SHAPE THE FUTURE OF MOBILITY FROM DAY ONE.
This position is part of our Advanced Safety & User Experience segment.
Summary:
- Electrical engineer responsible for ECU electrical design
- Design for EMC
- Worst case circuit analysis
- DFMEA
- ECU validation oversight and failure investigation
- Electrical component selection
Responsibilities:
- Work with a cross-functional team consisting of mechanical, systems, software, and manufacturing engineering to analyze customer electrical design requirements and develop electrical design implementations for sensors with an embedded microprocessor architecture.
- Select components that will meet the requirements, perform analysis of the capability of these circuits, and define the characteristics of the design that will be needed by an Electrical CAD operator to create a multi-layer PCB design.
- Coordinate building of prototypes, and test the prototype modules using various lab techniques to determine if they meet electrical and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements per customer specifications. Use lab equipment and electronic techniques/tools to verify that the circuit design matches the performance within the capability tolerances, and also verify the failure behaviors according to DFMEA analysis.
- Create and release the necessary design documentation (including schematic capture and bill of material, and assembly drawings) along with other required process and customer documentation.
- Work with suppliers, component engineers, and purchasing specialists to select and validate components that will be reliable, available, and resilient to supply chain disruptions.
Other Requirements:
- On-site 5 days per week. Occasional remote work to support after-hours or early-morning meetings.
- Ability to travel internationally (primarily to the US for training or validation testing activities).
- Proficiency with common office computer software (MS Excel, Word, Outlook).
- Proficiency in English (written & spoken).
Must Haves (Basic Qualifications):
1. Circuit Design (analog) - w/ schematic capture/understanding.
2. Circuit Simulation Experience (Saber or similar)
3. Circuit Analysis Experience (Excel, Mathcad, Maple, or similar)
4. DFMEA familiarity (analysis & bench verification experiments)
5. Serial communication fundamental understanding (CAN, LIN, I2C, SPI)
6. Use of oscilloscopes, function generators, multi-meters, etc. (understand aliasing & noise concepts)
7. Good written communication skills and ability to understand & describe facts vs. conclusions/opinions.
8. Ability to synthesize information to draw conclusions, make informed decisions & recommendations.
9. Structured problem solving skills (Define, Measure, Analyze, Implement, Control)
10. Understanding of Electromagnetic Interference Testing, EM noise generation, filtering, and electrical transient response.
11. Functional Safety familiarity (Fault Tree Analysis, ISO26262, HW metrics, Medini or similar tools)
12. Understanding of statistical concepts (MSE, ANOVA, SPC, Reliability & Confidence
13. Soldering capability (& other lab skills)
