Role summary

This is a hands-on technical leadership role focused on system-level investigation, ECU integration, embedded systems triage and vehicle electronics validation. You will own the technical diagnosis of complex electrical and electronic issues across ECUs, sensors, communication networks and embedded software interfaces, driving structured fault isolation and robust closure across bench, HIL and vehicle environments. Positions 4.

Key responsibilities

• Lead system-level triage of vehicle electronics concerns, owning investigation plans, fault trees, diagnostic hypotheses, evidence capture and closure.

• Integrate ECUs and electronic subsystems into vehicle platforms, ensuring interface compatibility, signal integrity, timing, diagnostics and functional behaviour.

• Analyse signals across CAN, CAN-FD, LIN and Ethernet using trace tools and communication matrices.

• Debug sensor and electronics issues using schematics, pinouts, wiring diagrams and ECU I/O maps, and support UDS diagnostics development.

• Use HIL, bench rigs and vehicle testing to reproduce concerns, confirm fixes and provide traceable sign-off evidence.

• Coordinate with software, hardware, diagnostics, calibration, validation and supplier teams, and support FMEA, FMEDA and safety and cybersecurity impact reviews.

Qualifications

• Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Embedded Systems, Automotive Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related discipline.

• Strong hands-on experience in automotive electronics, ECU integration, embedded systems debugging and system-level issue triage.

Skills required

• Vehicle EE architecture, ECU communication, signal analysis and diagnostics.

• Vector CANoe, CANalyzer, CANape or equivalent; UDS; CAN, CAN-FD, LIN and Automotive Ethernet.

• HIL and bench platforms such as dSPACE, ETAS or NI; INCA or equivalent calibration tools.

• Python, CAPL or MATLAB/Simulink for trace processing and investigation workflows.

• Awareness of ISO 26262, ISO 21434 and ASPICE.

• Clear communication of complex technical issues to engineering, supplier and leadership audiences.

Benefits

• Employer contributions to a workplace pension scheme.

• Performance-linked pay: high performers are recognised through in-year salary reviews and do not need to wait for the annual appraisal.

• Hybrid working across the 3SC office, client sites and home.
