Software Test Engineer Sr - E3

• Develop Test Strategies & Plans - Create comprehensive verification and validation (V&V) test strategies for sensor-fusion software, including unit, integration, system, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing.
• Design & Execute Test Cases - Write detailed test cases and test scripts (manual and automated) that exercise algorithm functionality, edge-case scenarios, and real-world sensor data streams.
• Build Test Infrastructure - Implement and maintain automated test frameworks, test harnesses, and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI) to run regression suites on target hardware and simulators.
• Perform Data Collection & Analysis - Capture sensor data, ground-truth measurements, and algorithm outputs; analyze results using statistical methods to quantify accuracy, latency, and reliability.
• Coordinate Cross-Disciplinary Reviews - Work closely with algorithm, software, and hardware engineers to identify defects, trace requirements to test artifacts, and drive issue resolution.
• Document Findings - Produce clear, standards-compliant test reports, defect logs, and traceability matrices that support certification and program milestones.
• Support Continuous Improvement - Contribute to process improvements, test-procedure standardization, and tooling enhancements across the Sensor Fusion group.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Experience with embedded test rigs, real-time operating systems, and timing analysis tools.
• Ability to execute tests on representative flight-hardware platforms (e.g., ARM, FPGA).
• Proficiency with test-management tools (e.g., Jira, IBM DOORS) and maintaining traceability to system requirements.
• Strong written and oral communication skills; ability to present test outcomes to multidisciplinary teams and senior leadership.
• Proficiency in Python, C++, C# or MATLAB for test script development.
• Experience with test-automation frameworks (e.g., pytest, Robot Framework, Google Test).
• Use of Simulink/MATLAB for model-in-the-loop (MIL) and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing., * Prior experience testing sensor-fusion software in aerospace or defense.
• Knowledge of LIDAR, RADAR, EO/IR cameras
• Experience testing sensor-tasking, prioritization, and information-value metrics.
• Experience testing data-association techniques (nearest-neighbor, JPDA, MHT) and verifying track continuity under challenging scenarios.

• Impactful Work - Directly influence the reliability and safety of mission-critical sensor-fusion systems for next-generation aircraft.
• Cutting-Edge Technology - Work with state-of-the-art sensors, high-performance computing platforms, and advanced simulation environments.
• Collaborative Culture - Join a multidisciplinary team of engineers, scientists, and program managers committed to innovation.
• Career Growth - Access to Lockheed Martin’s extensive training resources, mentorship programs, and clear advancement paths., Full-Time Salary Range: $98100.00 - $182100.00
