Senior Integration Test Engineer

Senior Integration Test Engineers serve as key stakeholders in the R&D process. This role bridges simulation and on-road testing by validating vehicle system behavior in a controlled lab environment. Senior Integration Test Engineers will focus on both static vehicle-level and HIL testing, replaying real-world drive logs, and documenting system responses. This role is unique in which you will lead testing on HIL bench test setups in addition to static vehicle-level simulated driving. 

As a Senior HIL Test Engineer, you will work closely with software, hardware, and systems engineers to architect the HIL infrastructure, pioneer new automation processes, and mentor the team in validating safety-critical systems in a fast-paced R&D environment.

• →Lead the development and execution of comprehensive HIL test plans, focusing on the integration of autonomous software with autonomous system hardware
• →Perform bench-level testing of sensors and compute modules
• →Execute static vehicle-level HIL testing by simulating real-world driving scenarios in a controlled environment
• →Execute structured test plans covering functional, regression, and fault-injection scenarios
• →Measure and analyze software performance (latency, CPU/memory utilization, throughput) on target hardware to ensure the autonomy stack meets necessary requirements
• →Design and implement automated test suites. Integrate HIL test results and automation workflows with cloud computing services (AWS) for scalable data analysis and regression tracking
• →Monitor and debug vehicle communications
• →Partner with Autonomy and Systems Engineering teams to define validation requirements and translate complex edge cases into repeatable HIL test cases.
• →Ensure all anomalies are thoroughly documented. Champion product quality by contributing to acceptance criteria and safety-critical validation metrics

• Proven ability to construct and maintain HIL test environments
• Static vehicle-level or chassis dynamometer test experience
• Deep understanding of CAN networks and vehicle communication protocols
• Proficiency with Ethernet protocols (UDP and TCP) 
• Experience with CAN bus analysis tools (e.g., Intrepid Vehicle Spy, Vector CANoe/CANalyzer)
• Strong command of Linux environments for system configuration, log manipulation, and troubleshooting
• Expertise in Test Case Automation and scripting to reduce manual testing overhead
• Ability to prioritize complex deliverables and pivot testing strategies as autonomy software evolves
• Strong ability to translate low-level hardware bugs into actionable insights for high-level software teams
• Experience integrating test automation with cloud computing services (AWS)

Required
