Vehicle Test Engineer

What’s this team's overall project:

Team is supporting embedded automotive validation activities focused on Autosar-based ECU systems, hardware-in-the-loop validation, automation, and system-level integration testing. The work supports production-oriented automotive embedded platforms and validation environments.

What will they be working on:

ECU/system-level validation

Hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) testing

Embedded automotive validation automation

Autosar stack validation and integration

Validation of ECU/device driver behavior

CAN/network communication validation

Test automation scripting

Working within simulation environments and partial-system hardware setups

Extending and executing automated validation frameworks

Integration/system-level testing activities

What does their day to day look like:

Executing embedded validation test cases

Performing HiL and simulation-based testing

Writing/modifying Python automation scripts

Working with Vector or dSpace environments

CAN/CANoe/CANalyzer-based validation

Validating ECU interactions and embedded behaviors

Debugging communication/signaling issues

Reviewing requirements and validating expected system behavior

Supporting automation-heavy validation workflows

Collaborating closely with embedded developers and validation engineers onsite

What types of vehicles will they be working on:

Vehicle agnostic. Applied Intuition supports automotive simulation and embedded validation platforms rather than traditional OEM end-to-end production vehicle environments. Engineers may work on partial systems, ECUs, simulation environments, and embedded automotive platforms.
