06_Autonomous Driving - System Engineer (Verification and Validation Lead)

At Tier IV, we build self-driving solutions for many operational domains covering a broad range of applications. Building on widely-used open-source software, we provide both the foundational self-driving technology as well as the integration and customisation necessary to provide our customers with complete self-driving applications. As a System Engineer (Verification and Validation Lead), you will be responsible for managing how we verify and validate the behaviour of our self-driving vehicles and ensure they meet requirements and, most importantly, are safe. You will manage the planning, documentation and execution of tests for V&V of self-driving vehicles. You will coordinate with our self-driving engineers to ensure that V&V expectations are realistic and clear, and coordinate with test engineers to ensure that tests are executed correctly and test results are made available. ・Plan a comprehensive test programme for self-driving vehicles and software, and manage the execution of that test programme. ・Create test plans to verify and validate the behaviour of self-driving vehicles and software, find incorrect and unexpected behaviours, and identify root causes. ・Create test schedules to ensure timely verification of newly-developed features and continued correct behaviour of existing features. ・Analyse test results, pushing identified issues through to closure and signing-off on passed tests. ・Manage the interaction between test engineers and self-driving software developers. ・As necessary, participate in the execution of test plans.

・A bachelor's degree in software, electrical, mechanical, mechatronic, industrial, aerospace or equivalent engineering field. ・5+ years of experience in testing, troubleshooting and debugging complex physical and software systems ・Experience in managing a team of test engineers to work according to a test plan ・Ability to think at the system level ・Understanding of the V&V requirements of safety standards such as IEC 61508 and ISO 26262 ・Ability to communicate at a technical level in both English and Japanese

・Experience with Linux or Unix-based systems ・Experience with performing V&V for safety-critical systems ・Experience with taking a safety-critical system through to certification ・Experience with self-driving, automated trains, aircraft autopilots, or similar automated or autonomous systems
