Job description
HireArt is helping our client find a Test Engineer to support high-assurance system development by analyzing complex requirements, designing comprehensive test strategies, and executing automated tests in modern development environments.
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to work in advanced simulation environments, including Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), and Vehicle-in-the-Loop (VIL) systems.
As a Test Engineer, you'll:
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to work in advanced simulation environments, including Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), and Vehicle-in-the-Loop (VIL) systems.
As a Test Engineer, you'll:
- Analyze and understand the software requirements and specifications to create a comprehensive test plan.
- Develop a detailed test strategy and plan, outlining the scope, approach, resources, and schedule of testing activities.
- Collaborate with systems engineers and internal and external stakeholders to determine test requirements and translate them into Python and Gherkin tests.
- Create test cases and test scripts based on functional and non-functional requirements to ensure comprehensive coverage.
- Execute test cases using automation tools to identify defects and ensure the software behaves as expected. This testing and validation includes Software-in-the-Loop (SILS), Hardware-in-the-Loop (HILS), and Vehicle-in-the-Loop (VILS) systems.
- Document defects found during testing, prioritize them based on severity, and communicate with developers for resolution. Track defects until they are fixed.
- Perform regression testing to ensure new code changes do not adversely affect existing functionalities.
Requirements
- A degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Systems, or a related technical discipline
- 6+ years of experience in developing tests and scripts for use in automated test environments
- Programming experience in Python or a related language
- Proficiency with modern build and CI infrastructure (Bazel, GitHub/GitLab)
- Knowledge of software testing processes, specifically focused around integration and systems tests
- Experience in the following:
- Automotive test development, preferably in the ADAS and/or infotainment domains
- Software testing (unit, functional, closed-box, open-box, integration, acceptance), including regression and qualification test suites
- Developing software and hardware systems for automated test environments like SIL (Software-in-the-Loop) and HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop), including simulation and emulation
- Containerization and orchestration techniques to improve the automation of software development activities
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to work collaboratively with software developers, system engineers, and product owners
Preferred Qualifications:
- Knowledge or experience with interfaces and protocols used in automotive or related embedded systems (CAN, Ethernet, SERDES)
- Experience with the following:
- Vector software and hardware tools (CANoe, CANalyzer)
- Automotive ADAS or information systems, especially those involving sensors like cameras, radars, and sonars
- Simulation environments like Carmaker, CarSim, or similar
- Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) testing or similar
- Embedded software for robotics, automotive, or related industries
- Leading small software testing teams
- Collaborating with systems engineers to document test requirements
- Collaborating on work breakdown, effort estimation, and planning
Benefits:
- PTO and paid holidays!
- Pre-tax commuter benefits
- Employer (HireArt) subsidized healthcare benefits
- Flexible Spending Account for healthcare-related costs
- HireArt covers all costs for short- and long-term disability and life insurance
- 401k package
Commitment: This is a full-time, ongoing contract position staffed via HireArt. This role will be hybrid requiring 3 days per week onsite and is available to candidates local to the Ann Arbor, MI area.
HireArt values diversity and is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. Unfortunately, we are not able to sponsor visas or employ corp-to-corp
