What To Expect
The Chassis Systems Software team is looking for an engineer to own the validation of embedded software for braking and suspension actuators. You will bring up the tests and infrastructure necessary to validate safety-critical embedded software. You will conceptualize, design, and build validation tools that allow for rapid algorithm development, test against real world data, perform regression testing, and simulate physics-based models. You will work with software, integration, and safety engineers to generate a suite of tests necessary to qualify the software and software-hardware interaction behaviors. You will be challenged to innovate test strategies that support releasing regulated safety-critical software to millions of vehicles at scale and high cadence. You will play a vital role in shaping the industry as we continue towards high-velocity automotive software development life cycles.
Come join a team of knowledgeable engineers that strive to build safe and reliable embedded systems. You will solve some of the most ambitious and challenging problems in the safety-critical software testing space that is unparalleled in the rest of the industry.
What You'll Do
Create and develop automated Software in the Loop (SIL) and Hardware in the loop (HIL) validation infrastructure to enable reliable, efficient, thorough, accurate, and repeatable tests
Develop and execute automated regression test suites for safety-critical chassis controls firmware
Continuously analyze and improve regression test suite coverage
Own the validation release process for customer releases, including test strategy scoping, test execution, and sign off
Create and execute board level test plans to expose weaknesses or faults
Understand the fundamental operations of the actuator hardware and software to inform validation strategy
What You'll Bring
Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
Excellent proficiency in Python or C
Experience with Rust is a plus
Scripting skills in other common languages is a plus (Perl, Shell, Bash)
Knowledge of version control (Git) and continuous integration
Excellent verbal and written communication skills to coordinate with the team
Knowledge and experience with automation and build tools is a plus (Jenkins, Docker, SCons, Buck)
Previous experience in the auto or aviation industries, or experience validating highly complex and safety-critical embedded system is a plus
Ability to read and review electronic circuit schematic is a plus
