## Description

We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.

In this position, you will be part of a cutting-edge team revolutionizing Power Supply Architectures for our next-generation vehicles across global platforms. As the "reliability architect," you will ensure the robustness of the foundational electrical systems that power everything from advanced infotainment to safety-critical autonomous driving capabilities.

## Responsibilities

- Lead Robustness Analysis: Spearhead the FMA (Failure Mode Analysis) process for 12V and 48V Power Supply Architectures, identifying potential failure modes early in the design cycle to influence architectural decisions.

- Architect Failure Models: Develop and maintain comprehensive Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams, and Interface Matrices to visualize and document system interactions and potential error states within the Power Supply Architecture.

- Drive DFMEA Excellence: Facilitate and lead Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) sessions with cross-functional teams, ensuring that every potential risk in the power distribution and management system is mitigated.

- Collaborate on Design Integration: Act as a key interface with component engineers and system architects to ensure the hardware Power Supply Architecture is optimized for maximum uptime, fault tolerance, and seamless vehicle integration.

- Innovate with AI: Leverage AI-driven tools and modern data methods to automate failure mode detection and optimize the efficiency of the FMA process.

## Qualifications

- Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a closely related technical field.

- Demonstrated experience in the design, analysis, sizing, or verification of automotive electrical systems, specifically with low voltage Power Supply Architectures (12V and/or 48V).

- 3+ years of demonstrated experience and strong understanding of Systems Engineering principles and FMA/FMEA methodologies (e.g., DFMEA, Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams).

- Experience in applying ISO 26262 functional safety standards (or equivalent safety-critical industry standards) in a hardware or systems domain.

- Capability to effectively utilize AI tools and methods for analysis, optimization, or engineering problem-solving.

## Benefits

- Immediate medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage

- Flexible family care days, paid parental leave, new parent ramp-up programs, subsidized back-up child care and more

- Family building benefits including adoption and surrogacy expense reimbursement, fertility treatments, and more

- Vehicle discount program for employees and family members and management leases

- Tuition assistance

- Established and active employee resource groups

- Paid time off for individual and team community service

- A generous schedule of paid holidays, including the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day

- Paid time off and the option to purchase additional vacation time.

## Skills

### Required
- Electrical Engineering
- Systems Engineering
- FMA/FMEA methodologies
- ISO 26262 functional safety standards
- AI tools and methods

### Nice to have
- Master’s degree or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering
- Experience with complex vehicle electrical architectures
- Professional certification in Six Sigma or Reliability Engineering
