Staff Systems Engineer, Vehicle Power Modes – Palo Alto (Hybrid)

Lead the architecture of vehicle power-mode strategies for Rivian and Volkswagen Group Technologies’ electric-vehicle technology joint venture. Define safe, deterministic power management across next-generation electrical architectures.

Descriere

  • Coordinate with external customer brands to align desired vehicle behavior with technical architecture constraints.
  • Ensure core vehicle power-mode software supports varied vehicle portfolios without brand-specific modifications.
  • Own the end-to-end technical definition of the vehicle power-mode system.
  • Partner with the TPM to scope and prioritize the technical roadmap against vehicle-program milestones.
  • Lead arbitration-logic design for competing subsystem power requests and safe, predictable power states.
  • Define software interfaces and APIs for the power-mode service across an Ethernet backbone with zonal controllers.
  • Implement power-related Limp-Home strategies with functional-safety and energy-management teams.
  • Orchestrate tiered load shedding and degraded-state transitions during system failures.
  • Translate high-level vehicle requirements into testable software, hardware, and integration specifications.
  • Define deterministic timing and sequencing between power-mode software and low- and high-voltage subsystems.
  • Manage vehicle-level sleep budgets in line with range and standing-time targets.
  • Support SIL and HIL test-case definition for high-risk transient power transitions.
  • Lead DFMEA and FTA functional analyses for hardware failures and degraded system states.
  • Mentor engineers on requirements decomposition, traceability, and complex power-system integration.

Cerințe

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering, systems engineering, computer science, or a related technical discipline.
  • At least 8 years of systems-engineering experience with complex electromechanical platforms.
  • Capability to design timing-critical sequences for high-transient loads while maintaining system stability.
  • Deep knowledge of high-voltage-to-low-voltage conversion and stable power rails with limited energy buffering.
  • Expertise with requirements-management tools such as Flow, Jama, Polarion, or DOORS.
  • Experience converting high-level system intent into testable software and hardware specifications.
  • Ability to set technical direction, lead cross-functional negotiations, and reconcile competing requirements.
  • Strong experience with DFMEA and Fault Tree Analysis.
  • Ability to manage technical scope across multiple vehicle platforms at once.
  • Familiarity with ISO 26262, DO-178C, or IEC 61508.
  • Experience designing fail-safe power-state transitions.
  • Ability to convert qualitative user experience goals into quantitative system requirements and technical specifications.

Beneficii

  • Annual company performance bonus with a 15% target for this role.
  • Restricted Stock Units, subject to board approval and applicable vesting requirements.
  • Health coverage.
  • Retirement savings plan.
  • Paid time off.
  • Family-planning programs.
  • Hybrid work arrangement.
  • Up to 10% travel as required.
