Embedded Software Validation Engineer

We are seeking an Embedded Software Validation Engineer specializing in embedded systems with a focus on validating automotive firmware and applications. You will be responsible for designing, developing, maintaining, and scaling automated tests for our embedded software products, to ultimately validate functional and non-functional requirements. You will also be responsible for designing and bringing up test benches to launch software on production-intent hardware, on which you will author and execute automated tests. These tests will validate software features across various domains, including network communication, IoT and connectivity, multimedia, infotainment/UI, Android, and low-voltage power distribution.

What you ll do...
Create and execute test plans, test cases, and test scripts to validate functional, non-functional, and regression testing for embedded software components.
Design, develop, and maintain automated tests and tools on embedded software systems in automotive environments, including application-layer firmware, infotainment/UI, Android, and multimedia.
Design, build, bring-up, and scale remotely accessible test stations with production-intent hardware and peripherals, to accurately represent automotive environments.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to:
  • Review requirements for completeness and testability,
  • Analyze and provide feedback on system architecture
  • Build, review, and expand infrastructure needed to simulate automative behaviors and automate tests
  • Derive test scenarios from requirements, use cases and analysis of system design
  • Develop and test in tandem with developers, troubleshoot and resolve bugs, and raise the standard for high quality software and functionality through iteration and automation.
  • Participate in code reviews and provide feedback on testability and maintainability.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of testing processes, methodologies, and best practices.

Required:
  • Minimum of 5 years (preferably 8+) of experience in software testing, preferably with embedded systems.
  • Strong programming skills in Python, used in embedded software development and verification.
  • Experience writing automated tests in test frameworks such as Pytest, Slash, Robot Framework, or similar.
  • Strong experience debugging embedded systems at a module and/or system level, and the ability to triage nightly regression failures.
  • Experience with software testing tools, frameworks, and methodologies (e.g., requirements-driven test development, unit testing, integration testing, system testing, automated testing).
  • Experience validating embedded software features across one or more of the following domains: network communication, IoT and connectivity, multimedia, UI, Android, and low-voltage power distribution.
  • Ethernet (MQTT, GRPC, DDS, etc)
  • Basic Linux understanding

Desired:
  • Proficiency in C/C++, or other relevant embedded software development languages.
  • Experience with automotive diagnostic tools and testing environments.
  • Knowledge of automotive communication protocols (e.g., CAN/CAN-FD, LIN, etc.)
  • Working knowledge of IDLs such as DBC, LDF, ARXML, and work with internal IDLs and frameworks.
  • Familiarity with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and software-in-the-loop (SIL) testing on Linux-based environments.
  • Experience testing Android and/or iOS devices.
  • Experience with automotive standards and regulations such as ISO 26262.
  • Knowledge of sensing and measurement principles, including analog and digital sensors, signal conditioning, and data acquisition techniques.
  • Experience with electrical wiring, circuit building, and troubleshooting, with the ability to read and create basic electrical schematics.
  • Familiarity with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices.
