• We expect a thorough understanding of verification and validation practices, embedded software development, testing, and associated tools.
• We require knowledge of hardware design failure modes, manufacturing and assembly operations, and engineering procedures.
• We need familiarity with automotive safety standards and safety-critical design principles, including ISO 26262 and ASIL.
• We value experience with system-level integration, including sensors, processors, and communication protocols.
• We require experience in DFM, DFA, and DFT practices.
• We are seeking strong problem-solving, analytical, communication, and influencing skills.
• We expect proven ability to lead complex programs in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment.
• We require the ability to legally operate a motor vehicle.
• Preferred qualifications include a masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Chemical Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics.
• Additional preferred experience includes 5 to 10 years in embedded controls hardware.
• We prefer experience with our component specification and release process, vehicle dynamics, electronic chassis systems, CAN, GMLAN, LIN, OBD-II diagnostics, and DFSS Black Belt certification.

• We design propulsion controller electrical hardware from schematic capture through worst-case analysis, PCB layout, bring-up, debugging, signal and power integrity review, verification testing, manufacturing support, and production launch.
• We develop propulsion controller hardware from concept through launch while meeting cost, timing, quality, and safety targets.
• We work closely with software, mechanical, semiconductor, manufacturing, validation, quality, and supplier teams to ensure smooth integration and successful delivery.
• We partner with contract manufacturers to move products from prototype builds to mass production while protecting quality, cost, and schedule.
• We create and review electrical schematics and PCB layouts.
• We support the evaluation and development of new ICs for next-generation propulsion controller architectures.
• We perform detailed hardware analysis, including worst-case, thermal, signal integrity, and power integrity studies.
• We execute hardware bring-up across power supplies, SoCs, MCUs, network devices, solenoid and valve controls, and instrumentation.
• We lead design for manufacturing, design for assembly, and design for testing activities.
• We drive validation and testing of hardware components and systems to ensure high reliability and strong performance.
• We define requirements and maintain validation support equipment.
• We build test plans and procedures, and collaborate with team members to carry out testing.
• We develop test equipment for bench-level root cause analysis in validation and warranty investigations.
• We troubleshoot hardware issues, identify root causes, and implement corrective solutions.
• We support manufacturing partners in resolving production issues.
• We develop requirements that enable third-party manufacturing to build the controller.
• We participate in design reviews and provide constructive technical feedback.
• We lead or support DFMEA and PFMEA activities while incorporating lessons learned and best practices.
