System Design Engineer
Good at bridging the gap between high-level requirements and hands-on software development? Want to work in the exciting field of autonomous driving technology and be able to save millions of lives?
Is saving human lives by enabling autonomous vehicles something that inspires you? Would you like to be an important part of translating complex requirements into actionable tasks for our software developers?
You'll work closely with highly skilled people, using cutting-edge hardware and software, focusing on camera software requirements in an inclusive culture where it’s safe to fail. You’ll work for our main purpose, to go towards zero, faster – meaning zero traffic accidents. Think you have what it takes to be the crucial link in our development chain? Apply today – no CV needed at the first stage, only contact information, we'll cover the rest later.
Insights from the Team:
Team Vision Component is part of the product area Perception and Compute Platform. The team integrates camera sensors to the Zenseact SW stack and secures that image acquisition works reliably.
We write production code for safety critical systems, something which requires special processes, thorough code review and testing. As many concepts are cutting-edge there is room to learn and gain knowledge in various API’s and platforms by proof of concepts.
We foster an open and supportive culture, eliminating silos to ensure knowledge sharing and minimize stress. We value design and architecture discussions, openly address highlights and issues during retrospectives, and involve our Product Owner and Engineering Manager for changes or initiatives.
Your Role and Day-to-Day Tasks:
- Communicate with stakeholders, review and accept incoming requirements, ensuring alignment with Nvidia's and/or automotive standards. Release the requirements for import into doorstop (which is a requirement management tool that facilitates the storage of textual requirements alongside source code and tracing requirements to implementations and test cases.)
- Create and maintain the internal architecture of the Camera Service - SW container.
- Safety analysis for any safety related requirements, performing Fault tree analysis, Failure mode & effect analysis as well as Software architecture safety analysis.
- Define test plans and specifications, ensuring thorough verification and documentation. Contribute to the test strategy and test plan.
- Interface with system architects in the rest of organization, provide domain expertise in Nvidia's SW stack.
- Support roadmap development and evolution of the Logical Architecture.
What's in it for you?
This is an opportunity to be the key communicator between Volvo Cars, Nvidia, and our development teams, you’ll have a chance to shape the future of our work processes and build trust across key partnerships, in a role that’s central to the development of autonomous vehicles. Apply today to be a part of a mission-focused team, committed to innovation and collaboration.
Qualifications & Experience:
Most likely you have worked as a System Designer and are used to bring a product from proof-of-concept state to live. You would need to have worked as a developer previously to be able to properly deep-dive in to our requirements and architecture. Building relationships and a good network through the organization is something you enjoy. You thrive in a context without defined rules, processes and structure – and add to creating such. You are receptive to change, exhibit persistence, and desire the freedom to organize your daily activities and set personal goals.
You also have the following:
- Experience in system design within a safety-critical environment (ISO 26262 or similar).
- Familiarity with SystemWeaver (or other type of requirement handling frameworks).
- Knowledge of Nvidia's SW stack and experience with embedded camera systems is a bonus.
- You are able to read and understand code, bonus is if you are comfortable with C++. There is no expectation on you to code though.
- You are aware of how production code software development standards look like.
What more do we offer?
Flexible-remote way of working: Zenseact has a flexible and modern approach, thus is happy to offer to its employees the possibility for a combination of work at the office and from home. This doesn't include fully remote work from outside Sweden/China.
More about Zenseact
Our software makes a difference.
Using AI-based technology to create the ultimate driver support, we’re fighting to end car accidents and make roads safe for everyone. Every year, around 1,4 million people die in traffic while approximately 50 million people get injured. Many get disabled as a result of their injury. We can do better.
One purpose, one product.
We’re a software company dedicated to revolutionizing car safety. By designing the complete software stack for autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems, we’re fighting to end car accidents and make roads safe for everyone. Zenseact was founded by Volvo Cars, and the teams are based in Gothenburg, Sweden, and Shanghai, China. When we aim for zero accidents faster, we strive to speed up the transition to safe automation. This is essentially achieved by making cars updatable – like a computer or a phone. With regular software updates, a vehicle can be made safer long after its production. By accelerating improvement loops, shortening development cycles, and deploying high-capacity software quickly, we can make cars safer, faster.
Culture with people at heart
To achieve our mission of saving lives and ending traffic accidents is to go where nobody has before. It requires us to venture into the unknown, pioneering new technology and pushing the frontier of autonomous driving. While there’s no denying our determination and expertise, we must stand united to succeed. By fostering a culture of support and enablement – a place of psychological safety where all of us can thrive – everything else will follow. We call this a people-at-heart culture. This culture means caring. It means the company cares about me, and we care about one another. It means sharing, so we give each other energy and have fun together. Our culture is also about belonging. It’s important to feel at home and that we can be ourselves at work. Finally, a people-at-heart culture means well-being. So, we enjoy the flexibility needed to be and do our best – at work and in life.
Zenseact works proactively to create a culture of diversity and inclusion, where individual differences are appreciated and respected. To drive innovation we see diversity as an asset, which means we value and respect differences in gender, race, ethnicity, religion or other belief, disability, sexual orientation or age etc.
Interviews are held on a continuous basis, so we highly recommend that you submit your application at your earliest convenience.
