Senior Systems Engineer, Performance Analysis

Описание вакансии

Primary Purpose:

A Senior Performance Analysis Engineer will serve as a technical domain owner while delivering capabilities in support of maintaining a high level of system quality and vehicle behavior for our autonomous driving technology. Ideal candidates for this position must have experience with system and sub-system level analysis, verification and validation methodologies, and cross team collaboration across software, testing and project management groups. Different from a traditional Software Quality Assurance (SQA) role, this position uniquely cross-cuts across “testing and operations” functions on the right half of the systems V-model and “software development and systems / safety requirements” functions on the left half of the V-model.

Essential Duties:

• Take technical ownership of an entire domain/sub-domain/system/sub-system (e.g., localization, motion planning, perception, prediction etc.), and maintain deep technical understanding across the AV stack
• Serve as the primary point of contact for performance analysis within said domain.
• Provide diagnostic guidance across teams when escalations occur.
• Lead end-to-end Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Fault Tree Assessment (FTA), Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) across public roads, closed course, simulation and Hardware-in-Loop (HIL)
• Drive both diagnosis as well as prognosis (risk trajectory, recurrence patterns, release immpact, etc.)
• Provide structured and detailed performance summaries to inform release readiness, commercial deployments, and KPI governance.
• Work with and lead efforts cross functionally across software, hardware, systems testing, operations and safety teams.
• Take ownership on removing high level engineering blockers affecting multiple teams.
• Take ownership of team-wide or org-wide KPIs/OKRs.
• Ensure performance metrics are communicated in a clear, structured manner across various teams, while remaining technically grounded.
• Drive automation and scalable analysis and reporting practices.
• Provide mentorship and structured feedback to peers and teammates, and support technical growth of junior engineers within the team.
• Partial travel is optionally recommended per business needs but not required for this role
• Other duties as assigned

Required Qualifications:

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily.  Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. The requirements listed below are representative of knowledge, skill and/or ability required.

• Bachelor's or higher degree in Engineering such as Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Robotics highly preferred; or at least four years of equivalent knowledge and work experience
• 5+ years of professional experience working on safety critical and complex systems such as -- Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, Automotive, Medical Devices or Aerospace Technologies
• Strong understanding of system and sub-system interactions in robotics/AV architecture.
• Experience with software engineering concepts, including requirements analysis, source control, build processes, design reviews
• Experience with Linux and scripting languages (E.g: Bash/Shell, Python)
• Experience using issue tracking and configuration management tools (E.g: Atlassian Confluence, Jira, Bitbucket, Git)
• Demonstrated problem solving skills and ability to think logically and remove bias from evaluation of problems
• Strong troubleshooting, debugging, and analytical and creative problem solving skills

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with systems verification and validation techniques
• Experience with automotive standards (E.g: ISO 12207, ISO 26262, ISO 21448)
• Experience with software quality management and assurance activities (E.g: IATF 16949, ISO 9001)
• Thorough understanding of robotics systems including sensors, actuators, mechatronics and software systems
• Work in cross collaboration teams to address problems and find solutions

Motional is a driverless technology company making autonomous vehicles a safe, reliable, and accessible reality. We’re driven by something more.

Our journey is always people first.

We aren't just developing driverless cars; we're creating safer roadways, more equitable transportation options, and making our communities better places to live, work, and connect. Our team is made up of engineers, researchers, innovators, dreamers and doers, who are creating a technology with the potential to transform the way we move.

Higher purpose, greater impact.

We’re creating first-of-its-kind technology that will transform transportation. To do so successfully, we must design for everyone in our cities and on our roads. We believe in building a great place to work through a progressive, global culture that is diverse, inclusive, and ensures people feel valued at every level of the organization. Diversity helps us to see the world differently; it’s not only good for our business, it’s the right thing to do.

Scale up, not starting up.

Our team is behind some of the industry's largest leaps forward, including the first fully-autonomous cross-country drive in the U.S, the launch of the world's first robotaxi pilot, and operation of the world's longest-standing public robotaxi fleet. We’re driven to scale; we’re moving towards commercialization of our technology, and we need team members who are ready to embrace change and challenges.
