    • Review and refine firmware requirements in the interest of testability
    • Manage the transition between component-level V&V and vehicle-level V&V
Qualifications
    • Experience leading the testing and release management of high-assurance software
    • Experience with testing and integration of systems comprised of multiple interconnected embedded platforms
    • Experience with project, task, and performance management of a team of test engineers

    • Experience tackling complex configuration management challenges
    • Experience with software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop testing strategies
    • Python proficiency, including experience with one or more Python-based test frameworks
Bonus Qualifications
    • Automotive-centric software frameworks (e.g. AUTOSAR), development/process standards (e.g. MISRA, ASPICE) and physical interfaces/protocols (Automotive Ethernet, CAN bus, UDS/DoIP/DoCAN)
    • Validation of bootloaders, secure boot, secure firmware update (e.g. OTA)
    • Validation of embedded real-time and POSIX operating systems and applications built upon them
