Pursue Purpose

Electric Vehicle Diagnostic Engineer

Here you don't just design vehicles- you shape the future of the road. Our Engineering team is where bold ideas meet rigorous execution, building machines that are as durable and capable as the people who drive them. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with brilliant minds across disciplines, turning complex challenges into elegant, scalable solutions that meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and user experience.

This is a place where your fingerprints are found on metal – where what you design gets built, driven, and remembered. If you're hungry to engineer something that matters, this is where that ambition finds its highest gear. Become part of an iconic brand that is set to revolutionize the electric pick-up truck & rugged SUV marketplace by achieving the following:

• Lead the end-to-end definition of OBD implementation on UDS for new software-defined vehicle architecture
• Own the diagnostic communication concept for OBD-relevant functions, including service definitions, DID strategies, DTC access, routine behaviors, session concepts, security interaction, and tester workflows
• Define scalable and robust requirements for how OBD-related data and services are exposed through UDS across domains, controllers, and diagnostic gateways
• Act as the technical lead for UDS-based OBD architecture, ensuring alignment between systems engineering, software development, diagnostics, validation, cybersecurity, and aftersales teams
• Establish a coherent strategy for diagnostic communication behavior in prototype, development, production, and service environments
• Review and approve diagnostic concepts, interface specifications, and implementation proposals to ensure consistency, compliance, maintainability, and serviceability
• Drive requirements traceability from architectural intent through software implementation, validation evidence, and release approval
• Support issue resolution by reviewing traces, service logs, communication behavior, and test evidence to identify root causes and define corrective actions
• Guide development teams on best practices for diagnostic communication design, integration, and robustness in an SDV environment
• Partner with platform and architecture teams to ensure the UDS strategy supports future scalability, OTA updates, centralized compute evolution, and long-term service needs
• Coordinate and contribute into prototype and serial development stages in terms of software availability, test planning, data review, diagnostic behavior alignment, and technical reporting
• Be involved in other related tasks/activities as required

Location & Travel Expectations:

• This role will be based out of the location in Novi, Michigan.
• This role requires 4-5 days per week in the office, with regular in-person meetings and events.
• Applicants should expect that the role will require the ability to convene with colleagues in person and travel to participate in events on behalf of the company from time to time.

What you'll bring:
We expect all employees to have integrity, curiosity, resourcefulness, and strive to exhibit a positive attitude, as well as a growth mindset. You'll be comfortable with change and flexible in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You'll take a collaborative approach to achieve ambitious goals. Here's what else you'll bring:

• Relevant degree such as a bachelor's or master's degree in Engineering, Technology, IT Systems, Computer Science, Mechatronics, or Engineering Technology from an accredited college or university, preferably in electrical engineering, automotive engineering, or computer engineering
• 12+ years of experience in automotive diagnostics, embedded systems, software integration, or systems engineering, with deep expertise in UDS-based diagnostics and OBD implementation
• Strong experience defining and leading diagnostic communication concepts over UDS, including service behavior, data identifiers, routine control, session handling, security access, fault memory handling, and tester interactions
• Experience creating and governing OBD requirements on top of UDS-based software architecture, particularly in modern software-defined vehicle…
