Sr Embedded Test Engineer

Job Description

We are seeking a skilled Sr Embedded Test Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate should have 3-5 years of experience in embedded firmware testing, with a strong focus on test plan development, automation, and hardware-software integration. Key Responsibilities: Test Planning and Execution: Develop and maintain comprehensive test plans and test cases for embedded firmware projects. Execute manual and automated test cases to validate firmware functionality and performance. Work on testing the embedded software on EV charger boards to ensure they function correctly with hardware components (e.g., sensors, microcontrollers). Test and validate communication protocols (e.g., OCPP, Modbus, CAN, Ethernet) used in EV charging systems. Work closely with cross-functional teams, including hardware engineers, software developers, and product managers, to ensure the EV charger product meets both functional and regulatory standards. Set up and maintain test benches for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, functional, and system-level testing. Identify, report, and track bugs, ensuring issues are resolved effectively. Strong experience with embedded systems, including board-level testing, functional testing, and software/hardware integration. Test Environment & Automation: Build and maintain test benches for hardware and firmware testing. Develop and maintain test scripts and automation frameworks using scripting languages like Python or Bash. Set up and manage test environments for embedded systems. Collaboration & Documentation: Collaborate with firmware and hardware development teams to define test requirements and acceptance criteria. Document test procedures, results, and bug reports clearly and concisely. Debugging & Problem Solving: Use debugging tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG debuggers to troubleshoot and validate hardware-software integration. Analyze test results to provide actionable feedback for improvement. Microcontroller Knowledge: Leverage in-depth knowledge of microcontroller basics (uC Basics) to test and validate firmware designs effectively. Required Skills: Basic understanding of C/C++ programming and Embedded C programming. Solid understanding of hardware/electronics fundamentals. Proficiency in test plan and test case development. Experience with test automation tools and frameworks. Knowledge of version control tools (e.g., Git) and defect tracking systems (e.g., Jira). Strong problem-solving and analytical skills. Familiarity with debugging tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG debuggers. Excellent documenting and communication skills. Qualifications: Bachelors/master's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Science, or a related field. 3-5 years of relevant experience in embedded firmware testing or microcontroller development.
