Job Description

As a Principal Safety Engineer, you will be the technical authority for safety across our Autonomous Product. You will own the end-to-end safety case - from hazard identification and system design through to regulatory approval - ensuring our systems meet the highest standards of functional safety, SOTIF, and cybersecurity. You will shape how safety is embedded across the organisation, influencing system architecture, engineering practices, and decision-making at every level. You will work closely with engineering, product, and regulatory stakeholders to define what "safe enough" means - and ensure it is rigorously achieved and demonstrated.

Job Responsibility

  • Own and maintain the system-level safety case for the ADS, covering ISO 26262, ISO 21448 (SOTIF), ISO/SAE 21434 and more
  • Lead hazard analysis (HARA), ODD definition, and safety architecture across different products
  • Define and drive verification and validation strategies for different deployments
  • Establish and govern safety processes, including safety reviews, KPIs, and release approvals to fleet
  • Ensure compliance with regulatory frameworks (e.g. UN WP.29, EU AV legislation) and support type approval readiness
  • Collaborate across teams to embed safety principles into system design, development, and deployment

Requirements

  • Extensive experience (10-12+ years) in automotive, robotics, or aerospace systems engineering, including leadership in safety-critical domains
  • Strong expertise in functional safety (ISO 26262), SOTIF (ISO 21448), and automotive cybersecurity (ISO/SAE 21434)
  • Proven track record delivering safety cases and supporting certification or type approval for complex systems
  • Deep understanding of autonomous driving system architecture (perception, sensor fusion, planning, control)
  • Proven record or familiarity with Safety conformity of end to end based Autonomous drive. e.g ISO/PAS 8800
  • Familiarity with tools such as DOORS, Polarion, Codebeamer, or similar requirements and safety tooling

What we offer

  • Get a rewarding salary and stock option package
  • Enjoy the flexibility of working in a hybrid mode with a minimum of 2 days in the office each week to foster strong connections and teamwork
  • Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks
