Responsibilities

• Own the process of Hardware in the Loop (HIL) development activities, including commissioning the bench, facilitating software delivery schedules, test planning and automation development and execution.
• Work with stakeholders to scope facility, equipment needs for bench build and system integration tests.
• Lead test automation strategy, develop scripts using (MATLAB, Python, CANoe, VeriStand, etc.) to perform and execute automated testing.
• Optimize the systems, tools, processes, and infrastructure to ensure that bench(es) are properly prioritized and built correctly and on schedule, test cases and procedures are properly documented and conducted according to software release schedules.
• Work with integration engineers to design and build test benches to test high voltage and low voltage systems.
• Work with the relevant engineers to meet diagnostic coverage requirements.
• Run testing with native hardware to exercise software to edge case requirements on systems benches, document and report test results, follow through with non-conformances.
• Troubleshoot Systems/ECUs using lab and measurement equipment including power supplies, oscilloscopes, multimeters as well as tools such as Vector CANoe, CANalyzer, CANape and NI Tools etc.
• Coordinate with test engineers and perform system level testing, document non-conformances using TIR process and work closely with Engineering to resolve issues.
• Report on programmatic metrics, risk assessments and corrective actions relating to testing and software development to Leadership.
