Requirements Engineer – ADAS Systems (with System Test background)

Project description

We are looking for a Requirements Engineer with a strong background in system testing to join our (ADAS) team to join our ADAS project with a German OEM. In this role, you will own the requirements lifecycle for a specific ADAS feature , from elicitation through refinement and formal specification, while also contributing directly to validation and system test activities. This dual-focus position bridges requirements engineering and verification/validation, ensuring that what is specified can be effectively and traceably tested.

Responsibilities

• Collect, analyze, and refine stakeholder needs (OEM, system architects, function owners) for a defined ADAS feature Write clear, unambiguous, and testable requirements at system and software level, following automotive standards (ISO 26262, ASPICE) Maintain requirement traceability across the V-model (from concept to test cases) using tools such as DOORS NG, Polarion, Jama, or Codebeamer Manage requirement change requests, impact analysis, and version control Collaborate with system architects to ensure requirements are technically feasible and consistent with the overall system design Support requirement reviews, walkthroughs, and baselining activities Derive test cases and test specifications directly from requirements Support/perform system-level validation testing (HiL, SiL, vehicle-level, or test bench) for the assigned ADAS feature Analyze test results, identify gaps between specification and actual system behavior, and feed findings back into requirement refinement Contribute to test strategy and coverage analysis to ensure requirement-to-test traceability Support defect analysis and root cause investigation in collaboration with development and test teams

SKILLS

Must have

• 4+ years of experience in automotive requirements engineering and/or system-level testing, with exposure to the full V-model development process Degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Science, Mechatronics, or related field Experience in requirements engineering within automotive/embedded systems, ideally ADAS or active safety Hands-on experience with system-level testing (HiL, SiL, or vehicle testing) Familiarity with automotive standards: ISO 26262 (Functional Safety), ASPICE, ISO 21448 (SOTIF). Experience with requirement management tools (DOORS NG, Polarion, Jama Connect, or similar) Understanding of the V-model development process Strong analytical skills and attention to detail in writing testable, traceable requirements Good communication skills to work across cross-functional teams (development, system, test, safety)

Nice to have

Experience with specific ADAS features (AEB, ACC, LKA, Parking Assist, etc.) Scripting/automation experience (Python) for test automation Knowledge of sensor technologies (camera, radar, lidar) and sensor fusion Familiarity with MBSE tools (e.g., Enterprise Architect, Rhapsody)
