System Safety Architect

We are looking for a senior System Safety Architect to take full ownership of the safety strategy, architecture, and safety case for a complex platform project.

The Assignment

In this hands-on, engineering-focused role, you will translate safety requirements into concrete concepts and mechanisms across the entire tech stack—spanning compute, OS, middleware, and platform services. You will make key system-level decisions and represent them in discussions with developers, leadership, customers, and external assessors. You will also mentor the engineering teams in safety-driven design to embed safety naturally into their daily workflows.

Your Profile

You have a proven track record of building, owning, and defending complete safety cases through to product release within automotive or another safety-critical industry. You are a clear communicator in English, able to bridge the gap between deep technical details and high-level stakeholder needs.

Required skills & experience:

• Extensive knowledge of ISO 26262 (or equivalent) across the full safety lifecycle.

• Experience designing and reviewing architectures for mixed-criticality systems.

• Strong ability to balance safety against cybersecurity, performance, cost, and delivery timelines.
