What Youll Do

Test Platform Architecture & Automation

• Design and build scalable Python & C++ automation frameworks for embedded device testing
• Enable end-to-end test coverage across firmware, perception algorithms, and system software
• Implement requirements-to-test-to-defect traceability matrices for compliance and audit readiness
• Drive automation across functional, regression, performance, and security test layers

Technical Leadership

• Lead and mentor a team of test infrastructure and automation engineers
• Establish coding standards, best practices, and continuous improvement culture
• Own code quality through structured reviews and technical design sessions

Embedded & Automotive Validation

• Build validation pipelines using SIL, HIL, simulators, and physical testbeds
• Drive quality strategy for complex embedded Linux systems
• Partner with firmware, DSP, perception, and QA teams on test requirements

DevOps & CI/CD Excellence

• Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and modern tooling
• Leverage Docker/Kubernetes for scalable test execution
• Drive rapid feedback loops across development sprints

Compliance & Safety

• Ensure adherence to ISO 26262, AUTOSAR, ASPICE standards
• Translate regulatory requirements into automated quality frameworks

What Were Looking For

Required Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field
• 812 years of experience testing embedded systems, ideally in automotive or safety-critical domains
• Expert proficiency in Python & C++ for automation frameworks
• Hands-on experience with:
• HIL/SIL environments and simulation platforms
• Embedded Linux, SSH, shell scripting, networking
• REST APIs, UI automation (Selenium/Playwright)
• Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines
• Strong systems-level debugging and root cause analysis skills
• Ability to translate complex problems into executable sprint stories

Nice to Have

• Deep knowledge of automotive software stacks (ADAS, EV systems, infotainment)
• Experience with JAMA or equivalent requirements management tools
• Strong Agile/Scrum experience using JIRA, Bitbucket
• Exposure to large-scale distributed test infrastructure

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge autonomous and embedded platforms impacting real-world safety
• Own core test architecture used across multiple product lines
• Lead high-impact engineering initiatives from concept to production
• Fast-moving, high-ownership culture with real technical influence
