Develops and executes software verification and validation plans, defining the strategy and scope (including unit tests, integration tests, system tests, and regression tests) for ensuring the developed control software meets all specified functional, performance, and safety requirements, potentially utilizing Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation and supporting system commissioning activities. Knowledge of risk management processes related to software development, system integration, and operational reliability, particularly concerning timing constraints, fault tolerance, resource utilization, and safety integrity in control applications for fluid, electrical, and safety systems.
