• Develop documentation and tools to improve testing and issue analysis

Required Qualifications

• 2+ years of relevant engineering/testing experience
• Hands-on experience testing a product within a vehicle
• Experience with ADAS, autonomous driving, vehicle software, or similar vehicle features
• Experience writing and executing test cases
• Strong experience analyzing and triaging test data
