Electrical Validation Engineer

Job: Senior Electrical/Systems Test Engineer

What the job involves

We are seeking an Electrical/Systems Test Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will play a critical part in the testing and validation of our hardware systems. You will work on Electrical/system testing, validation, and hardware debugging of electrical components and systems involving edge processors, cameras and Linux environment.

Responsibilities

You will be responsible for system-level testing & debugging, and hardware/software integration for edgeAI devices (cameras, onboard computers, telemetry modules) used in transit and enforcement systems.

• System Debugging: Diagnose and resolve functional or performance issues in systems combining edge processors (e.g., ARM-based SoCs), camera sensors, and embedded Linux platforms.
• Hardware/Software Troubleshooting: Work across electrical interfaces (MIPI-CSI, USB, I2C, etc.) and low-level software layers.
• Linux Debugging: Use Linux tools (e.g., dmesg, strace, gdb, perf, systemd, journalctl) for root cause analysis.
• Python Automation: Develop and maintain Python-based tools and test scripts for regression testing, system monitoring, and validation workflows.
• Design and execute test plans, Build and maintain test benches, cable harnesses, designs fixtures, and improve automated test systems.
• Debug and troubleshoot electrical issues, including power supply, signal integrity, and EMI/EMC etc.,
• Support electrical compliance and qualification testing processes.
• Assist in prototype bringup, lab debugging (scopes, VNAs, logic analyzers).

• Perform functional, performance, and environmental testing to validate designs.
• Develop test setups and procedures to validate hardware performance and compliance with industry standards.

Qualifications

• Bachelor s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or a related field.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in system-level debugging & testing of embedded platforms (preferably in edgeAI, automotive, or any embedded systems having camera).
• Experience with Altium, Orcad, SPICE; schematic capture and PCB layout understanding.
• Hands on experience with Linux kernel and user-space debugging tools.
• Experience with electrical test equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and power analyzers.
• Experience with Python scripting, preferably for test automation or data analysis.
• Familiarity with EMI/EMC standards and mitigation techniques.
• Worked or has experience with high and low speed interfaces - PCIe, USB, UARTs, GMSL, LVDS, MIPI, I2C, SPI, Ethernet, CAN etc.,
• Experience with designing and compliance testing for ESD, EMI, UL, SAE, Automotive standards.

Preferred Skills

• Knowledge of thermal management in electronic systems.
• Understanding camera optics and image signal processing is a plus.
