Job description

Looking for someone with 2-5 years of experience. A strong relocation package is provided.

Key Responsibilities:

1. HIL Test Environment Setup: Design and implement HIL test benches, including plant models, signal conditioning, and necessary hardware interfaces to accurately simulate real-world conditions.
2. Test Case Development: Create comprehensive test cases based on system requirements, covering normal operation, edge cases, fault injection, and stress scenarios.
3. Software Integration and Validation: Integrate embedded software with the HIL system, execute test cases, and analyze test results to identify defects and ensure proper functionality. Develop and maintain accurate simulation models in tools like MATLAB/Simulink to represent system components and interactions within the HIL environment.
4. Data Analysis and Reporting: Analyze test data, generate detailed reports highlighting issues, and provide recommendations for software improvements.
5. Automation and Scripting: Develop automated test scripts to streamline the testing process and improve efficiency. Work closely with hardware engineers, software developers, and system architects to understand system requirements and address technical challenges.

Required Skills:

1. Must be a Canadian Citizen or permanent resident.
2. Embedded Systems Programming: Proficiency in C/C++ programming for embedded systems, with knowledge of real-time operating systems (RTOS).
3. HIL Testing Tools: Expertise in using HIL simulation platforms like dSPACE, NI VeriStand, or ETAS, including model development and test case creation.
4. Simulation Tools: Strong understanding of MATLAB/Simulink for plant model development and test case design.
5. Automotive Communication Protocols: Familiarity with CAN, LIN, Ethernet, and other automotive communication protocols.
6. System Level Understanding: Ability to comprehend complex system architecture and how different components interact.
7. Testing Methodologies: Knowledge of software testing best practices, including white-box, black-box, and fault injection techniques.

Desired Qualifications:

1. 2-5 years of embedded software development experience.
2. Knowledge of hardware design principles and ability to read electrical schematics.
3. Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python) for test automation.
4. Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.
