HiL V&V Manager

A Bachelor's degree in engineering or a related field with 6+ years of experience, or a Master's degree with 4+ years of experience.

• Significant experience (typically 6+ years) driving HiL V&V on complex engineering systems, including defining test plans, executing campaigns, and reporting results.
• Working knowledge of ISO 26262 and ISO 21448 (SOTIF), and how they apply to HiL-based verification and validation.
• Experience defining HiL test strategy and overseeing the development of test cases with traceability to functional and safety requirements.
• Understanding of Autonomous Driving technologies, including sensors (LiDAR, radar, cameras), perception, sensor fusion, and vehicle dynamics.
• Working knowledge of ROS/ROS2 (topics, services, actions) system monitoring and diagnostics.
• Knowledge of CAN bus protocols and tools such as Vector CANoe and CANalyzer.
• Proficiency in Python, CAPL and/or C++ and Git, with the ability to guide the development of HiL test scripts and automation frameworks.
• Experience with system-level troubleshooting, fault isolation, and root-cause analysis across integrated hardware and software.
