Maintain automation, test frameworks, and systems at scale for usage in rapid engineering development.
Develop multi-tiered test suites to ensure the detection of regressions.
Collaborate with hardware design, firmware, and test engineers to implement embedded solution simulations and address testing gaps.
Improve test coverage and reliability by developing new test cases and refining existing ones.
Partner with product management and engineering peers to design verifiable end-to-end test cases through automated testing.
THIS IS WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
8+ years of experience in software testing and automation, specifically in embedded systems.
Strong expertise in Python scripting, Pytest, and OpenHTF.
Proven experience in setting up and executing regression tests in HIL-like environments.
