Product Engineer – Automotive Passive Safety Systems (OEM Manufacturing)

Job Category: Engineering & Manufacturing
Location: Multiple
Job Type: Full-time
Req. ID: APE02971

What to Expect

At SkyGuard Innovations, we are redefining automotive safety by developing cutting-edge passive safety systems for OEM vehicle manufacturers. Our mission is to engineer advanced electronic safety restraint control systems, including intelligent crash detection, AI-powered safety modules, and next-generation occupant protection solutions.

As a Hardware Engineer, you will be instrumental in designing, developing, and optimizing automotive passive safety hardware for OEM integration. This includes ECUs (Electronic Control Units), advanced sensor ( RSU ) networks, and AI-assisted impact response systems. You will work closely with Tier 1 suppliers, automotive manufacturers, and regulatory agencies to ensure that our passive safety solutions exceed global industry standards for crash mitigation, impact absorption, and occupant protection.

What You’ll Do

1️⃣ Design & Develop Next-Generation OEM Passive Safety Systems

  • Develop advanced ECU architectures for passive safety restraint systems, including airbag control modules, crash detection sensors, and automated impact response systems.

  • Design sensor fusion systems that integrate accelerometers, gyroscopes, and radar-based crash detection technology.

  • Implement fail-safe mechanisms to ensure instantaneous response in critical vehicle impact situations.

  • Develop high-speed data processing systems to analyze real-time vehicle dynamics and deploy passive safety measures.

2️⃣ Prototype & Validate OEM Automotive Safety Systems

  • Lead prototype development of AI-powered crash detection modules and electronic restraint systems.

  • Conduct rigorous safety testing, including crash simulations, high-impact stress tests, and real-world vehicle integration trials.

  • Ensure compliance with NCAP, FMVSS, ECE R94, and ISO 26262 safety regulations.

  • Work with OEM partners and Tier 1 suppliers to integrate our passive safety technologies into next-generation vehicles.

3️⃣ Optimize for Mass Production & OEM Integration

  • Develop scalable manufacturing processes for high-volume passive safety system production.

  • Optimize PCB layout, electronic components, and power management for OEM vehicle deployment.

  • Implement DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFT (Design for Testability) best practices.

  • Ensure cost-effective component selection without compromising performance and reliability.

4️⃣ Collaborate with Cross-Functional Teams & Regulatory Bodies

  • Work with AI software engineers to develop machine-learning models for crash prediction and safety optimization.

  • Collaborate with automotive cybersecurity experts to implement secure data transmission for connected vehicle safety.

  • Work with OEM R&D teams to develop custom safety solutions for electric, hybrid, and autonomous vehicles.

  • Conduct regulatory compliance testing to meet global automotive safety standards..

What You’ll Bring

  • Strong expertise in automotive electronic hardware design (PCB design, ECUs, safety modules).

  • Experience with passive safety systems, including airbags, seatbelt pre-tensioners, crash sensors, and impact absorption modules.

  • Proficiency in automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet). Expertise in embedded systems, microcontrollers, and real-time safety-critical applications.

  • Experience in sensor fusion, accelerometer-based crash detection, and AI-assisted safety analytics.

  • Familiarity with functional safety standards (ISO 26262, ASIL-D, FMVSS, NCAP, ECE R94).

  • Hands-on experience with automotive safety testing, impact simulations, and crash response validation.

  • Ability to work with Tier 1 suppliers and OEM manufacturers for seamless vehicle integration.
