Senior Automotive Software Requirements Engineer (Infotainment & Seating)

Quick Facts

• Role: Senior Automotive Software Requirements Engineer (Infotainment & Seating)

• Experience: 7–9 years total; minimum 3+ years in Automotive Infotainment, Automotive Seating, or Embedded Systems

Description

Own end-to-end software requirements engineering for automotive infotainment features and seating control functions. You will analyze and decompose requirements, author and maintain traceable software specifications, and manage traceability matrices across requirements, design, and test cases using DOORS DNG. You will also collaborate on IVI architecture and HMI/UX, validate vehicle communication protocols, and apply mid-level functional safety, cybersecurity, and AUTOSAR knowledge while defining and validating seating diagnostics and safety behavior.

Responsibilities

• Perform requirement analysis and decomposition for infotainment features

• Author and maintain software specifications with clear traceability

• Manage traceability matrices across requirements, design, and test cases

• Utilize DOORS DNG for requirement management and version control

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define IVI architecture (head unit, middleware, apps)

• Design and validate HMI & UX principles for infotainment systems

• Work on multimedia subsystems (audio, video, navigation)

• Integrate and validate vehicle communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet, UDS, OBD-II)

• Apply functional safety knowledge to software requirements (ISO 26262 concepts, ASIL awareness, safety decomposition, traceability, verification criteria)

• Apply automotive cybersecurity knowledge to requirements (ISO/SAE 21434 concepts, TARA awareness, secure diagnostics/communication, authentication, access control, secure boot/update, verification criteria)

• Apply AUTOSAR knowledge during software requirement analysis and interface definition (Classic and awareness of Adaptive)

• Analyze and decompose requirements for automotive seating functions (lumbar, bolster, cushion extension/tilt, position/memory, heating, ventilation, massage)

• Define and review seat-control architecture and interfaces (ECUs, motors, position sensors, switches, power management, network signals)

• Specify and validate seating diagnostics and safety behavior (actuator faults, plausibility checks, anti-pinch protection, thermal protection, DTCs, UDS diagnostic services)

• Communicate effectively with stakeholders and apply system thinking to complex problems
