• Design vehicle control software on rapid prototyping toolchains, test algorithms on bench setups, HiL systems and vehicle platforms, and draft requirements for your algorithms
• Ensure software maturity and traceability with professional documentation and collaboration with requirements engineers
• Create and track software release plans as well as testing activities to achieve continuous integration of software products in vehicle and field testing

What we're looking for:

• Master’s degree in Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics or similar, ideally with focus on automotive engineering
• 5+ years of experience in designing electrical systems for automotive platforms
• Demonstrated ability to develop and implement full time critical systems
• Competency in vehicle algorithm design such as vehicle-related control algorithms, state machine design
• High proficiency in model-based software engineering (Matlab Simulink)
• Familiarity with rapid prototyping hardware such as dSpace Autobox or comparable tools (Speedgoat, ETAS) and accompanying software such as ControlDesk
• Demonstrated ability to meet ambitious timelines with critical deliverables
• Experience with standards and practices such as ISO26262, MISRA-C and AUTOSAR
• Familiarity with automotive embedded systems. Experience with CAN, LIN analysis, and debugging tools (PCAN, CANalyzer, CANape, etc.)
