ABOUT THE ROLE
Applied Intuition is seeking an experienced HIL Systems Integration Engineer to design, build, and bring up hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) benches that replicate our vehicle platform's E/E architecture. You will lead system-level integration of ECUs, harnessing, instrumentation, and test automation across our HIL bench fleet, ensuring program milestones and quality standards are met.
AT APPLIED INTUITION, YOU WILL:
• Lead system-level integration and bring-up of HIL benches replicating vehicle E/E behavior.
• Design and assemble bench hardware - wire harnesses, breakout boxes, load simulation, power distribution, and instrumentation - for ease of assembly, serviceability, and robust operation
• Develop tooling and automation in Python for ECU flashing, test orchestration, and bench health monitoring integrated into CI pipelines
• Debug internal hardware and software issues using oscilloscopes, and bus analysis tools across CAN, CAN-FD, LIN, and Automotive Ethernet
• Conduct network compatibility and protocol compliance reviews to validate interoperability of sensors, ECUs, and actuation subsystems on the bench
• Define acceptance criteria, execute bench- and vehicle-level validation, and drive root cause analysis to closure
• Maintain platform documentation including bench schematics, integration procedures, failure mode analyses, and action reports
• Interface cross-functionally with software, hardware, and program teams to drive delivery, tracking integration tasks and defects in JIRA
WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS:
• BS or MS degree in Electrical, Computer, Systems Engineering, or equivalent program
• 2-3+ years of experience in vehicle E/E systems integration, HIL bench development, or vehicle-level validation
NICE TO HAVE:
• Experience with commercial HIL and real-time simulation platforms (e.g., dSPACE, NI, Vector,
Speedgoat)
• Experience creating harness and subsystem schematics using Siemens Capital or similar ECAD tools
• Model-based development experience with MATLAB/Simulink
• Experience supporting factory or vehicle launch bring-up under tight timelines
• Excellent written & oral communication skills - ability to present to wider audiences
