You will be a key player in ensuring their complex, distributed technologies—including powertrain, infotainment, and active safety—meet the highest safety standards. Using Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), you will bridge the gap between research and production, turning "what if" into "what’s next."
Responsibilities:
- Execute ISO 26262 functional safety activities with cross functional and global teams (e.g., powertrain, infotainment, active safety, driver assistance, and automated features)
- Apply Ford ISO 26262 processes, methods, tools, and trainings to develop functional safety software and system work products
- Use MBSE/SysML to model functions, interfaces, and safety-related behaviour; contribute to globally common safety ratings and model libraries
- Support creation of safety concepts and system designs; help transition advanced technologies from research to production
- Produce clear technical documentation and communications supporting audits, reviews, and program milestones
- Lead reviews with key stakeholders and suppliers.
- Collaborate with research and advanced engineering, product development, quality, and manufacturing to integrate safety by design
- Identify and drive continuous improvement in processes, methods, tools, and training
- Serve as a growing subject matter expert within the first year and mentor peers in functional safety and systems engineering best practices
