Job SummarySenior 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.
Essential Responsibilities- 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
Skills and Abilities- 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)
Qualifications and ExperienceRequired- Bachelor's degree in an applicable engineering field
- 5+ years experience testing complex safety-critical systems involving software, firmware, and/or hardware, preferably in an automotive context
- Direct experience with Hardware-in-the-Loop testing and system-level validation
- Valid driver's license and clear driving record
Desirable- Master's degree in an applicable engineering field
- Experience testing ADAS vehicles or autonomous robotic systems
- Cloud Operations: Experience using AWS for data storage, compute, or CI/CD integration
- Coding: Proficiency in Python or C++ for creating test scripts and data analysis tools
Physical Requirements- Standard office working conditions which includes but is not limited to:
- Prolonged sitting
- Prolonged standing
- Prolonged computer use
- Travel required? - Low: 0%-10%
Benefits and Perks- Comprehensive healthcare suite including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability plans. Domestic partners who have been residing together at least one year are also eligible to participate.
- Health Savings and Flexible Spending Healthcare and Dependent Care Accounts available.
- Rich retirement benefits, including an immediately vested employer safe harbor match.
- Generous paid parental leave as well as a phased return to work.
- Flexible vacation policy in addition to paid company holidays.
- Total Wellness Program providing numerous resources for overall wellbeing
