Diagnostics Engineer

Role: Diagnostics Engineer

Work Location: Foster City, CA

Responsibilities:

Diagnostic Algorithm Design & Implementation

Architect and implement real-time diagnostic monitors in modern C++, including signal-level plausibility checks, degradation detection, and fault isolation logic. Perform software unit testing, HIL testing, and automated regression tests to validate diagnostic algorithms prior to final implementation

Diagnostic Requirement Engineering

Author formal diagnostic monitor requirements (detection thresholds, debounce strategies, fault response actions) traceable to system-level or component level failure modes; verify requirements against fleet and bench data.

Skills: 6–8 years of professional experience in diagnostics, embedded controls, or vehicle systems engineering within the automotive, autonomous vehicle.

Working knowledge of diagnostic standards and protocols (UDS / ISO 14229, DTC management, OBD-II / SAE J1979) and communication buses (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet).

Proficiency with C /C++

Hands-on experience designing and implementing control algorithms, state estimators, or model-based diagnostic observers.
