An Automotive Functional Safety Engineer ensures that electronic and software-based vehicle systems comply with ISO 26262, the industry standard for functional safety. They analyze potential hazards, define safety requirements, and work with design teams to implement fail-safe mechanisms. Their role includes performing safety assessments, conducting verification and validation tests, and supporting the development of safety cases. Collaboration with cross-functional teams is essential to mitigate risks and enhance vehicle reliability.
To thrive as an Automotive Functional Safety Engineer, you need a strong background in electrical engineering or a related field, experience with safety standards like ISO 26262, and knowledge of vehicle systems. Familiarity with safety analysis tools such as FMEA, FTA, and specialized software like Medini Analyze or IBM Rational DOORS is typically required, and certification in functional safety (e.g., TÜV) is highly valued. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams are crucial soft skills. These competencies ensure the development and validation of safe automotive systems, helping companies meet regulatory requirements and maintain consumer trust.

Amazon is seeking a Hardware Functional Safety Engineer to define and guide the design of safety-critical hardware and controls for autonomous delivery vehicles. This role will establish the functional safety architecture and requirements across vehicle controls, autonomy compute, sensing, actuation, power, communications, and diagnostics. The preferred candidate will have demonstrated experience developing embedded control systems, performing hardware safety analyses, applying automotive functional safety standards, and working with internal engineering teams and external vehicle, autonomy, and technology partners.
Key job responsibilities
Functional Safety Architecture: Define and guide the design of safety-critical vehicle hardware, embedded controls, and autonomy interfaces.
Hazard and Risk Analysis: Perform hazard assessments and safety analyses across vehicle, autonomy, and supporting systems.
Safety Requirements: Develop safety plans, safety concepts, functional and technical safety requirements, and verification and validation plans.
Hardware Safety Design: Define safety mechanisms, diagnostics, redundancy, degraded operating modes, and safe-state behaviors for safety-critical hardware.
Safety Analysis: Perform qualitative and quantitative analyses, including FMEA, FMEDA, FTA, and dependent failure analysis.
Standards Application: Apply automotive functional safety standards throughout the development lifecycle and guide engineering teams on required processes and work products.
Cross-Company Collaboration: Work with internal teams and external autonomy, vehicle, and technology partners from concept through integration, testing, validation, and deployment.
Verification and Validation: Develop and review functional specifications, design verification plans, test procedures, and safety evidence.
Program Execution: Drive safety issues to closure and ensure systems can be manufactured, deployed, operated, and maintained safely.
