About this event

If you work on safety-critical automotive systems, you already know that architecture decisions and requirement allocation are where clarity is either built in early or paid for later. This virtual session focuses on one of the most important parts of ISO 26262 practice: translating safety intent into a system architecture and assigning requirements in a way that is structured, defensible, and useful across teams. About the Event This online event is centered on ISO 26262 system architecture and requirement allocation—a topic that sits at the intersection of functional safety, systems engineering, and practical product development. Rather than staying at the level of abstract standard language, the discussion is designed to help attendees think through how architecture choices shape safety

Who should attend

This is for you if you want a clearer, more practical understanding of how ISO 26262 work gets translated into real system architecture and actionable requirements. - You work in **functional safety** and want to strengthen how you think about requirement allocation, traceability, and system-level structure. - You are a **systems engineer or architect** responsible for defining elements, interfaces, or decomposition choices that affect safety outcomes. - You collaborate across **hardware, software, systems, or safety teams** and need better shared language for discussing where requirements belong and how they should flow down. - You are involved in **automotive product development** and want to understand how architecture decisions support compliance, verification, and cross-team alignment. - You are building your knowledge of **ISO 26262** and want a community-oriented setting where the topic is serious, but the format is approachable. - You enjoy learning through both **technical discussion and peer exchange**, and want to meet others thinking carefully about safety-critical engineering problems. If you have ever looked at a system design and wondered whether the safety requirements were allocated in the clearest or most defensible way, you are likely to get a lot out of this session.
