Additional Skills & Qualifications * Experience with embedded software test or development. * Familiarity with Simulink toolsets. Work Environment The work environment is agile, fostering collaboration and innovation. You will have the opportunity to work with new technology in an exciting team, focusing on software development and testing. The role offers a long-term opportunity to grow and develop your skills in a supportive and dynamic setting. ## Description Simulink Scripting Actuators Visionary Innovation Embedded C Simulations Test Automation Computer Science Agile Methodology Embedded Software CANape (Software) Virtual Environment Software Engineering Software Development Artificial Intelligence Hydraulic Transmissions C (Programming Language) Engineering Design Process Software Quality (SQA/SQC) Python (Programming Language) Hardware-In-The-Loop Simulation, We are seeking a talented HIL Engineer to join our innovative team. The role involves working on Transmissions, Energy & Transportation, and Large Mining Trucks. You will be part of a team committed to software quality, ensuring all software releases are rigorously tested in a high-fidelity lab environment. This involves using a dSPACE test platform where all sensor inputs to the electronic system are simulated by dSPACE test hardware, and all actuator outputs are directed to the physical loads present on the machine. The dynamic simulations of machine hydraulic, transmission, engine systems, and operator inputs provide a complete virtual environment to test our control systems., * Develop and execute automated test scripts in C or Python. * Ensure software quality through comprehensive testing in a dSPACE test environment. * Simulate sensor inputs and direct actuator outputs using dSPACE test hardware. * Engage in dynamic simulations for machine hydraulic, transmission, and engine systems. * Troubleshoot complex testing systems with hundreds of I/O channels. * Collaborate with customers to clarify and complete requirements. * Write configurable and sustainable code for long-term solutions., Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): We may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support parts of our hiring process, including sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates. AI helps assess applications and qualifications, but final decisions are made by our hiring team. By applying, you acknowledge and agree that your application may be reviewed using AI tools.
