You will collaborate across systems, software, mechanical, safety, and production engineering teams to develop innovative, cost-effective, and functionally safe battery solutions from concept through production. What You'll Do (Impact Areas) Functional Safety Engineering Lead the execution of hardware functional safety activities in accordance with ISO 26262 Part 5 and related standards. Develop and maintain hardware safety requirements, technical safety concepts, and safety architectures for low- and high-voltage battery systems. Perform ASIL decomposition, common cause analysis, and hardware safety analyses. Support Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF) activities where applicable. Safety Analysis & Verification Conduct qualitative and quantitative safety analyses, including: HARA FMEA FMEDA Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) Common-mode and reliability analyses Define and execute hardware verification and validation (V&V) strategies, plans, and test methods. Develop Functional Safety portions of DVP&R and system-level validation activities. Lead peer reviews, confirmation reviews, and technical assessments of safety work products. Hardware & Systems Development Define electronic hardware requirements and specifications for BMS products. Support implementation of hardware safety design best practices throughout the product lifecycle. Collaborate closely with systems, software, and hardware engineering teams to ensure functional safety compliance is integrated into product development. Contribute to the development of safety-critical electronic architectures from concept through production launch. Cross-Functional Collaboration & Program Execution Partner with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver robust, high-quality products on schedule and within budget. Collaborate with Systems Safety Teams to align functional and technical safety requirements. Support continuous improvement initiatives related to functional safety processes, tools, and methodologies. Communicate technical findings, risks, and recommendations clearly to stakeholders across the organization. What Success Looks Like Successful delivery of ISO 26262-compliant hardware safety work products for BMS platforms. Functional safety requirements are effectively implemented, verified, and validated across development phases. Safety analyses and reviews are completed accurately and on schedule with minimal rework. Strong collaboration across systems, software, hardware, and manufacturing teams. Contribution to successful product launches with robust and reliable safety architectures. Proactive identification and mitigation of functional safety risks. Recognized as a trusted technical leader and collaborative engineering partner. Core Competencies Functional Safety Engineering (ISO 26262) Systems Thinking & Analytical Problem Solving Hardware Safety Architecture Development Risk Assessment & Safety Analysis Cross-Functional Collaboration Requirements Management Verification & Validation Planning Technical Communication & Documentation Attention to Detail & Quality Focus Continuous Improvement Mindset Emotional Intelligence & Team Collaboration Project Execution & Time Management What You Bring (Qualifications) Required Qualifications Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical degree. 6+ years of professional experience in electronics functional safety engineering. Detailed training and hands-on experience with ISO 26262 Functional Safety Engineering. Experience developing Functional Safety work products in accordance with ISO 26262. Strong experience performing: HARA FMEA FMEDA Fault Tree Analysis Common Cause Analysis Experience with ASPICE processes and methodologies.
