Embedded Controls Test Automation Engineer

Drive Quality at the Core of Intelligent Systems

Behind every reliable control system is a test engineer who refuses to let defects slip through. We're looking for an experienced Embedded Controls Test Automation Engineer to lead software validation efforts, build robust test frameworks, and ensure system performance at every stage of development. If you thrive in a fast-paced, engineering-driven environment and enjoy digging into complex systems, this is your opportunity to make a measurable impact.

Hours and Pay

• Pay: $42.31/hour
• Schedule: Hybrid (4 days onsite per week)
• Employment Type: Full-Time

Benefits

What You'll Do

• Analyze software requirements to develop effective test strategies and ensure full test coverage
• Design, author, and review detailed L2 (ECU-level) test cases using tools such as TestRail
• Execute multiple testing types including smoke, sanity, regression, and stability testing
• Configure and integrate test environments, including test management systems, defect tracking tools, and measurement equipment
• Develop and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks using tools such as Python and CAPL
• Build and support test harnesses, including NI hardware and development benches
• Execute testing for nightly engineering builds and release cycles with detailed logging and monitoring
• Identify, document, and track defects; manage retesting and resolution processes
• Generate detailed reports on test execution, coverage, and performance metrics
• Conduct root cause analysis (RCA) to determine sources of failures across the system, environment, or test design

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in a related field (Master's preferred)
• 5+ years of experience in software testing, including L2 (ECU-level) validation
• 3+ years of experience in test automation framework development and scripting (Python, CAPL)
• 3+ years of software verification experience
• 3+ years of experience building and supporting test benches
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a detail-oriented mindset

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working within Agile development environments
• Familiarity with version control tools such as GitHub
• Strong understanding of embedded systems and controls testing

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a high-impact engineering role where you'll influence product quality, system reliability, and development efficiency. You'll work alongside cross-functional teams, leverage advanced testing tools, and play a key role in delivering robust, production-ready systems.
