Embedded Test Engineer

Location: Mountain View, 94043 CA (Onsite) Duration: Long term Contract

Job Description:

Develop and maintain automated unit test frameworks for HPC-based automotive platforms.

Work closely with software developers to ensure test coverage for critical modules, especially in communication stacks (e.g., Ethernet, TCP/IP, SOME/IP, DDS, etc.).

Analyze and validate behavior of protocol stack implementations in embedded and real-time environments.

Implement test strategies aligned with ASPICE and ISO 26262 quality and safety standards.

Simulate and emulate high-throughput data flows to test performance and reliability under HPC conditions.

Debug failures, perform root-cause analysis, and log defects with clear reproduction steps.

Collaborate with system architects and platform teams to ensure scalability and integration readiness.

Contribute to Continuous Integration / Continuous Testing pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD).

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics, or related field.

3–6 years of hands-on experience as an SDET or similar role in automotive or embedded software development.

Strong programming/scripting skills in C, C++, Python, or Shell.

Solid experience in unit testing frameworks (e.g., Google Test, CppUTest, VectorCAST, etc.).

Experience working with automotive network protocols (e.g., Ethernet, TCP/IP, UDP, SOME/IP, CAN, FlexRay).

Exposure to HPC environments: multicore systems, SoCs, parallel processing, memory profiling.

Familiarity with AUTOSAR (Classic and/or Adaptive) stack and its communication layers.

Proficiency in using debuggers, bus analyzers, trace tools, and network sniffers (e.g., Wireshark, CANoe).
