As a Safety Enablement Engineer (f/m/d), you will play a key role in improving the efficiency, consistency, and quality of workflows related to safety product development. You will act as a bridge across multiple functions, enabling seamless collaboration through optimized tools, automation, and well-defined methodologies.

The role combines hands-on development with architectural thinking: you will both build solutions and define frameworks that shape how safety engineering work is executed across the organization.

Your Responsibilities

• Enable efficient and standardized safety workflows across cross-functional teams
• Design, implement, and continuously improve methodologies, processes, and toolchains for safety engineering
• Develop automation solutions using scripting and APIs to improve productivity and reduce manual effort
• Ensure interoperability and integration between various engineering tools and platforms
• Leverage AI-based approaches where meaningful to enhance efficiency and data usage
• Build automated reports and dashboards (e.g., for status tracking and project transparency)
• Create and maintain high-quality documentation, consolidating insights from multiple internal systems
• Support teams in adopting improved workflows and tools, acting as a technical enabler and advisor

Your Profile

• 10+ years of relevant experience in semiconductor or a related high-tech industry
• Strong expertise in tooling, automation, and engineering workflows
• Proven experience in:
  • Scripting and software development (e.g., Python, Java)
  • Designing and implementing automation solutions and scalable workflows
• Experience working with engineering tools such as:
  • Jira, Git (GitHub/Bitbucket)
  • ELM / requirements management tools
  • System modeling tools
  • Safety analysis tools
• Solid understanding of configuration management environments
• Ability to operate on both levels:
  • Hands-on developer (implementing scripts and integrations)
  • Architect (defining methodologies and best practices)
• Experience in cross-functional collaboration and working across diverse tool landscapes
• Strong analytical mindset with a focus on efficiency, automation, and scalability
• Ideally experience with AI tools or automation platforms (e.g., Copilot, Power BI, Power Automate)
• Ideally a background in functional safety environments

Please note: The successful candidate may/will be responsible for security related tasks. The assignment may/will be in scope of security certifications, therefore a conscious and reliable way of working is necessary
