The opportunity
Nuro believes self-driving vehicles are the most immediate and profound opportunity for AI to drive positive change in the physical world. Safer streets, more time for what matters, and easier access to the world around us—that’s why we’re building a universal autonomy platform:…
What you'll do
Drive the system-level safety architecture and requirements for the Autonomy: Hardware and Firmware of the Nuro Driver, ensuring compliance with automotive safety standards such as ISO 26262 and ISO 21448.
Decompose vehicle-level Safety Goals into a cohesive Functional Safety: Concept (FSC) and refine it into a detailed Technical Safety Concept (TSC), defining system-level safety mechanisms, fault detection and reaction strategies, and safe states.
Develop the system-level SOTIF specification for the Autonomy Hardware and: Firmware of the Nuro Driver, defining performance targets and acceptance criteria for safety-critical systems like Autonomy Sensors and Compute.
Lead, perform, and review system-level safety analyses, including Hazard: Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Dependent Failure Analysis (DFA) to identify risks and derive safety requirements.
Work closely with controls, embedded SW, and HW teams and external partners: to review and recommend changes to existing requirements and test plans.
Support the verification and validation efforts by reviewing and suggesting: additional tests and implementing test cases on SIL/HIL environments.
What they're looking for
- Analyze and interpret test data from simulation, HIL/SIL, and on-road vehicle: testing to validate the effectiveness of safety mechanisms and identify residual risks.
- Support and maintain sections of the overall Safety Case pertaining to: platform systems utilizing structures like GSN and focusing on residual risk assessment and clear argumentation.
- Hands on experience in systems engineering and automotive functional safety: (ISO 26262) including requirements generation.
- + years of experience in system architecture for safety critical systems.
