Test Environment Development & Automation

• Developing and maintaining Python-based test frameworks for Linux embedded software projects.
• Enabling fully automated testing of embedded software in Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) setups.
• Implementing automated execution of test cases, component resets, log collection, bug reporting, and consolidated test reporting.
• Developing automation solutions using Pytest and modern software engineering practices.
• Supporting continuous integration and continuous testing activities.

Software Design & Architecture

• Designing scalable, maintainable, and robust software architectures for test environments and engineering tools.
• Defining and implementing KPI measurements to monitor software quality, reliability, and testing efficiency.
• Creating reusable libraries, APIs, and services to support validation and testing activities across engineering teams.
• Contributing to the evolution of software architecture, coding standards, and development methodologies.

Embedded Systems Validation

• Supporting all software testing activities from requirements management through test specification, implementation, execution, reporting, and defect tracking.
• Analyzing CAN communication traces and system behavior to identify issues and improve product quality.
• Working closely with software, electronics, and system engineering teams to ensure complete validation coverage.

Tooling & Infrastructure

• Working with modern development and testing tools in a Linux environment.
• Utilizing Git, GitHub, Jira, Jenkins, and CI/CD pipelines to support efficient development and validation processes.
• Integrating and utilizing debugging and analysis tools such as Lauterbach and SEGGER interfaces.
• Supporting automation and infrastructure improvements for validation environments.

Documentation & Reporting

• Creating and maintaining technical documentation, including software architecture, test frameworks, operational procedures, and user guides.
• Producing clear, traceable test reports and ensuring transparency of testing results.
• Supporting knowledge sharing and continuous process improvement within the team.
