In this role, you'll define system requirements, shape architecture models, and support validation efforts using hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platforms and real hardware systems in the lab and vehicle. You'll collaborate with a dynamic, cross-functional team of experts to deliver high-performance, safe, and reliable solutions. What You'll Be Doing: * Architect & Design: Define system-level architecture and decompose functionality across subsystems (e.g., BMS, power electronics, controls), clearly allocating hardware and software responsibilities. * Model & Analyze: Develop and maintain system-level models and simulations (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, HIL) to optimize performance, safety, and reliability. * Integrate & Collaborate: Work closely with hardware, firmware, software, and test teams to ensure seamless integration across components and HIL environments. * Test & Validate: Create test plans, execute validation protocols, and troubleshoot issues to ensure systems meet UL/industry standards and performance criteria. * Requirements Management: Own the end-to-end system requirements process-from capturing and tracing to verifying specifications throughout the development lifecycle. * Safety & Compliance: Contribute to functional safety analysis and compliance with relevant standards (e.g., ISO 26262, UL 2580), ensuring rigorous design reviews and documentation. * Stakeholder Support: Translate complex system data into actionable insights for internal teams and external customers, providing expert technical guidance. * Continuous Improvement: Stay at the forefront of energy storage innovations. Propose and implement enhancements to workflows, tools, and team processes (e.g., ECN workflows, Jira templates, decision databases). * Project Leadership: Lead small to mid-scale projects-setting technical direction, managing milestones and budgets, and aligning execution with strategic priorities. * Hands-On Development Support: Collaborate directly with development and test engineers to set up, operate, and analyze real hardware platforms, including lab bench systems, vehicle interfaces, and diagnostic tools. Help translate system models and requirements into physical configurations and testable prototypes. ## Related Videos - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Leveraging Large Language Models for Legacy Code Translation: Challenges and Solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1157-leveraging-large-language-models-for-legacy-code-translation-challenges-and-solutions) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) - [Software stack under and over the hood of the fastest accelerating car in the world](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/221-software-stack-under-and-over-the-hood-of-the-fastest-accelerating-car-in-the-world) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [Integrate your Cognitive Assistant with 3rd-party DBs and software](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/249-integrate-your-cognitive-assistant-with-3rd-party-dbs-and-software) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [From developer to manager – what does it take to become an engineering manager?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/42-from-developer-to-manager-what-does-it-take-to-become-an-engineering-manager) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [Top Characteristics of a Software Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/166-top-characteristics-of-a-software-engineer) - [A Guide to Green Tech and Green IT Careers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/374-a-guide-to-green-tech-and-green-it-careers) - [Software Engineer Career: Things You Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/143-software-engineer-career-things-you-should-know)
