Sr. ADAS/AD Simulation Engineer

Your Role:

o Perform virtual validation of ADAS/AD driving, safety & parking functions such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Highway Assist, Lane Change Assist, Urban or Highway pilot

o Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Protection, Automated Parking etc. and/or

o Create and update the virtual model & simulation setup; create & execute scenarios for features validation at vehicle level, post-process results, generate report, discuss & present results to ADAS leadership for drawing appropriate conclusions.

o Be responsible for developing necessary pre & post-processing scripts, selection of scenarios, mapping of virtual validation cases with feature requirements while ensuring appropriate model fidelity.

o Correlate virtual modeling results with actual vehicle test data as necessary and appropriate for different fidelity models.

o Leverage state-of-the-art processes, virtual validation tools, data transfer & analysis in a highly interactive and collaborative environment.

o Facilitate and align related cross-functional technical teams such as ADAS software development (motion planning, perception etc.), vehicle chassis, powertrain, infotainment for ADAS system level validation and development activities.

o Work with suppliers as necessary and represent Lucid ADAS systems validation team.

o Explore various approaches for virtual validation (HIL, SIL and Vehicle-In-Loop).

Expectations:

o At least two years of experience in developing and executing virtual validation test plans for ADAS features on high performance computers or cloud

o Expert of few of the ADAS virtual simulation tools & methods – IPG CarMaker, Applied Intuition, CARLA, CarSim, Ansys, Simens or other such tools; HiL experience (dSpace/National Instruments etc.)

o Experience in developing models from scratch, model correlation and executing scenarios on cloud

o Experience and understanding of Open Scenario format and tools for generating scenarios

o Experience in working with ADAS or AD automotive features for mass production

o Working experience at automotive Tier 1/2 suppliers or OEMs in ADAS/AD virtual simulations, with a good command over automotive processes and workflows

o Programming skills related to simulation automation, results post-processing etc. (e.g. Python, C/C++, MatLab/Simulink)

o Capability and creativity to successfully complete projects with unconventional ideas in highly constrained, innovative startup environments

o Excellent communication skills (verbal and written) & ownership mindset

Advantageous:

o Understanding of SOTIF & coverage, ISO 26262, NCAP

o Broad understanding of various ADAS/AD systems and the interactions between mechanical, electrical and software components within the system

o Experience with Vector tools: CANoe, CANape and CAPL

o Proficiency with agile development tools and environments (Jira, Jama, …)

Requirements:

o BS minimum in System Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or similar and 8 years of engineering experience in the automotive industry

OR
