Job Summary 

We are looking for a highly motivated Telematics Systems Validation Engineer with 

expertise in Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) Testing, Embedded Software Validation, 

Python Test Automation, and Electronic Control Systems. 

The role involves validating telematics software using HIL simulation environments that 

emulate machine and engine behavior under real-world operating and fault conditions. The 

ideal candidate should be able to understand system requirements, design complex 

validation scenarios, execute automated and manual tests, analyze logs, identify software 

defects, and collaborate with global engineering teams. 

Experience with dSPACE HIL systems, embedded controls, CAN/J1939 communication, 

and telematics technologies is highly preferred.

HIL Testing & System Validation 

• Analyze telematics software and system requirements. 

• Develop traceable test scenarios and validation strategies. 

• Execute: 

o Functional Testing 

o Integration Testing 

o System Testing 

o Fault Injection Testing 

o Negative Testing 

o Regression Testing 

• Validate telematics functionality under simulated real-world conditions. 

Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) 

• Configure, operate, and maintain HIL environments. 

• Troubleshoot HIL benches and simulation setups. 

• Support hardware interfaces, wiring harnesses, and plant models. 

• Ensure reliability and repeatability of HIL validation platforms. 

Python Test Automation 

• Develop and maintain automated validation frameworks using Python. 

• Build reusable automated test libraries. 

• Improve test coverage, efficiency, and repeatability. 

• Automate execution and reporting processes. 

Defect Investigation & Root Cause Analysis 

• Analyze logs, network traces, and system behavior. 

• Identify software defects and validation gaps. 

• Differentiate product issues from test environment issues. 

• Reproduce defects and support root-cause investigations. 

• Verify fixes through retesting and regression validation. 

Collaboration & Reporting 

• Communicate test findings, risks, and validation status. 

• Work closely with: 

o Software Teams 

o Systems Engineers 

o Embedded Engineers 

o Global Validation Teams 

• Participate in reviews and project discussions.

We wholeheartedly believe in the diversity of thought that comes with fostering a culture rooted in respect, where everyone belongs, is valued, and feels inspired to share their ideas. We know embracing our unique differences makes us better, and that solving the worlds hardest engineering problems requires diverse ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds. We shine the brightest when we tap into the many dimensions that thrive across over 21,000 difference-makers in our workplace.
