Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Contribute to V&V: Contribute to sensor systems (lidar / camera / radar) verification and validation (V&V) activities, for next generation vehicle platforms and recurring hardware changes.
- Optimize V&V Methodologies: Work with systems engineers, software engineers and sensor hardware engineers to create, standardize and optimize V&V methodologies for scalable sensor systems change deployment.
- Design and Execute Test Plans: Design and execute test plans to verify sensing systems requirements and validate system-level performance.
- Data Analysis & Reporting: Bring up test setup and tools, analyze test data and communicate the results in technical reports and exec updates.
- Develop Test Automation Software: Write reusable sensor data analysis and test automation software (Python and/or C++).
We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
- 6+ years of experience in sensor systems development and/or testing.
- Deep expertise in at least one of the sensor modalities (camera, lidar, and radar), hands-on hardware debugging, and testing. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
- Experience analyzing data using Python or other high level languages (e.g. Matlab, C++).
- Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team and experience working in a collaborative environment.
- Experience with systems engineering V&V and test automation, particularly in production environments.
- Familiarity with Git.
