Mission Summary:We are seeking a highly motivated Vehicle Integration Staff / Senior Engineer to play a critical role in the integration, validation, and troubleshooting of next-generation vehicle platforms. This position will serve as a technical leader within the Vehicle Integration team, driving root cause analysis of complex vehicle-level issues while ensuring seamless integration of electrical, electronic, and networked systems.
The ideal candidate combines strong hands-on debugging skills with a systems level understanding of vehicle architectures, communication networks, and ECU interactions. This role requires close collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams to rapidly identify, resolve, and prevent integration issues throughout the vehicle development lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities:- ย ย Lead investigation and root cause analysis of complex vehicle integration issues across electrical, network, software, and hardware domains.
- ย ย Utilize structured problem-solving methodologies to identify dominant failure modes and implement robust corrective actions.
- ย ย Integrate, configure, and validate ECUs, sensors, actuators, and embedded systems at the vehicle level.
- ย ย Debug and validate vehicle communication networks, including CAN, CAN FD, Automotive Ethernet, and gateway routing.
- ย ย Develop and execute vehicle integration, design validation, and product validation test plans.
- ย ย Diagnose and resolve hardware-software interaction issues impacting vehicle functionality and performance.
- ย ย Analyze network traces, diagnostic logs, and system data to identify and resolve integration challenges.
- ย ย Document root cause findings, corrective actions, and lessons learned to improve product quality and development efficiency.
- ย ย Partner with subsystem teams including ADAS, Vehicle Engineering, Infotainment, Supplier Quality, and Connectivity to drive issue resolution.
- ย ย Support vehicle builds, bring-up activities, and validation testing throughout prototype and production phases.
- ย ย Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and guidance to junior engineers and cross-functional teams.
- ย ย Support integration planning, technical strategy development, and prioritization activities with the Integration Lead.
Required Qualifications:- ย ย 8+ years of experience in vehicle integration, automotive electronics, embedded systems, or related engineering disciplines.
- ย ย Strong experience performing vehicle-level root cause analysis and troubleshooting of complex electrical and networked systems.
- ย ย Deep understanding of CAN (CAN 2.0, CAN FD) protocols and associated tools such as Vector CANalyzer, CANoe, PCAN, or equivalent.
- ย ย Strong understanding of Automotive Ethernet technologies (100BASE-T1, 1000BASE-T1) and protocols including DoIP, SOME/IP, and AVB/TSN.
- ย ย Experience with electrical system debugging using oscilloscopes, multimeters, protocol analyzers, and other diagnostic tools.
- ย ย Ability to read, interpret, and troubleshoot electrical schematics, wiring harnesses, and connector systems.
- ย ย Experience with vehicle network architecture development, communication routing, and topology design.
- ย ย Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications:- ย ย Experience supporting OEM or Tier 1 vehicle programs from prototype development through production launch.
- ย ย Familiarity with AUTOSAR architectures, UDS diagnostics, gateway configuration, and network management.
- ย ย Experience with ADAS, autonomous vehicle, EV/HEV, or zonal vehicle architectures.
- ย ย Knowledge of system integration processes, DVP&R development, and vehicle validation methodologies.
- ย ย BS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
