Full Job Description
Role summary

Owns full robot-stack test case management and regression testing for V6 software and firmware. Partners with members of Systems Integration team to build and maintain automated regression across SW modules, HIL, and SW/HW interfaces, closing the regression-testing deficit that today lets deployment-time defects slip through and protecting the expedited V6 validation timeline.
Key responsibilities
  • Design, develop, and maintain the full robot-stack regression suite: happy-path plus fault-injection and recovery testing across SW modules, HIL, and SW/HW interfaces.
  • Build automated integration tests and logged-data replay/scenario suites that catch performance drift across software and model updates before deployment.
  • Own test case management and traceability; define pass/fail criteria and triage failures with robotics SW, embedded, and HIL owners.
  • Integrate regression into CI so releases are validated at both the SW and full-robot level ahead of fleet rollout.
  • Partner with members of Systems Integration team on HIL coverage and with deployment teams to reproduce and prevent field-reported regressions.
Qualifications
  • BS or MS in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years in software test, robotics or embedded validation, or test automation (senior preferred).
  • Strong programming in Python and Rust (or C++); experience building automated test frameworks and CI pipelines.
  • Familiarity with robotics/embedded middleware (ROS/ROS2 or custom control frameworks), fault injection, and logged-data replay.
  • Rigorous about requirements traceability and defect management.
