Software Technologist I – Automation Framework

Job Description

As a Software Technologist I, you will lead software development activities across the software development lifecycle by analyzing requirements, influencing software design, developing scalable automation solutions and delivering high-quality engineering products. You will design, develop and maintain scalable automation frameworks, reusable libraries and engineering tools supporting embedded software verification.

Your Role

• Develop robust object-oriented software solutions using C#, .NET, Python, C++, or similar technologies while following software engineering best practices.
• Integrate automation frameworks, software components and third-party libraries into Azure DevOps (ADO), GitHub, Git, CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows to deliver reliable and maintainable automation solutions.
• Drive Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) by developing reusable Gherkin scenarios, automation components and framework capabilities.
• Develop software for logging, analytics, performance monitoring and engineering productivity dashboards to improve framework reliability and operational insights.
• Support Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) integration, simulators, engineering test infrastructure and framework interoperability.
• Conduct comprehensive code reviews and participate in design reviews to ensure adherence to coding standards, identify potential issues and promote software engineering best practices, maintainability and continuous improvement.
• Lead complex software defect investigations through debugging, log analysis, root cause analysis and performance optimization while collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including software architecture diagrams, API specifications, framework design documentation and user guides to facilitate knowledge sharing and long-term maintainability.
• Evaluate, adopt and promote AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code) and AI/ML techniques for automation, intelligent test generation, anomaly detection and engineering productivity improvements.
• Continuously evaluate emerging software technologies, automation methodologies and engineering best practices to drive innovation and improve engineering productivity.
• Collaborate with Software, Verification, Firmware, Systems Engineering, DevOps and Quality teams to continuously improve automation capability, engineering productivity and software quality.
• Provide technical guidance, mentor engineers and promote software engineering best practices through technical reviews, design discussions, knowledge sharing and continuous technical improvement initiatives.

You're The Right Fit If

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Information Technology or an equivalent discipline.
• 5–8 years of experience in software development, automation framework development, software design, testing and quality assurance or related engineering disciplines.
• Experience with object-oriented software development, automation frameworks, CI/CD, DevOps and Agile software development is preferred.
• Strong Analytical, Problem-Solving, Communication and Cross-functional Collaboration Skills

How We Work Together
