Core System Architecture integration Engineer

Location: Dearborn, MI, United States; Hybrid

Architecture, system, and subsystem changes are managed within a controlled change management environment such as JIRA, enabling traceability, analytical reporting, and the generation of development health metrics, scorecards, and progress dashboards that reflect ECU development status.

 

The selected candidate will lead architecture enhancements and execution at both the architecture and ECU levels. Responsibilities include driving and tracking architecture implementation, ECU development progress, interface alignment, and overall delivery timing across hardware, software, and system domains using the JIRA tracking platform. This role requires strong coordination with cross-functional stakeholders including commodity owners, system owners, platform owners, and feature teams to ensure successful architecture implementation and deployment of incremental or new capabilities aligned with the overall E/E architecture strategy. The overall system scope spans in-vehicle subsystems, cloud/backend platforms, and vehicle front-end interfaces.

This position resides within the System and Core Architecture group. The primary responsibility is to lead architecture modernization across the program lifecycle through the development, integration, and delivery of system architecture and Electronic Control Units (ECUs) to meet defined program gateways and milestones. The Electrical/Electronic Fully Networked Vehicle (FNVx) architecture represents a multi-domain platform designed with enhanced flexibility and scalability to support evolving business objectives, accelerate delivery of advanced user experiences, and reduce overall system cost. The E/E Architecture includes multiple variants that continuously evolve to incorporate emerging technologies, cost-optimized solutions, and system enhancements. Architectural updates and design changes are communicated to cross-functional stakeholders as required.
