About The Position

Stellantis is seeking a Hardware Electronics Design Engineer for its Hardware Electronics group, which develops technology and customer experiences for automotive applications. The engineer will steer the development, launch, and production of ZCU/BMS hardware, collaborating with project management, hardware platform design, software development, product validation, and electronic manufacturing services teams and suppliers.

The role contributes to the specification and design of ZCU/BMS boards, translates internal customer needs into application requirements and deliverables, and supports the development of scalable hardware architectures and platforms. It also addresses cost, size, weight, power, performance, safety, and schedule considerations, including implementation of cybersecurity and functional safety requirements.

The engineer establishes quality benchmarks and standards, provides technical guidance to internal teams and suppliers, and supports design and product validation. The work involves analyzing schematics, datasheets, user manuals, processor architectures, memory options, automotive ICs, electrical I/O, automotive networks, and log files or traces.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, electronics engineering, or a similar field.
• At least 8 years of experience working in electronics design.
• Experience with circuit simulations and Worst Case Circuit Analysis.
• Experience creating Hardware-Software Interface Specifications (HSIS).
• Experience with schematic capture software and eBOM variant handling.
• Hands-on, industry-relevant experience in electronic hardware development.
• Strong knowledge of analog and digital design and circuit analysis, including power management ICs, HSD, LSD, smart drivers, MCUs, and digital logic.
• Experience supporting hardware component validation, including electrical, EMC, ESD, and environmental validation.
• Hands-on hardware testing experience with lab instruments such as oscilloscopes, electronic loads, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers.
• Strong teamwork and oral and written communication skills.
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

Nice To Haves

• Advanced degree in electronics engineering.
• Hardware development experience for automotive products at a Tier 1 or Tier 2 supplier.
• Experience designing electronics that operate from -40°C to 105°C ambient temperature.
• Experience with Altium schematic capture and variation handling.
• Knowledge of applicable safety standards, including ISO 26262.
• Experience with D-FMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis).
• Familiarity with automotive electronics standards, including automotive EMC/EMI and environmental test standards, design factors of safety, and product verification.
• Solid understanding of system and component design.
• Solid understanding of HSD, LSD, H-Bridges, and Half-Bridge.
• Solid understanding of ETH, CAN FD, LIN, and LVDS communication protocols and troubleshooting tools.

Responsibilities

• Steer the development, launch, and production of ZCU/BMS hardware in coordination with project management, hardware platform design, software development, validation teams, and EMS suppliers.
• Contribute to specification and design of ZCU/BMS boards for automotive systems.
• Work with internal customers to understand and specify application requirements and deliverables, including Product Functional specifications, Hardware-Software Interface Specifications, and functional safety requirements.
• Investigate scalable architecture alternatives and development paths for ZCU/BMS hardware platforms.
• Support establishment of scalability, cost, size, weight, power, performance, safety, and schedule requirements for next-generation hardware platforms.
• Support hardware implementation of cybersecurity and functional safety requirements for ZCU/BMS.
• Create quality benchmarks and standards and provide technical expertise on quality standards to internal technical teams, suppliers, and partners.
• Provide hardware technical support for design and product validation in collaboration with the STLA validation team and EMS suppliers.
• Analyze schematics, datasheets, user manuals, processor architecture, memory options, automotive ICs, electrical I/O, automotive networks, and log files or traces.
