• Create and manage measurement setups for testing, troubleshooting, validation, and performance analysis.
• Integrate and configure data loggers, sensors, network interfaces, synchronization systems, and storage solutions.
• Ensure reliable collection and synchronization of vehicle, sensor, ECU, localization, and network data.
• Configure or develop solutions to acquire, monitor, process, record, and export measurement data.
• Maintain in-vehicle computing platforms, operating systems, networking equipment, and supporting infrastructure.
• Commission and calibrate sensors, measurement equipment, and ADAS/AD components.
• Collaborate with engineering and workshop teams to develop new vehicle instrumentation solutions.
• Support installation and commissioning of prototype and development vehicle hardware.
• Maintain accurate records of hardware, software, ECUs, sensors, network topology, measurement channels, and calibration status.
• Develop reusable and standardized measurement configurations across vehicles and test programs.
• Perform preventive and corrective maintenance to ensure vehicle and equipment availability.
• Provide technical guidance and setup documentation for engineers, technicians, and vehicle users.
• Gather, clarify, and document requirements related to software integration, measurement systems, and ADAS/AD functionality.
• Identify interfaces and dependencies across software, hardware, sensors, ECUs, and vehicle networks.
• Support development of integration strategies, system descriptions, test plans, and validation approaches.
• Assist with software-in-the-loop (SIL), integration, regression, and vehicle-level testing activities.
• Prepare vehicles and measurement systems for validation programs and test campaigns.
• Analyze measurement data to evaluate system performance and identify root causes of issues.
• Support defect reproduction, corrective-action verification, and regression testing efforts.
• Document test configurations, results, defects, analysis findings, and supporting evidence.
• Partner with validation teams to ensure integration issues are addressed through formal testing.
• Apply systems engineering principles to support evolving ADAS and autonomous driving programs.
