System Safety Engineer Autonomous Driving AV Risk Evaluation

We are looking for a System Safety Engineer with a background in building risk models for ADAS, and/or autonomous driving to join our team. This engineer will define and manage the autonomy risk evaluation framework and bring all the necessary regulatory and cutting-edge research-driven risk assessment techniques and metrics into the scenario models for comprehensive evaluation of the AV stack performance across Autonomy Levels and Operational Design Domains (ODD).

Job description:

• Develop the risk evaluation framework and risk model for AVs, including identifying relevant metrics
• Lead efforts to deploy the risk model including tracing to data sources
• Lead efforts to establish the credibility of the risk model including validation of the accuracy of the model
• Support safety analysis and improvements in safety architecture
• Work with the verification and validation team to identify test plans to generate relevant evidence to support risk evaluation
• Work with scenario developers R&D and Application Engineers to ensure relevant metrics are being computed and measured
• Monitor the latest developments and formulation of safety standards by perusing R&D literature and formulate a methodology to incorporate these into the V&V framework
• Monitor and report on safety performance, and implement continuous improvement measures

Technical Skills (Mandatory)
