Summary

Tata Elxsi brings together the best technology and user-centric design expertise to help customers deliver innovative solutions and great consumer experiences. Our integrated Design and Technology teams help enterprises reimagine their products and services – from strategy, consumer research and insights, to service and experience design, technology implementation, integration, launch, and beyond.

 

Discover opportunities to work with bright and passionate teams on challenging projects, learn and master the latest automotive software and digital technologies, and grow with us.

We are looking for someone with below:

Key Responsibilities

● Diagnostic Algorithm Design & Implementation: Architect and implement real-time diagnostic monitors in modern C++, including signal-level plausibility checks, degradation detection, and fault isolation logic. Perform software unit testing, HIL testing, and automated regression tests to validate diagnostic algorithms prior to final implementation

● Diagnostic Requirement Engineering: Author formal diagnostic monitor requirements (detection thresholds, debounce strategies, fault response actions) traceable to system-level or component level failure modes; verify requirements against fleet and bench data.

● Data-Driven Analysis & Validation: Leverage large-scale fleet data in Databricks to characterize faults, tune detection thresholds, validate algorithm performance (detection rate, false-positive rate), and drive continuous improvement.

● Fault Troubleshooting & Root Cause Analysis: Lead investigation of field-reported faults using telemetry, logged data, and replay tools; identify root causes spanning hardware, firmware, calibration, and environmental factors.

]● Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: Produce clear technical specifications, design documents, and service procedures that enable Fleet Operations technicians to diagnose and resolve faults efficiently.

● Continuous Improvement: Monitor fleet-wide diagnostic KPIs; propose and implement algorithm refinements, new monitors, and process improvements.

 

Qualifications

● Education: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical field. Master's degree preferred

● Experience: 6–8 years of professional experience in diagnostics, embedded controls, or vehicle systems engineering within the automotive, autonomous vehicle, aerospace, or robotics industry. Required Skills

● Vehicle Diagnostics Expertise: Working knowledge of diagnostic standards and protocols (UDS / ISO 14229, DTC management, OBD-II / SAE J1979) and communication buses (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet).

● Data Analysis: Proficiency with Python for data analysis and visualization; experience working with large-scale telemetry datasets (Databricks, or equivalent).

● C++ Proficiency: Strong, demonstrable C++ development skills in production or safety-critical environments;

● Control & Estimation Theory: Hands-on experience designing and implementing control algorithms, state estimators, or model-based diagnostic observers.

● Problem Solving: Proven ability to systematically decompose complex, multi-domain problems and drive them to root cause under ambiguity.

● Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to present technical analyses and recommendations to both engineering peers and non-technical stakeholders. Preferred Skills

● Experience with implementing prognostics or vehicle health monitoring

● Experience with HIL/SIL testing frameworks for diagnostic validation.
