Systems Integration Engineer

Description

Systems Integration Engineer ensures that complex, multi-component systems operate seamlessly by designing integration strategies, validating performance, and resolving interoperability challenges across hardware and software environments.

• •Develop and maintain system and subsystem architectural descriptions for an L4 autonomous off-highway vehicle, including:
• •Physical hardware architecture
• •Compute hardware
• •Sensors and actuators
• •System and subsystem functions
• •Functional interfaces
• •Physical connectivity
• •Communication networks and protocols
• •Functional inputs and outputs
• •Hardware/software allocation

• •Define and document system boundaries, interfaces, dependencies, assumptions, and interactions.
• •Map vehicle functions to the systems, hardware, software, sensors, actuators, communications, and interfaces that implement them.
• •Support development and maintenance of interface-control information and functional/physical architecture.
• •Work with the safety engineer to provide the design information necessary to map identified hazards and safety requirements into the actual system architecture.
• •Work directly with third-party suppliers to obtain and integrate:
• •Component/subsystem architecture and interfaces
• •Functional behavior
• •Failure behavior
• •Safety mechanisms
• •Assumptions and dependencies
• •Supplier safety analyses and safety-case information

Identify gaps or inconsistencies between supplier information and the vehicle-level architecture.

Requirements

• •3-5 years of systems integration experience required. Preferably 5 or more.
• •Experience with complex embedded, electromechanical, autonomous, or distributed-control systems.
• •B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering.
• •Experience supporting FMEA/FMECA desirable.
• •Experience with autonomous vehicles, robotics, defense ground vehicles, or safety-critical embedded systems preferred.
• •INCOSE certification (ASEP/CSEP/ESEP) or demonstrated equivalent systems-engineering experience preferred.
• •US Citizen or Green Card holder
