The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in HIL test bench setup, plant modeling, test automation, and control system validation., * Set up, configure, and maintain HIL test benches for embedded control system validation.

• Test software releases in a high-fidelity laboratory environment using HIL platforms.
• Simulate sensor inputs and direct actuator outputs using HIL hardware.
• Develop and maintain plant models for hydraulic, transmission, engine, and machine systems.
• Develop and execute automated test scripts using Python and other scripting languages.
• Troubleshoot complex HIL systems involving multiple input/output channels.
• Analyze test results, identify defects, and support root-cause analysis.
• Validate control software by connecting system inputs and outputs within a virtual environment.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to clarify incomplete requirements.
• Develop reusable, configurable, and maintainable test code.

• 3+ years of relevant HIL, embedded testing, or validation experience.
• Hands-on experience with HIL test bench setup and configuration.
• Experience with dSPACE HIL platforms or similar test equipment.
• Knowledge of plant modeling and dynamic system simulation.
• Strong Python scripting and test automation skills.
• Experience with MATLAB and Simulink.
• Familiarity with Vector CANoe, CANape, or similar automotive communication tools.
• Knowledge of electrical wiring, sensor simulation, actuator interfaces, and I/O troubleshooting.
• Understanding of embedded software testing or development.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field., * Experience with National Instruments (NI) test equipment.
• Embedded C scripting or development experience.
• Experience testing hydraulic, transmission, engine, or powertrain control systems.
• Background in automotive, heavy equipment, mining machinery, or off-highway vehicles.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
