This role focuses on embedded-in-the-loop automation to assess ADAS software quality from component through sub-system scope. You will design and implement automated test solutions that run against real embedded targets and bench environments (e.g., SIL/HIL, ECU benches), integrated with CI/CD to provide fast, repeatable feedback on every change.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test frameworks (Python and/or C++) to validate ADAS software on ECU/bench targets
• Create and maintain test libraries and utilities that interface with embedded targets and vehicle networks (CAN, XCP, Ethernet/TCP/UDP, diagnostics)
• Implement automation to evaluate functional correctness, robustness, timing/performance, reliability, and regression behavior at component and sub-system levels
• Develop automated workflows for bench/SIL/HIL execution, including test orchestration, stimulus/response control, data capture, and result reporting
• Integrate automated test execution into CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Jenkins, GHA) to enable test frequently with actionable pass/fail criteria and traceability
• Build tooling to support quality assessment across the stack: embedded software services, middleware integration, sensor/feature interfaces, and ECU-to-ECU interactions
• Partner with manual test and integration teams to convert high-value scenarios into stable automated coverage; reduce test cycle time and increase repeatability
• Drive root-cause analysis for failures (logs, traces, network captures) and collaborate with feature teams to resolve defects efficiently
• Contribute to engineering excellence through code reviews, test design reviews, documentation, and continuous improvement of team frameworks and lab infrastructure
• Influence test strategy and coverage planning for mid- to long-term quality goals (including stability, flakiness reduction, and scalability across benches)

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• 3+ years of experience in software development and/or test automation using Python and/or C++
• Experience building automated tests that interact with real systems (embedded targets, hardware benches, or networked devices)
• Experience with HIL/SIL/bench testing and test orchestration (hardware control, flashing/deployment, data collection, test scheduling)
• Experience with automotive communication and measurement protocols/tools: CAN, XCP, UDS, DoIP, TCP/IP, UDP
• Demonstrated ability to debug complex failures using logs, traces, and systematic triage
• Experience with embedded OS (QNX and/or embedded Linux) and embedded software integration concepts
• Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally in an Agile environment

Benefits

• Immediate medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage
• Flexible family care days, paid parental leave, new parent ramp-up programs, subsidized back-up child care and more
• Family building benefits including adoption and surrogacy expense reimbursement, fertility treatments, and more
• Vehicle discount program for employees and family members and management leases
• Tuition assistance
• Established and active employee resource groups
• Paid time off for individual and team community service
• A generous schedule of paid holidays, including the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day
• Paid time off and the option to purchase additional vacation time
