Writes safety behavior requirements and leads risk evaluations for autonomous trucks, identifying functional insufficiencies and triggering conditions (e.g., severe weather, glare) and defining acceptance criteria such as S>0, C>0 analyses. Works cross-functionally with systems engineering, behavioral safety, and autonomy teams on traceability, V&V readiness, and hazard analysis. Requirements follow ISO 21448, ISO 26262, and ISO/PAS 8800, with V&V across simulation, closed-course testing, and field operations.
About the Company
At Torc, we have always believed that autonomous vehicle technology will transform how we travel, move freight, and do business.
A leader in autonomous driving since 2007, Torc has spent over a decade commercializing our solutions with experienced partners.
Now a part of the Daimler family
, we are focused solely on developing software for automated trucks to transform how the world moves freight.
Join us and catapult your career with the company that helped pioneer autonomous technology and the first AV software company with the vision to partner directly with a truck manufacturer.
Meet the Team
This role supports the creation of safe behavior requirements and leads risk evaluations, identifies functional insufficiencies and triggering conditions (FI-TC; e.g., severe weather, glare, or rare edge cases), and defines acceptance criteria (such as S>0, C>0 analyses). Furthermore, the role supports the execution framework that enables the safe and scalable deployment of autonomous functions across various platforms and operational domains.
As autonomy systems increase complexity, this position supports safety requirements, as well as systems engineering, V&V, and operational activities. The candidate will work cross-functionally with systems engineering, behavioral safety, and autonomy. The role ensures requirements traceability, verification and validation readiness, risk management, and alignment of safety objectives with program milestones.
