Electrical/Software Test Engineer- Embedded Systems- US Citizen Required

A major aerospace systems manufacturer is seeking an Electrical/Software Test Engineer to support verification activities for embedded control systems. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on requirement-based testing of embedded C code, Python test automation, and working within a regulated aerospace environment.

You will collaborate with systems, software, and quality engineers to ensure compliance with rigorous aerospace standards and safety expectations.

• Analyze and interpret regulated system and software requirements to create clear, testable verification criteria.

• Develop and execute test protocols for embedded C firmware at the unit, integration, and system levels.

• Perform hands-on embedded software testing, debugging, and documentation of issues.

• Create and maintain Python automation scripts to support repeatable, robust test execution.

• Maintain full traceability from requirements ? test design ? execution ? defect tracking.

• Contribute to verification deliverables used for certification and regulatory compliance.

  Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.

  • Experience working in a regulated industry such as aerospace, defense, or highly controlled manufacturing.

  • Demonstrated ability to review detailed requirements and design requirement-based test procedures.

  • Hands-on experience testing embedded C code.

  • Proficiency with Python for scripting or automation.

    Nice-to-Have Skills

    • Familiarity with aerospace standards such as DO-178, DO-254, or similar.

    • Experience with HIL setups, embedded test equipment, or simulation tools.

    • Experience with defect/requirements management tools (e.g., Jira, DOORS).

    • Understanding of real-time embedded systems or control systems.

      Why This Role is Attractive

      • Work directly on aerospace-grade embedded systems.

      • Contribute to safety-critical product verification.

      • Be part of a highly experienced engineering team.

      • Contract position with potential for long-term extension.

      • Grow your embedded software Python regulated industry expertise simultaneously.
