Here at Scout Motors, we're carrying forward the heritage of one of the most iconic American vehicles in history. A vehicle dating back to 1960. One that forged the path for future generations of rugged SUVs and trucks and will do so once again.

But Scout is more than just a brand, it’s a legacy steeped in a culture of exploration, caretaking, and hard work.

The Scout brand is all about respect. Respect for the past and the future by taking an iconic American brand that hasn’t been around for a while, electrifying it, digitizing it, and loading it with American innovation. Respect for communities by creating a company that stands for its people and its customers. Respect for both work and play, with vehicles that are equally at home at a camp site, a job site, or on a Tuesday commute. And respect for our customers by developing two powertrains that meet their requirements — an all-electric powertrain as well as the Harvester™ range extender powertrain which includes a built-in gas-powered generator with an estimated 500 miles of combined range.

At Scout Motors, we empower our talented, inclusive, and entrepreneurial teams to innovate. What makes a Scout employee? Someone who is a visionary and a leader, who seeks new paths and shares lessons learned. A knowledgeable doer who collaborates across the company to build better. A go-getter with unrivaled passion.

Join us at Scout Motors and be part of shaping the future of transportation. If you're ready to drive change and make history, apply now!

What you’ll do

At Scout Motors , you don't just design vehicles- you shape the future of the road. Our Engineering team is where bold ideas meet rigorous execution, building machines that are as durable and capable as the people who drive them. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with brilliant minds across disciplines, turning complex challenges into elegant, scalable solutions that meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and user experience. This is a place where your fingerprints are found on metal – where what you design gets built, driven, and remembered. If you're hungry to engineer something that matters, Scout Motors is where that ambition finds its highest gear.

We are seeking a Senior Automotive Network Integration Engineer to lead the design, architecture, and validation of in-vehicle communication networks across complex, software-defined vehicle platforms. You will own end-to-end network integration across ECUs, ensuring deterministic, secure, and scalable communication across all vehicle domains. This role is highly cross-functional, bridging EE architecture, embedded software, diagnostics, and vehicle systems engineering, with significant influence on platform-level design decisions. This person will define how all vehicle systems communicate robustly on the platform —directly shaping the reliability, scalability, and performance of the entire vehicle platform. Your decisions influence architecture direction across current and next-generation EV systems.

Become part of an iconic brand that is set to revolutionize the electric pick-up truck rugged SUV marketplace by achieving the following:

Define and lead validation strategy for vehicle communication networks: CAN / CAN FD, LIN, Automotive Ethernet (DoIP, SOME/IP)

Establish test coverage models for signal integrity, timing determinism, fault tolerance and degradation behavior to ensure traceability from requirements → signals → test cases → results

Own validation execution across multiple environments SIL, HIL (hardware-in-the-loop benches) and vehicle integration testing

Design scalable regression test suites for ECU communication systems

Ensure consistent behavior across simulated and real-world environments

Validate multi-ECU communication across distributed vehicle systems across powertrain, BMS, ADAS, chassis, body systems

Perform deep debugging of network issues such as CAN bus load saturation, message timing drift, signal corruption or loss, gateway routing failures etc.

Analyze ECU interactions under stress, fault injection, and edge conditions

Use diagnostic protocols (UDS – ISO 14229) to validate ECU behavior

Analyze large-scale CAN/Ethernet logs for intermittent failures, cross-ECU timing mismatches, system-level integration issues

Coordinate integration across Powertrain / Electrification (BMS, inverter, charging), Body Comfort, ADAS / AD compute platforms, Infotainment Connectivity, Central Compute / Zonal Controllers

Validate that system behavior meets system requirement specifications (SRS) under nominal conditions, boundary conditions, fault injection scenarios, high bus load scenarios, low voltage and cold crank conditions

Ensure feature-level integration synchronization, power mode management, Wake-up/sleep strategy robustness.

Own vehicle-level regression test planning, drive root cause analysis of cross-domain issues and help support integration war-room activities during DV/PV builds.
