- Develop HIL (dSPACE) systems and the corresponding modular infrastructure.
HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) & LabCar Testing
- Develop test scripts based on system-level test cases using a test management tool (e.g., AutomationDesk).
- Develop test cases in alignment with System Integration and cross-functional teams, and enhance the quality of both positive and negative test cases.
- Automate test scripts to execute test campaigns overnight and during weekends.
- Integrate plant models by mapping the appropriate I/Os and configuring the HIL system.
- Execute test cases covering electric vehicle functions, diagnostics, network management, telematics, and related features.
- Log and analyze test data using tools such as Vector CANoe.
- Report issues to the System Integration and Vehicle Validation teams.
- Perform FLA (First-Level Analysis) and root cause analysis using test log data.
- Develop visually appealing GUIs for multiple systems and generate test triggers using tools such as ControlDesk.
- Generate and manage test reports, ensuring 100% requirements coverage.
- Drive test campaigns across multiple test platforms, ensure 24/7 HIL operational efficiency, identify and reproduce failures, and automate test cases.
Leadership & Reporting
- Accountable for software validation delivery on LabCar and HIL platforms.
- Lead a team of 2-3 contract employees and drive team productivity.
- Publish daily dashboards and software validation status reports.
Vehicle Function Validation
- Develop and execute validation plans for vehicle functions.
- Verify drive modes, reverse mode, limp-home mode, diagnostics, and warning strategies.
- Validate instrument cluster indications and driver information messages.
- Perform fault injection testing and verify fail-safe responses.
- Execute feature validation under varying environmental and operating conditions.
Diagnostics & Troubleshooting
