Staff Engineer, Functional Safety

Analog Devices I ndustrial A utomation B usiness U nit is working to enable the digital transformation within manufacturing and process control. As we move towards the digital edge ADI ha s ambitious plans to support our customers in areas including functional safety and cyber security.

The team has an opening for an experienced Functional Safety Engineer with strong expertise in electric motor and motion control applications, and/or robotics. This role will lead functional safety development for innovative solutions at board / module level including embedded software and integrated circuit s, in industrial application such as motor control and servo drives, r obotics and autonomous industrial systems .

In this role, you will be expected to help develop, implement, and deliver a consistent and scalable functional safety strategy for the specific application .

You will o wn and drive the creation of functional safety work products—including safety concepts and architectures, FMEDA and quantitative safety analyses, safety manuals, requirements and test strategies, as well as software test libraries and safety mechanisms .

The ability to employ systems thinking and collaborate with system architects, IC designers, software teams, and application experts to ensure end-to-end functional safety compliance is important, as is the ability to present functional safety concepts to our customers. to end functional safety compliance

While the core of the role is functional safety, our customers also need support in related areas including intrinsic safety, electrical safety, and cyber security. Existing knowledge in these areas is valuable, but training opportunities will be provided if needed.

Your Qualifications:

Minimum BS/BEng in Electrical, Electronic or Computer Engineering; MSEE or MSCE

Experience and Skills
