We are seeking a Sr. Staff MCU BSW Engineer – Functional Safety ( FuSa ) to lead the development and integration of safety-critical base software on automotive microcontroller (MCU) platforms. This role focuses on implementing software that complies with ISO 26262, enabling ASIL-rated ECUs such as Zonal Controllers, Body Modules, and Powertrain Systems.

As a senior technical contributor within the Base Software (BSW) Engineering team at Stellantis, you will help architect safety features, integrate diagnostics, and ensure system reliability in alignment with modern automotive safety standards.

Key Responsibilities:

Design and implement safety mechanisms within BSW modules—including OS, hardware abstraction, and service layers—in compliance with ISO 26262 functional safety standards

Define and maintain software safety architecture, covering fault detection, error handling, and memory protection strategies

Implement and validate safety mechanisms for ASIL SW components, including unit testing and verification activities aligned with ISO 26262 processes to ensure software maturity, traceability, and test coverage.

Collaborate with system safety engineers to decompose safety goals into software-level requirements and design elements

Develop and integrate safety-critical mechanisms such as watchdog timers, clock monitors, lock-step core configurations, Memory protection, task monitoring and ensure system integrity and fault detection

Support system safety engineers for the creation of safety work products, including safety plans, software safety requirements, technical safety concepts, and safety case documentation

Ensure safe integration of AUTOSAR OS, MCAL, and BSW modules by working closely with OS and driver development teams

Conduct software safety analyses, fault injection, timing analysis, and structural coverage analysis

Ensure compliance with industry standards, including ASPICE, MISRA C, and ISO 26262

Actively participate in Agile development processes, including sprint planning, code reviews, and continuous improvement initiatives

Document safety architecture, design decisions, and integration guidelines to support traceability and audit readiness
