Systems Engineer Fleets
- The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (Akron, OH)
-
We are seeking a highly skilled Systems Engineer to join our Fleet Solutions team, focused on delivering next-generation connected tire monitoring technologies for commercial trucks and trailers. This role will contribute to the development and deployment of advanced fleet health systems, including Tire-as-a-Service (TaaS) platforms, leveraging tire-mounted sensors, vehicle telematics, and cloud-based analytics (AWS). You will play a key role in designing, integrating, and validating intelligent solutions that enhance tire safety, uptime, and fleet efficiency.
What You’ll Do:
1. System Architecture & Design:
+ Develop and maintain end-to-end system architectures for truck and trailer tire monitoring systems.
+ Define and document system-level performance, reliability, and cybersecurity requirements aligned with fleet use cases.
+ Collaborate with product managers, algorithm teams, hardware engineers, and fleet customers to translate operational needs into scalable solutions.
2. Sensor & Hardware Integration:
+ Design and integrate tire-mounted sensors, trailer-mounted gateways, and vehicle telematics devices.
+ Ensure interoperability across tractors and trailers, including mixed-fleet and retrofit scenarios.
+ Support vehicle validation and interface with SAE J1939 / CAN protocols as needed.
3. System Validation & Testing:
+ Develop test strategies for on-vehicle and bench testing of tire monitoring and alerting systems.
+ Execute field testing with fleets to verify sensor accuracy, cloud connectivity, and alert logic.
+ Support troubleshooting during fleet trials and early-stage deployments.
4. Cloud & Data Integration:
+ Leverage AWS-based platforms to enable real-time data collection, health scoring, and remote diagnostics.
+ Work closely with data engineers to define API interactions, data models, and over-the-air (OTA) communication paths.
5. Documentation & Compliance:
+ Create and maintain system documentation including architecture diagrams, interface definitions, and test reports.
+ Support compliance to industry standards and fleet safety regulations (e.g., FMCSA, 49 CFR 393.52).
What We’re Looking For:
+ Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Computer Engineering, or related field.
+ Strong understanding of vehicle systems, especially in commercial fleets (Class 6–8 trucks and trailers).
+ Experience with model-based development tools (MATLAB/Simulink).
+ Proficiency in AWS or other cloud platforms and IoT architectures.
+ Experience with sensor integration, hardware/software co-design, and validation.
What Will Set You Apart:
+ Master’s degree in Systems, Mechatronics, or Automotive Engineering.
+ Experience with fleet telematics platforms, tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), or TaaS models.
+ Familiarity with SAE J1939, CAN bus, and vehicle diagnostics standards.
+ Knowledge of machine learning, predictive analytics, or real-time alerting systems.
+ Exposure to ISO 26262 or automotive safety-critical systems development.
+ Experience working with Salesforce to support customer-facing solutions, case management, or integration with cloud-based platforms.
