• Assist project managers in planning and monitoring functional safety tasks.
• Ensure all system and software development activities meet applicable functional safety standards.
• Create and maintain work products from system-level requirements through to software design, implementation, and testing.
• Define both functional and technical safety requirements at system and subsystem levels.
• Specify software safety requirements for application and platform software.
• Develop safety concepts and mitigation strategies at both system and software levels.
• Contribute to hardware-software interface (HSI) specifications in collaboration with hardware teams.
• Ensure project timelines align with safety planning milestones.
• Coordinate safety-related tasks and expectations with customers and suppliers.
• Support integration and implementation of software safety requirements within both application and platform layers.
• Help define software architectures that support safety goals, including techniques like ASIL decomposition, freedom-from-interference, and dependent failure analysis.
