Senior Electronics Engineer — Functional Safety (SIL)

Rival; Zürich; Vor Ort; CHF 120.000 - 170.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

RIVR, part of Amazon, is seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer – Functional Safety to lead hardware-level safety design for our robotic platforms. You will develop fault-tolerant schematics and PCBs, implement diagnostics, and perform reliability analyses to meet SIL targets.

This hands-on role requires a Master’s degree and 5+ years of related experience, with collaboration across firmware, mechanical, and systems teams. In-person work at our Zürich office is expected.

Qualifikationen

• Master’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or closely related field.
• 5+ years designing electronics hardware for Functional Safety–certified products.
• Proven work under IEC 61508 (preferred), ISO 13849, or ISO 26262.
• Delivered PCB-level hardware achieving SIL 2 or SIL 3 (or equivalent PL d/e, ASIL B–D).
• Background in analog, power, and/or mixed-signal circuit design.
• Hands-on experience implementing safety architectures in schematics, not just block diagrams.
• Ability to perform FMEDA and SIL metrics calculations on own designs.
• Understanding of failure rate data sources and component derating.

Aufgaben

• Design fault-tolerant circuits for safety-critical subsystems and select safety architectures based on SIL targets.
• Implement hardware diagnostics and monitoring to detect dangerous failures.
• Design circuits enforcing defined safe states when faults are detected.
• Apply Common-Cause Failure mitigation at component and PCB level.
• Perform FMEDA on schematics and compute Safe Failure Fraction and Diagnostic Coverage.
• Create Reliability Block Diagrams and compute SIL metrics to verify targets.
• Select and derate components based on failure data and mission profiles.
• Advise system architects on hardware safety constraints and review PCB layouts.
• Collaborate with electronics, firmware, and systems teams to integrate safety functions.
• Create and maintain Functional Safety documentation for hardware modules.
