    • Wireshark
  • Support diagnostics, calibration, and software download activities.
Validation & Verification:
  • Execute MIL, SIL, HIL, System Integration Testing (SIT), regression testing, and vehicle validation.
  • Develop and maintain automated test frameworks and regression test suites.
  • Perform fault injection, diagnostics validation, fail-safe verification, and communication network testing.
  • Analyze test results, perform root-cause analysis, and support issue resolution.
Linux / UNIX Development & Support:
  • Develop, build, deploy, and troubleshoot software in Linux and UNIX environments.
  • Create and maintain Shell/Bash scripts for software deployment, testing, diagnostics, and development workflows.
  • Utilize Linux tools for process monitoring, memory analysis, performance tuning, and log analysis.
  • Configure, maintain, and troubleshoot Linux-based embedded systems and development environments.
  • Support cross-compilation, build automation, and software packaging.
  • Debug networking and communication issues using Linux diagnostic and monitoring tools.
Debugging & Troubleshooting:
  • Perform embedded software debugging using Lauterbach TRACE32 and other target debugging tools.
  • Investigate software, communication, integration, and performance issues in HIL and vehicle environments.
Required Skills & Experience:
  • 3+ years of experience in Embedded Software Development, Drive-By-Wire Systems, Autonomous Systems, Vehicle Controls, Off-Highway Equipment, or similar domains.
  • Strong proficiency in C++ software development for embedded real-time systems.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Linux and UNIX operating systems.
  • Experience in software integration, system validation, and troubleshooting of complex embedded systems.
  • Experience with vehicle communication networks and safety-critical applications.
  • Experience with CAN, CAN FD, J1939, UDS, and Automotive Ethernet.
