Job description

Role Overview

We are scaling up our ADAS team to successfully integrate L2+ features by EOD. Currently, the Software Test team is looking for a dedicated engineer with specialized ADAS skillsets. As the Software Test Engineer, ADAS, you will be responsible for validating the entire ADAS system from a broad, black-box perspective. Your primary focus will be rigorous bench-level testing to support the Cockpit Domain Controller (CDC) ECU, as well as the Advanced Driver Control Unit (ADCU / ADCU Pro).

Key Responsibilities

• Lead bench-level testing for the Cockpit Domain Controller (CDC), ADCU, and ADCU Pro.
• Validate the complete, integrated ADAS system to support the rollout of L2+ features.
• Approach testing methodology as a "black box," controlling for all variables and verifying concretely rather than making assumptions.
• Maintain rigorous and proper documentation for all system tests and validation results.

Required Skills & Experience

• 2-3+ years of relevant engineering experience (mid-level).
• Experience with end to end validation of ADAS Systems.
• Hands‑on experience with Bench‑level Testing and Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HIL).
• Experience working with and testing L2+ features like Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Centering Control (LCC).
• Strong network knowledge surrounding CAN, CANFD and Automotive Ethernet protocols.
• General experience with Environment Simulation Software (specifically looking for familiarity with IPG Carmaker or dSPACE ASM).
• Proven experience in automating test cases using Python, AutomationDesk or ECUTest.
• Proficiency with requirements management tools like Polarion or Jama.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in Camera, Radars and Ultrasonic Sensor Simulation.
• Familiarity with Perception, Sensor Fusion and Controls Methodologies.
• Familiarity with Road, Traffic and Test Scenario generation for ADAS Domain.
• Knowledge of industry ADAS standards, specifically Functional Safety (ISO 26262) and SOTIF (ISO 21448).
• Proficiency with basic electrical wiring, electronics fundamentals and the ability to debug hardware issues using tools like digital multimeters, oscilloscopes.
• Proficiency in Python Automation.
• Experience using dSPACE SCALEXIO, NI PXI or IPG Xpack Real-time Test Systems.
• Experience with middleware like ROS2 or DDS.
• Experience with Matlab/Simulink.
• Knowledge about CI/CD pipelines is a plus.
