Associate Functional Safety Consultant

Why should you want this job?
You have an understanding of embedded software systems but feel that development isn't your biggest interest. Instead, you want to use your talent to identify how to make processes better, safe, and clear to safely and securely develop tomorrow's vehicles.

Functional Safety is a multidisciplinary domain contributing to the development of safer electronic products for our society. It has become increasingly crucial for our digital age since the growing automation, connectivity, and electromobility trends have increased our reliance on vulnerable cyber-physical systems.

You will be part of our initiative within Functional Safety, teaming up with our Safety Manager and the rest of the team. Together with your colleagues, you will form cross-functional teams, working on Functional Safety-related projects for our clients that focus on working and ensuring compliance to related standards. This includes tasks such as reviewing and creating processes, educating organizations, developing safety concepts, and helping our clients achieve optimized compliance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4PxoLOAzh4) with Functional Safety.

Build a career you can be proud of
What we offer you is not a laid-out road for you to walk down. We do things a bit differently. You are in control of your development, no matter which path you want to take. If it's to reach a new role in the future or a specific technology, we will be there to help you move forward.

We will help you build your career through close collaboration and teamwork, where you will be able to learn and work with some of the most skilled in the industry. We will provide the training needed for you to reach your career goals, including mentorship, courses, and training, both internally and externally.

You would also get the opportunity to participate in competence networks, standardization, and research at our partner SAFER, one of Europe's leading centers for transport safety.

Skills needed
- M.Sc. in dependable systems, mobility engineering, automotive engineering, embedded systems, functional safety, or similar.
- Knowledge of related standards such as IEC61508, ISO26262, and/or EN 62304
- Strong interest in process development, way of working, and safe software


We also think that you are fluent in English and either already speaking Swedish or have a clear plan and desire to learn. Your thesis has probably been towards safe software development or related processes. If you have experience in Functional Safety within the automotive industry, your profile is extra interesting.
