Electronics Functional Safety Engineer

What you will do
The Electronics Functional Safety Engineer (FSE) is a design and development role within the Advanced Battery Core Electronics Team that reports directly to the Global Electronics Engineering Manager. This important role provides technical leadership within in a team environment to design and develop requirements driven functionally safe electronic circuits as part of the Battery Management System (BMS) that goes into Clarios' new generation of lithium-ion batteries.

The electronic BMS is critical to the performance and safety of the battery. As a
member of this team, you will be exposed to the latest in BMS technology and contribute to developing "best-in-class" electronic battery controls.

How you will do it

• Execute the detailed technical aspects of FuSa analysis, requirements, design and verification & validation (V&V)

• Execute safety analyses (Quantified Fault-Tree, FMEA, Common-mode analysis, reliability analysis)

• Define electronic hardware requirements and specifications

• Define electronic hardware V&V plans and methods

• Implementation of hardware safety design best practices

• Develop Functional Safety aspects of the hardware DVP&R (System V&V)

• Support verification (Peer) reviews of design, analysis and V&V prepare reports

• The Hardware FSE authority: defining specifications and preparing technical reports for hardware engineering requirements, analyses, design and V&V

• Experience in controls system and electronic system design

• Collaborate with Systems Safety Team to review Functional and Technical Safety requirements

• Perform ASIL decomposition and common cause analysis

• Create Hardware Safety requirements consistent with ISO 26262 Part 5

• Develop BMS safety concept and support BMS design team (including Systems and Software) in implementing according to ISO 26262 Parts 5 and 6

• Perform qualitative analysis (FMEA, FTA) and quantitative analysis (FMEDA)

• Perform Hardware verification and confirmation reviews

• Work with multidisciplinary team of software, mechanical, system, test, safety, and production engineers to develop a successful product.

• Follow program timing and deliver results according to plan to ensure successful completion of the assigned project phase within the budgeted timing and cost constraints.

• Ability to effectively work with and lead in a cross functional team environment with minimal supervision
