Job description

What’s this team's overall project:

• Team is supporting embedded automotive validation activities focused on Autosar-based ECU systems, hardware-in-the-loop validation, automation, and system-level integration testing. The work supports production-oriented automotive embedded platforms and validation environments.

What will they be working on:

• Embedded automotive validation automation
• Autosar stack validation and integration
• Validation of ECU/device driver behavior
• CAN/network communication validation
• Working within simulation environments and partial-system hardware setups
• Extending and executing automated validation frameworks
• Integration/system-level testing activities

What does their day to day look like:

• Executing embedded validation test cases
• Performing HiL and simulation-based testing
• Working with Vector or dSpace environments
• CAN/CANoe/CANalyzer-based validation
• Validating ECU interactions and embedded behaviors
• Debugging communication/signaling issues
• Reviewing requirements and validating expected system behavior
• Supporting automation-heavy validation workflows
• Collaborating closely with embedded developers and validation engineers onsite

What types of vehicles will they be working on:

• Vehicle agnostic. Applied Intuition supports automotive simulation and embedded validation platforms rather than traditional OEM end-to-end production vehicle environments. Engineers may work on partial systems, ECUs, simulation environments, and embedded automotive platforms.

Must Have Skills:

• Automotive embedded validation experience
• HiL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) testing experience
• Embedded systems/ECU validation
• Experience with Vector tools (CANoe/CANalyzer) OR dSpace
• Automotive industry background
• Experience working with partial systems/embedded hardware
• Comfortable onsite 5 days/week
• Ability to logically troubleshoot/debug systems

Desired Skills:

• SiL (Software-in-the-Loop) testing
• SWE.6 / SYS.4 exposure
• Embedded C/C++ background
• ECU integration testing
• Embedded software development exposure
• Startup or fast-paced engineering environment experience
