Embedded Software Engineer - Safety
AIM, Seattle
What you need
About you
You're an experienced embedded safety engineer who has helped bring safety-critical hardware and software products into production. You understand functional safety beyond documentation and compliance — you've designed safety mechanisms, evaluated system hazards, developed verification strategies, and made difficult engineering decisions to ensure products are safe to deploy.
You have direct experience working with established functional safety standards such as ISO 26262 or IEC 61508, and understand how to translate safety requirements into practical engineering decisions.
You're comfortable operating in environments where there isn't a single established standard or playbook. You can evaluate existing safety frameworks, identify gaps, and develop a defensible safety strategy for emerging technologies.
You bring strong technical judgment, communicate clearly across disciplines, and have the conviction to challenge engineering decisions or stop a release when safety requirements haven't been met.
Basic qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Systems Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
