Senior System Engineer, AD/ADAS

Team: Customer Applications

Location: Tokyo

Commitment: Employee

Workplace Type: hybrid

TEAM

The AD requirement team’s mission is to define the system requirements for AD/ADAS and to derive them into software subsystem requirements. Moreover, we cover not only traditional rule-based requirements management but also data-driven requirements management.
In addition, we are responsible for designing robust system behavior in case of failures. We work closely with cross-functional AD/ADAS teams to realize safer and more secure vehicle control applications for mass-production vehicles.
By leveraging cutting-edge technology, we aim to create safer and more efficient systems. Our team is committed to innovation and quality, delivering solutions that support the future of mobility. 

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

You are a highly skilled professional with experience in complex automotive system development, preferably including some exposure to AD/ADAS systems. You will have to convert system requirements into software requirements and design system behavior, including fail-safe operations, in collaboration with cross-functional AD/ADAS stakeholders. You have leadership skills, enabling you to collaborate with cross-disciplinary design teams. Additionally, you are capable of exploring and managing requirements for data-driven systems and have a fundamental understanding of safety concepts for automotive systems.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Engage with various stakeholders to define vehicle-level system requirements
Decompose vehicle-level requirements into software subsystems, such as Sensors, Planner, Perception, MAP, and HMI
Manage data-driven requirements, including defining necessary data types and selecting effective data
Design system latency based on scenario analysis
Define product criteria, including performance and functional requirements
Define system behavior in failure conditions to realize safer and more secure automated driving and driving support systems
Define system-level and software-level requirements to realize fail-safe operations
Come to the office 3x per week per our hybrid work policy, and report to the system design team manager

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

Over 3 years of professional experience, preferably in automotive system development
Experience translating user or product-level requirements into architecture and allocating them appropriately
Experience in deriving, tracking, and verifying automotive application requirements using the V-model process
Experience in considering system behavior in failure conditions for automotive systems or other safety-related systems
Working proficiency in English
Experience using Japanese in a similar team (JLPT N2 or equivalent language ability)

NICE TO HAVES

Experience in project management and leadership
Software coding skills (Matlab, Python, or C/C++)
Experience with machine learning applications
Knowledge and experience with international AD/ADAS regulations (e.g., Euro NCAP, UN ECE, US NHTSA)
Experience in fail-safe development for automotive systems as part of system or software development
Functional safety and fail-safe design related basic knowledge of standards in the automotive industry (e.g. IEC 61508, ISO 26262, ISO 21448)
