Dearborn, MI, US
Position Description:
- Develop chassis control work products to coordinate actions and functions between modules and subsystems to meet vehicle level and Feature attributes.
- Develop and refine feature and system requirements to meet customer, regulatory and functional safety needs.
- Drive decomposition of system level requirements to technology requirements across Ford's vehicle domains, including Motion Control, Propulsion, and In-Vehicle Infotainment.
- Work with Functional Safety engineers to develop and refine feature functional safety requirements, item definition, hazard analysis/risk assessment and functional safety concept incompliance with ISO-26262/Ford Functional Safety process.
- Employ Model Based System Engineering to evaluate chassis control systems and integrate with interfacing vehicle systems.
- Develop and refine quality documents to ensure robust implementation of requirements (Boundary Diagram, FMEA, P-Diagram, Interface Matrix).
- Employ Model Based System Engineering to create and evaluate chassis control system boundary diagrams and FMEAs.
- Develop design validation methods to ensure feature robustness across all vehicle environmental conditions and customer usage.
- Develop and refine test cases to validate concept, logical and technology level requirements.
- Drive continuous improvement in test coverage and test techniques to proactively find and resolve technical issues early in the product development cycle, including simulation and vehicle prototypes.
- Work with the Hardware in the Loop (HIL) and virtual validation teams to establish procedures to reduce dependence on vehicle-level testing.
- Help execute real-world evaluation via vehicle/HIL/virtual testing and identify system problems/issues.
- Support and coordinate root-cause analysis with internal functions and external suppliers to ensure delivered system achieves feature requirements.
Skills Required:
- Requirements written to control how steering software will use feedback from sensors to induce an assist counter to inputs to cancel vibrations in the steering wheel.
- Requirements at a system level and at the technology level. Requirements should be clear, concise, atomic, verifiable, EARS compliant, InCose compliant and written at the correct level.
- 4 years of experience in system engineering including experience with System V, Functional decomposition, design analysis, Concept, Logical and technology level requirements development, System integration and FMA analysis.
Education Required:
Bachelor's Degree
Hybrid (4 days in office, Friday at home optional)
