Job Description:
The Vehicle Electrical Systems Integration team delivers a validated vehicle including firmware (FW) and hardware (HW) packages to our robot platform. The team is also the first stop for triaging, identifying, and investigating CAN, LIN, and electrical issues in the field and during vehicle bring-up.
As a Vehicle Systems Stability Engineer, you will be on the frontlines keeping our robots healthy. You will be responsible for the initial review of issues related to vehicle domains (ECUs, chassis, electric powertrain, HV charging, thermal system, brakes, steering, suspension, and lighting as examples). This issue identification is enabled by reviewing vehicle level CAN logs, investigating the issue, providing insight into the potential root cause, and then working with the responsible team to deliver a solution. You will also drive teams to identify actions that could prevent an issue from occurring again. This is a highly cross-functional role as you will be working with various HW and FW engineering teams, operations teams, and the vehicle and program management office.
We are looking for an engineer that is passionate about electric vehicle architecture, autonomous driving, has strong problem-solving skills, and has a commitment to deliver on time.
