We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. Meet our engineers on the Vehicle OS team! Vehicle OS is a flexible suite of products that help vehicle manufacturers develop, deploy, and update complete vehicle software and AI applications. This is one of the fastest growing projects here at Applied, and we are seeking exceptional talent to drive execution. About the role As a HIL engineer on our onboard software team, you will be responsible for testing our Vehicle OS features to ensure the quality and reliability of the FW features. You will architect, design, and implement firmware validation procedures, equipment, tooling, and automation to efficiently test firmware components and subsystems. You will work closely with development and integration teams to explore and validate the performance capabilities of our hardware and firmware to ensure code quality is high. Your effort to create and equip automated validation infrastructures and coverage reporting will have a direct impact on the reliability, robustness, and value of our products. Your impact will help accelerate the development, quality and reliability of the Vehicle OS platform. At Applied Intuition, you will: Design advanced automated test suites for the Hardware/Processor/Software-in-the-loop (HIL/PIL/SIL) Architect methods of integrating the automated test suites into development processes Create reporting mechanisms for automated testing for firmware and hardware Work alongside the development and integration teams to create automated regression tests Assist in creating test plans and framework Explore and innovate methods of testing the robustness and quality of the zonal firmware Understand and deconstruct complicated software systems and devise strategies to test these systems Create and execute test plans designed to expose weakness or faults in components Report the coverage of the automated tests and the metrics that the code is being evaluated against Cohesively work with developers to optimize the acceleration of component validation with the use of metric driven data We're looking for someone who has: 5+ years of relevant experience in embedded design/validation Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field Proficiency in Python, and C or C++ Expertise testing devices and debugging hardware (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, DMM) Desire to participate in improving code robustness and designing testing infrastructure Nice to have: Experience in electronic and system schematic design capture (Altium Designer) Experience with Docker, Linux Experience designing or interfacing with test setups Knowledge of source control (Git) and continuous in ...
