## About the Role

* Deep understanding of how robotic systems work and ability to leverage this knowledge to plan for verification and validation.
 * 3+ years of experience in one of the platform areas - autonomy sensors, AV compute, motion control, pose/localization, or end-to-end latency.
 * Experience testing in HIL environments or on road testing.
 * Hands on experience in systems engineering.
 * Ability to read code in C++ and write code in Python / MATLAB.
 * Strong communication skills - both verbal and written.

Bonus Points

 * AV or ADAS background.
 * Familiarity with other safety standards such as STPA, ISO-21448

## Description

* Recommend operating constraints for current and future ODDs on different vehicle platforms - for example trajectory constraints for a given virtual driver, or sensor performance envelopes.
 * Define and quantify test coverage for your area, including the realism and relevance of proposed tests across simulation, SIL/HIL, closed course, and on-road.
 * Partner with software teams to define interfaces, performance metrics, failure modes, and validation strategies; validate platform modules against ground truth where applicable.
 * Collaborate with hardware and EE teams and external vendors on component selection, characterization, and integration; review and recommend changes to supplier requirements and test plans.
 * Support V&V by reviewing and suggesting additional tests and implementing test cases in SIL/HIL environments.
 * Analyze and interpret test data from simulation, HIL/SIL, and on-road testing to confirm requirements are met, and perform root cause analysis for complex cross-functional issues found during integration and testing, driving them to resolution.
