The SSLE is a dynamic individual contributor with recognized expertise, responsible for requirements and associated work throughout the entire vehicle development lifecycle, including requirements definition, design and implementation, testing, and problem resolution. You will work closely with multi-functional stakeholders (system engineers, software developers, testers, etc.) to support innovative technology development.
Job Responsibility:
Create and maintain Sub-System Technical Specifications (SSTS) and other requirements (Component Technical Requirements Specifications-CTRS, serial data, diagnostics, U-services, etc.) for applicable subsystems and ART software solutions using requirements management software (e.g. DOORS Next Gen, DOORS)
Create and maintain Behavior Technical Specifications (BTS) for applicable software solutions, following Behavior Driven Development (BDD) principles. This includes leading triad meetings and discussions with key stakeholders
Develop and maintain blueprints and/or functional block diagrams for assigned software solutions
Design and Sustain Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) diagrams (e.g. Block Definition Diagram, Use-case Diagram, Activity Diagram, Internal Block Diagram) for responsible software solutions using Rhapsody
Establish and Uphold Subsystem/Solution Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEAs) using the FMEA Integration Tool (FIT). Support the development and linking of Software Component FMEAs, Process FMEAs, and system FMEAs, when appropriate, by providing context of software related failure modes and contributions, with a focus on high severity items
Collaborate cross-functionally with other SSLEs to ensure robust integration of subsystems/solutions, including failure mode discussions for interfaces between your subsystem/solutions to other subsystems/solutions
Create and update Calibration Bill of Materials (CalBOM) template for calibrations
Collaborate with Controls and Software Engineers to review controls design and/or software implementation, providing guidance to ensure compliance with requirements
Support definition and implementation of Testable Functionality Roll-Out Plan (TFRP)
Collaborate with Validation Engineers to support the creation of testable scenarios to ensure intent of BTS requirements is met with a robust test plan
Support the root cause analysis for applicable sub-system related issues and translate resolutions into new or revised requirements, as appropriate
Support the development of requirements related to OBD regulations or calibrations, as applicable
Support the development and tagging of safety requirements, based on rolldown from systems/systems safety, and regulatory requirements
Operate in agile development of software-related requirements as a key participant and stakeholder in scrum meetings and ART ceremonies (e.g. Daily Stand-Up, Iteration Planning, Iteration Review, and Program Increment Planning, etc.)
Create and maintain Features and Stories to manage requirements and specifications of sub-systems using change management tool (e.g. Jira) and complete stories by agreed timing
Review Owner’s Manual and Service information related to the applicable sub-system to ensure alignment with intended subsystem operation, if applicable
Provide guidance to support virtual CoSIM environment development
Requirements:
Bachelor’s Degree in Systems / Mechatronic / Controls / Electrical / Software / Mechanical or related engineering discipline
Minimum of 6+ years of relevant experience
Experience related to mechatronic systems or subsystems
Basic knowledge of controls theory and the software development process
Strong analytical problem-solving skills, including independent judgment and decision-making skills, where problems are very unusual and extremely difficult
Demonstrated communication and interpersonal skills required to build relationships with team members and customers to solve problems and resolve issues
Physics-based understanding of the Voice-of-Customer
Ability to effectively communicate issues, status and recommendations to leadership
Proven ability in project management skills and ability to teach others
Ability to prioritize work with limited direction
Must be legally allowed to work in Canada and able to travel to the US
Nice to have:
Masters or PhD in Engineering with an emphasis on Systems, Mechatronics, or Controls
Experience with writing, interpreting or managing requirements
Experience with requirements management tools (e.g., DNG, DOORS, etc.)
Experience with Behavior Driven Development (BDD), Test-Driven Development (TDD), Gherkin syntax
Experience with Model Based Systems Engineering and associated tools (e.g. Rhapsody)
Knowledge of risk-assessment tools, such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
Experience with calibration, software, or software/controls development
Experience leveraging simulation environments and plant modeling for testing or requirements generation (e.g., Matlab/Simulink, CarSim, GT-Power, D-Space, ETAS, etc.)
Experience with work management tools such as JIRA/JIRA Align, Azure, IBM Rational Team Concert, etc.
Experience with OBD regulations requirements
Experience with Agile methodologies
Experience with automotive regulations or safety critical systems
Experience with Microsoft Visio
Experience with automotive electrical architectures and/or software defined vehicles
Familiarity with vehicle network communication protocols and tools such as Ethernet, CAN, LIN, and SPI
