  • Hands-on Experience in any Systems Architecture modeling tools like Medini analyze, System composer, Enterprise Architect, Cameo Magic, IBM Rhapsody etc.
Bonus Skills
  • Specific experience with distributed energy, power electronics, and/or lithium-ion battery design and/or safety evaluations is a plus.
  • Professional experience with risk mitigation strategies including static/runtime analysis, stress testing, coding guidelines, software-in-the-loop testing and hardware-in-the-loop testing, etc. is a plus.
  • Experience working with Battery Systems that are (or targeted) ASIL-D certification for ISO26262.
  • Knowledge of AUTOSAR architecture.
  • Experience designing Model-based systems design (MBSE) for safety-critical systems using any modeling tools like Cameo, MATLAB/Simulink or Ansys SCADE.
