If you're passionate about automotive software development and driven to shape the future of mobility alongside a global team, we look forward to hearing from you.

• Collaborate with system engineers and architects to translate requirements into software test plans.
• Execute V&V (Verification & Validation) activities for complete vehicle functions on both HiL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) and Vehicle.
• Experience with functional testing and verification in one of the domains: Inverter, power electronics, Steering, Braking, Thermal, or Energy management.
• Diagnose and resolve hardware issues, including build failures, test environment disruptions, and infrastructure bottlenecks.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to resolve SWC (Software Component) issues while collecting detailed test logs for effective fault analysis.

• Work with CI/CD pipelines and version control tools (Git, Gerrit, Jenkins, Docker…)
• Design and develop application functionality and algorithms by writing clean, efficient code in C and/or C++, or by modeling and implementing them in Simulink.

Your Profile

You should have obtained a Master’s degree in Mechatronics, Automotive Electronics, or equivalent. You are a strong communicator with great networking skills, you are solution-focused, eager to learn new skills, and driven by self-development.

• 5+ years’ experience from system and functional testing in one of the areas (Inverters, DCDC converters, Steering, Braking, Thermal, or Energy management) within the automotive industry.
• Proven hands-on capability with HIL/SIL/MIL and Vehicle validation in complex test environments.
• Strong command of in-vehicle networks (CAN, LIN, Ethernet) and diagnostics (UDS).
• Expert in Vector toolchain (CANoe, CANalyzer, CAPL) and measurement/calibration tools (INCA).
• Advanced skills in test strategy, test design, and traceability using DOORS/SystemWeaver.
• Proficiency in Python/CAPL for scalable test automation and framework development.
• Experience driving CI/CD integration and automated validation pipelines.
• Experience in supporting model-based software development in a MATLAB/Simulink environment.
• Deep expertise in AUTOSAR (Classic/Adaptive) architecture and system-level integration.
• Solid understanding of ASPICE, ISO 26262, and quality-driven development processes.
• Excellent debugging and root cause analysis skills across embedded HW/SW domains.
• Ability to lead technical problem-solving, mentor teams, and collaborate across functions.
• Driver’s license B (Class E and/or C meritorious).

Meriting:
• T2 or T3 Driving permit.
• dSpace HiL toolchain.
