Embedded Controls Engineer, Body Controls

What you'll do...

• Specify, design, and implement software architecture for body controls firmware, taking ownership of the software codebase from initial prototype bring-up to high-volume production.
• Create control/estimation algorithms for various body control features like window control, closure system, and lighting.
• Lead the design and integration of various body controls hardware components on electrical test assets such as benches, bucks, labcars, and vehicles.
• Collaborate with software integration teams to bring up core functions and broadcast software level requirements to electrical hardware and systems teams.
• Understand functional safety principles and participate in functional safety analyses of complex vehicle subsystems.
• Develop comprehensive test plans and perform thorough testing to validate firmware functionality, stability, and performance under various conditions, including low power modes.
• Spearhead body controls feature development, working cross-functionally with hardware, software, architecture, and many other teams to author feature boundary diagrams and validation strategies.
• Author subsystem block diagrams and lead subsystem reviews through all vehicle program development phases.
• Early phases of firmware development will focus on hardware validation, labcar testing, and setting up the automation framework for unit, SIL and HIL testing.

What you have...
