Job Description

Embedded Vehicle Control Systems Engineer

Vehicle control systems embedded software gets more complex every year, and we are looking to expand upon our capabilities to ensure the software we release is of the highest quality. We lead validation of safety-critical systems such as braking, steering, and suspension, and we are looking for innovative, driven, systems-focused engineers. You'll have the opportunity to work in a rapidly evolving environment on new features and functions and to help deliver robust software to customers.

• Develop detailed software test specifications and design verification plans for vehicle control systems and features
• Support new development of MiL/SiL/HiL based software validation from in-vehicle validation
• Develop automations within our requirement and DVP&R tools and/or using Python for consistent, robust, release-based testing
• Perform functional validation using Model-in-the-Loop (MiL), Software-in-the-Loop (SiL), and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) environments
• Collaborate closely with multiple HiL teams to execute validation plans and troubleshoot issues
• Analyze results for compliance to requirements
• Investigate and triage software bug reports from the field and other validation teams
• Deep-dive into high priority software bugs and develop action plans for preventing recurrence
• Lead expansion of software test plans for complete coverage to requirements (fault insertion, negative-testing, etc.)

Skills Required:

1. Test Automation – Tools such as ecu.test, or scripting skills such as python coding language
2. Software Testing – Model in the Loop (MiL), Software in the Loop (SiL), or Hardware in the Loop (HiL) test experience
3. Embedded Software – Automotive software development or validation experience (embedded software being software that is part of an electronic hardware module)

2. Test Execution – MiL/SiL/HiL testing, dSPACE tools, etc.
3. Technical Requirements – Detailed embedded software requirements
4. Test Planning – Project management skills and tools such as Jira for time management
5. Requirements Analysis – Experience authoring or reviewing technical engineering requirements

Experience Required:

• Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Computer Science, or related degree, or foreign equivalency degree, or a combination of equivalent experience and education
• 2+ years of experience in software validation, software systems engineering, or embedded controls systems development

Experience Preferred:

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
• Experience developing software requirements and/or software test cases
• Experience developing and executing test plansFamiliarity with tools: Vector CANalyzer / CANape / CANoe , ecu.test, Matlab Simulink
• Familiarity with ISO-26262
• Good communication, project management, and people skills
