Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient. The Role As a Sr. Validation & Tools Engineer focusing on Embedded Firmware & Software validation you’ll ensure quality across the entire ecosystem of our flagship and next-generation products. This role is responsible for hands-on testing of firmware & software including the automation for these functions, hardware integration, and end-to-end system validation. You will work in close partnership with multiple cross-functional teams and contribute to HIL infrastructure build out, and test automation in a fast-paced early-phase engineering startup environment. What You Will Do
- Define and own writing of comprehensive test strategies, test plans and test cases for the verification and validation scope of firmware & software Release cycles.
- Drive & contribute to the design, setup, and continuous improvement of SIL (Software-in-the-Loop) and HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) environments for robust system-level testing.
- Own and manage the firmware and software release validation, from pre-release verification to post-release validation and metrics tracking, including both manual & automated testing.
- Drive root cause analysis of complex system bugs & issues and follow up on corrective actions across firmware, hardware, and software domains.
- Collaborate deeply with hardware, firmware, system engineering & product teams to ensure testability and quality are built into product requirements and architecture.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience in software quality assurance and embedded systems testing preferably high-complexity, vertically integrated consumer products.
- Deep technical domain expertise in Automotive, Software defined vehicles, MCU/ECU architecture, Power & Fault Management, including Safety & Security functions.
- Experience working with Connectivity, location services & Mobile platforms across wireless technologies such as Cellular, Wifi or Bluetooth.
- Strong understanding and experience working extensively with embedded hardware, bootloader, firmware, debug access utilities using serial interface interfaces such as JTAG, etc.
- Experience working with Test management systems, Requirements management and bug tracking tools for Release execution reporting and traceability of validation scope.
- Automation experience with tools such as Python based Robotframework or Pytest, Selenium, Appium, Espresso would be a plus.
- Strong programming and scripting skills in C/C++ and Python, with experience designing robust automated test pipelines.
- Advanced knowledge of CI/CD automation tools and workflows (Jenkins, GitLab CI, or similar) and use of SIL/HIL environments for validation.
- In-depth familiarity with UDS, XCP, and other embedded communication protocols.
- Expertise in hardware/software communication protocols and physical layers (I2C, SPI, CAN, CAN-FD, USB-PD, etc.).
- Experience working with Automotive sniffer tools such as CANoe, CANalyzer, etc. is a plus.
- Passion for mentoring, developing and building a quality-first culture in a fast-moving startup environment.
