Functional Safety – ISO 26262
ASIL is the gate.
Every safety-relevant programme at every OEM and Tier-1 runs on ISO 26262. Learn to work inside it properly – from HARA to safety case – alongside your day job.
The standard is not optional.
ISO 26262 governs every safety-relevant electrical and electronic system in a modern vehicle, and compliance evidence is asked for at type approval. Yet most engineers meet it sideways – a HARA template someone else built, a coverage target nobody explained, a safety manual they were told to skim. The result is engineers who can name the parts of the standard but cannot defend an ASIL determination in a review. This cohort closes that gap: you carry one item from item definition to safety case, and you do the work rather than watch it.
What you’ll walk away able to do
- Run a HARA and determine ASIL with reasoning that survives review
- Write safety goals, functional safety requirements and technical safety requirements
- Apply ASIL decomposition and freedom from interference correctly – and spot when others have not
- Read a semiconductor Safety Manual and interpret SPFM, LFM and PMHF
- Assemble a safety case and trace a safety goal end to end
- Tell functional safety, SOTIF and cybersecurity apart – three different failure questions
Who it’s for
Built for practising engineers.
- A practising embedded or automotive engineer moving onto a safety-relevant programme
- A software or systems engineer who keeps being handed safety requirements without the context behind them
- A testing or validation engineer who wants to understand why the coverage targets are what they are
- An engineer eyeing the semiconductor side, where the same skill commands a different pay band
Probably not for you if: you have no embedded or automotive engineering background.
