About Lucid At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity.

In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience. We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence.

By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility. We are currently seeking Staff System Engineer – ADAS/AD Safety to join our ADAS/AD team. We are looking for a system safety engineer who will lead the functional safety (ISO 26262) and SOTIF foundation for our ADAS features, while also owning the safety case framework for our higher-level automated driving functions.

This role establishes the core safety processes, artifacts, and safety case architecture that the company will scale as our products evolve. This is a hands-on technical role with significant influence on process, tooling, and culture. ).

This role is located on-site at Headquarters in Newark, CA.

Responsibilities

: · Collaborate with the Function Safety team to jointly review and align on HARA, Safety Goals (SG), for ADAS and AD features.

Requirements

, ensuring proper allocation to sensors, ECUs, software modules, actuators, vehicle networks, and operational assets. · Integrate SOTIF thinking into the safety case: performance limitations, triggering conditions, misuse and edge-case scenarios, especially for perception and AI/ML components. · Define and own the end-to-end safety case framework for ADAS/AD stack (structure, claims, argumentation style, and evidence model).

, using GSN or equivalent notations). · Act as the technical focal point for safety case topics in design reviews, release gates, and change control boards. , safety board, safety metrics).

Required Qualifications

: · Bachelors in System Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science · 8+ years of related experience in system safety, functional safety, or safety assurance for autonomous systems, ADAS, robotics, or similar safety-critical domains. · Demonstrated experience with at least one full safety lifecycle (concept through SOP/launch) for a complex system. , HARA, FMEA, FTA, STPA) and their integration into a traceable safety argument.

· Strong written communication skills; able to author clear safety concepts, analyses, and safety case documentation targeted at both engineers and leadership. · Strong systems thinking: comfortable reasoning from high-level societal/operational risk down to implementation details. · High ownership bias: willing to create structure where none exists and drive alignment across teams.
