety requirements and coding, while focusing on functional safety engineering.
Responsibilities
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (autonomy software, data platform, operations, AI architecture) to define and refine safety requirements and system architectures that prioritize reliability and fault tolerance
Design and implement validation processes and metrics to evaluate autonomous system behavior under degraded or fault conditions, including creating simulation scenarios and test automation scripts
Resolve integration conflicts between safety requirements and functional objectives by working hands-on with software and systems engineers through design reviews and iterative prototyping
Contribute directly to coding in Python for data analysis, simulation scripting, and automated testing of safety features, with occasional C++ integration work
Document safety concepts, test results, and compliance evidence to support internal reviews, customer deliverables, and third-party safety assessments
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or related discipline, or equivalent work experience
5+ years in safety-critical automotive, aerospace, or robotics systems in a production environment
Practical proficiency in Python for safety-related data analysis, simulation scripting, automated test/report generation, and designing evaluation methods for system validation
In-depth working experience with ISO 26262 and familiarity with SOTIF (ISO 21448) in real-world projects
Strong cross-functional communication and documentation skills to convey technical issues precisely and factually
Nice to Haves: Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or related field
Experience in developing software components that are designed for integration within autonomous driving systems or similar real-time robotics systems, or in integrating such components into complete systems
Proficiency in C++ (C++14 or later) for safety-critical embedded software development
Knowledge of safety analysis methods such as FMEA/FMEDA, and FTA.
Experience with requirements management processes and maintaining traceability across the system lifecycle
Experience in safety case development or safety argumentation for Level 4 autonomous driving systems
