Senior Embedded Systems Test Engineer

About the role

You will bridge the gap between software development and hardware integration by designing robust test suites that push firmware to its limits. This role involves working in a lab environment to troubleshoot complex hardware and software interactions to ensure high-performance technology.

Responsibilities

• Test Strategy & Design: Develop comprehensive test plans, cases, and procedures based on functional requirements and design specifications.
• Automated Testing: Design, build, and maintain automated test frameworks and scripts (robotframework/Python).
• Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL): Configure and operate HIL, SIL, and MIL simulation environments to validate software behavior in real-world scenarios.
• Debugging & Analysis: Utilize oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers (CAN, SPI, I2C) to troubleshoot complex hardware/software interactions.
• Defect Management: Identify, document, and track software defects; collaborate closely with firmware developers to verify fixes and perform regression testing.
• Compliance: Ensure testing processes meet industry-specific standards (e.g., ISO 26262, IEC 62304, or DO-178C) where applicable.
