The team works collaboratively across engineering divisions to prevent defects, improve development processes, assess the quality of engineering work products, and strengthen compliance throughout the product development lifecycle. Within Operational Safety and Engineering Quality, the Engineering Quality Management (EQM) team provides quality assurance activities by applying the Quality Management System (QMS), supporting process adherence, and promoting complete end-to-end traceability of the product digital thread. EQM works with Systems, Software, Hardware, and Verification and Validation teams to support the integrity of engineering deliverables and the objective evidence needed for product milestones and releases.\nWhat you’ll do:\nThe Engineer II - Systems and Software Quality is an individual contributor within the Engineering Quality Management (EQM) team. This role supports the definition, implementation and execution of engineering quality assurance activities across systems and software development for Torc’s autonomous driving product line. The engineer works with Systems, Software, Hardware, and Verification and Validation teams, and other cross-functional teams to assess process adherence, improve work products, maintain end-to-end traceability, and ensure that objective evidence is available to support product milestones and releases.\nA successful candidate will be detail-oriented, collaborative, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, safety-critical engineering environment. The candidate will apply quality practices and relevant industry standards to identify gaps early, help resolve process issues, and strengthen the integrity of engineering deliverables and the product digital thread.\nResponsibilities\nSupport the implementation and continuous improvement of engineering quality processes, and collaborate with Systems, Software, Hardware Development, and V&V teams throughout the product lifecycle.\nReview systems and software work products for completeness, consistency, process adherence, and objective evidence across requirements, architecture, design, implementation, integration, verification, and validation.\nAssess end-to-end bidirectional traceability from product and system requirements through software requirements, design, implementation, test cases, results, anomalies, and release evidence; identify and help resolve traceability gaps.\nVerify requirements allocation and verification linkage and confirm that changes are assessed for impact and that affected work products and trace links are updated before baselining or release.\nPerform process and work-product assessments against Torc’s QMS, engineering procedures, project plans, and applicable standards, including ISO 26262, ASPICE, ISO/SAE 21434, ISO 21448, and ISO 9001.\nDocument quality risks, nonconformities, and work-product gaps; support root cause analysis and track corrective and preventive actions through closure.\nSupport internal and external audits/assessments by preparing objective evidence, reviewing artifacts, and coordinating responses to assessment findings.\nMonitor and report quality and traceability measures, including requirement coverage, verification linkage, review status, open findings, action closure, and baseline completeness.\nSupport release artifact readiness and configuration management by verifying that applicable work products, configuration items, and baselines are identified, versioned, controlled, and traceable in lifecycle tools.\nProvide practical quality and process guidance to engineering teams, contribute to training and continuous improvement, and communicate assigned work progress, risks, and release concerns.\n\nWhat you’ll need to succeed:\nBachelor’s degree in computer science, computer engineering, systems engineering, electrical engineering, or a related technical field.\nTypically, 5-7 years of experience in systems engineering, software engineering, engineering quality assurance, process assurance, or a related discipline; equivalent relevant experience may also be considered.\nWorking knowledge of systems and/or software development lifecycles, including requirements engineering, architecture, design, implementation, integration, verification, and validation.\nUnderstanding of requirements management and end-to-end bidirectional traceability, including requirement decomposition, allocation, change impact analysis, verification methods, and coverage assessment.\nFamiliarity with safety-critical product development and quality management practices; exposure to ISO 26262, ASPICE, ISO/SAE 21434, ISO 21448, or ISO 9001.\nExperience reviewing engineering work products for completeness, consistency, compliance, and objective evidence.\nFamiliarity with lifecycle management, requirements management, defect tracking, configuration management, and test management tools.\nStrong analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to identify gaps and follow issues through resolution.\nClear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate constructively across multidisciplinary engineering teams.\nAbility to manage multiple assignments, adapt to changing priorities, and work effectively in a fast-paced environment with evolving software and hardware systems.\nCommitment to continuous improvement, process discipline, product quality, and safety.\nBonus Points!\nExperience with autonomous vehicles, ADAS features or robotics platforms.\nHands-on experience with ASPICE process assessments and implementation of ISO 26262 and SOTIF-aligned development processes.\nExperience configuring or administering requirements, ALM, PLM, test management, defect tracking, and configuration management tools.\nExperience developing traceability matrices, quality dashboards, audit checklists, or automated work-product and coverage reports.\nUnderstanding of safety analyses and their relationships to system/software requirements and verification evidence.\nExperience supporting product releases, engineering baselines, internal audits or, external assessments.\nPerks of Being a Full-time Torc’r\nTorc cares about our team members and strives to provide benefits and resources to support their health, work/life balance, and future.
