Responsibilities:

1. System Architecture & Design:

• Develop and maintain end-to-end system architectures for truck and trailer tire monitoring systems.
• Define and document system-level performance, reliability, and cybersecurity requirements aligned with fleet use cases.
• Collaborate with product managers, algorithm teams, hardware engineers, and fleet customers to translate operational needs into scalable solutions.

2. Sensor & Hardware Integration:

• Design and integrate tire-mounted sensors, trailer-mounted gateways, and vehicle telematics devices.
• Ensure interoperability across tractors and trailers, including mixed-fleet and retrofit scenarios.
• Support vehicle validation and interface with SAE J1939 / CAN protocols as needed.

3. System Validation & Testing:

• Develop test strategies for on-vehicle and bench testing of tire monitoring and alerting systems.
• Execute field testing with fleets to verify sensor accuracy, cloud connectivity, and alert logic.
• Support troubleshooting during fleet trials and early-stage deployments.

4. Cloud & Data Integration:

• Leverage AWS-based platforms to enable real-time data collection, health scoring, and remote diagnostics.
• Work closely with data engineers to define API interactions, data models, and over-the-air (OTA) communication paths.

5. Documentation & Compliance:

• Create and maintain system documentation including architecture diagrams, interface definitions, and test reports.
• Support compliance to industry standards and fleet safety regulations (e.g., FMCSA, 49 CFR 393.52).

Requirements:

• Bachelor's/master's degree in electrical, Mechanical, Computer Engineering, automotive or related field.
• Strong understanding of vehicle systems, especially in commercial fleets (Class 6-8 trucks and trailers).
• Experience with model-based development tools (MATLAB/Simulink).
• Proficiency in AWS or other cloud platforms and IoT architectures.
• Experience with sensor integration, hardware/software co-design, and validation.
• Experience with fleet telematics platforms, tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), or TaaS models.
• Familiarity with SAE J1939, CAN bus, and vehicle diagnostics standards.
• Exposure to ISO 26262 or automotive safety-critical systems development.
• Experience working with Salesforce to support customer-facing solutions, case management, or integration with cloud-based platforms.
