You will collaborate with architects, IP owners, RTL design engineers, physical
design, firmware and verification teams to deliver critical safety collaterals




ensuring end goal of achieving successful functional safety certification.

Key Responsibilities

* Collaborate with the Architects, Silicon Design, Software teams to architect
new safety concepts and safety mechanism features and guide future
development.

* Perform safety analyses (FTA, FMEA, DFA methodologies) against CCF, CF to
ensure FFI, independence & Fault tolerance requirements are met.

* Define protected architecture patterns (lockstep CPUs, ECC memories, watchdogs,
redundancy).

* Review and contribute to writing safety requirement specifications with
FSEs.

* Guide teams on ASIL/SIL decomposition, fault tolerance, diagnostics coverage,
etc.

* Review hardware/software safety designs for compliance and feasibility.

* Collaborate with design verification teams to define safety V&V; strategy
(fault injection, fault simulation, test methodologies).

* Ensure achievement of diagnostic coverage metrics (SPFM, LFM, PMHF).
