Senior Platform Safety Analysis Engineer, HALOs Platforms - Autonomous Vehicles

NVIDIA, known as the AI computing company, is developing an innovative AI-based full stack for autonomous transportation. They are seeking a Senior Platform Safety Analysis Engineer to lead efforts in ensuring the functional safety of their autonomous driving platforms, focusing on integrating safety analysis across systems, software, and hardware.

Responsibilities:

• The increased use of AI and the underlying compute HW used represent a challenge to analyze and demonstrate HW fault metric compliance, we will look to you to propose new methods and refine existing practices
• You will carry out analysis using classical approaches such as fault trees used alongside model-based techniques to derive application and system-level diagnostic measures on top of existing HW measures
• Development of automation to support the analysis of complex multi-layered systems will be required
• Analysis and interpretation of internal and external safety documentation to identify improvements which can be helpful to meet ever more challenging safety targets
• Ensure the integration of the System, Software and Hardware safety analysis methodologies to demonstrate the final system meets overall HW safety metrics

Requirements:

• BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience
• 12+ years of experience in systems architecture or related fields
• Experience working across company boundaries as development partners
• Technically strong engineers who bring experience in safety analysis of embedded systems at the Hardware and Software Level and can find the right level of abstraction adapted to the tasks in hand
• Proven competence in performing safety analysis using qualitative and quantitative methods (e.g FTA, FMEA and FMEDAs)
• Background in HW SOC and/or board level architecture, Automotive ECU architecture is especially valued
• Demonstrable competence in tools and automation focused on safety analysis
• Familiarity with safety standards (ISO 26262, IEC 61508, ISO/PAS 21448)
• Experience in the evaluation of fault metrics through the combination of built-in HW measures and application coverage
