Hardware Engineer

Location: Dearborn, MI, United States; Hybrid

We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.

 

In this position...

We are looking for an experienced Hardware Engineer to own signal integrity (SI) and hardware robustness for high-speed, in-vehicle communication links within Ford's network communications hardware team.

 

Our team is responsible for ISO Layer 1 and 2 of networking. We work on finding and developing the right networking technologies for Ford’s next-generation electrical architecture. This means introducing new solutions and tweaking existing ones to help keep overall system costs down while ensuring electrical robustness for automotive use.

 

In this role, you will author Layer 1–2 networking specs and design verification documents that are used across all Ford vehicle programs. You will also lead hardware design reviews, run simulations, do lab validation for network interfaces, and help guide our electrical architecture. Depending on your experience, this position could be filled at the Senior / Lead / Principal level.

 

Ideally, you have hands-on experience building and testing high-performance compute systems and high-speed digital interfaces (like PCIe, USB, Ethernet, FPD-Link, etc.), plus a background in guiding or mentoring other engineers.
