Safety Software Engineer
Job description
About the role
Full time / Ingolstadt / Hybrid / All levels
Who we are
We build autonomous ground vehicles. The team is small, so everyone works close to the product: you write the code, you take it to the field, you watch it drive. Whoever does the work makes the call. We ship in days, not quarters.
By shifting dangerous tasks to machines, we protect free societies and the lives of those who serve.
The role
You decide what "safe" means for our system, then make it real.
Level is open. We work with everything from a few years of experience up to principal, as long as you've done this before.
What you'll do
- Own the safety concept across several microcontrollers, the Linux compute node and the remote control software on laptops and tablets
- Take it from concept to vehicle: safe states, watchdogs, degradation, E-stop paths
- Decide which standards apply and how far we take them, and defend that with customers and assessors
- Keep requirements, tests and evidence connected and honest
Good fit if you
- Have done functional safety in a product that shipped: EU Machinery Regulation / Maschinenrichtlinie, ISO 13849, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, MIL-STD-882 or the defense equivalents you've worked with
- Come from either side, hands on the code or strong on process. Both work here, and doing both is a plus. Experience with Rust helps too.
- Know which measures make the vehicle safer and which only make the file thicker
