The Autopilot Simulation team's goal is to recreate the real world to provide a comprehensive playground for Autopilot. The team builds a robust and accurate simulation with physics, photorealistic rendering, and intelligent actors to allow thorough testing and accelerated development.

• Develop methodologies and tools to ensure high reliability of the simulator.
• Perform functional, stress, integration, and performance tests on multiple levels within the system including vehicle software simulation, hardware-in-the-loop automation.
• Develop tooling/automation to improve the effieciency of validating the simulator.
• Identify effective test strategies for new/existing features and craft test plans accordingly
• Analyze issues detected during our tests or reported by others and work closely with simulation/autopilot developers to fix issues and validate software changes
• Find software bugs through manual testing, automated scripting, and report investigation.

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Physics, Computer Engineering,Electrical Engineering or proof of exceptional skills in related fields, withpractical software engineering experience.
• 2 years Software Testing Experience.
• 2 years of Automated scripting experience.
• Experience with Continuous Integration (Team City / Jenkins)
• Strong Python Skills.
