Full Job Description
Role Overview We are seeking an experienced Test Architect to own the end-to-end bench validation strategy for a multi-domain automotive V&V engagement covering Functional Safety, Cybersecurity, Regulatory, and Quality. What You Will Do The role is accountable for assessing existing validation environments, designing the lightweight HIL/MIL/SIL/HIL bench strategy, and defining how AI-enabled validation capabilities and continuous smoke testing are integrated into the client's approved toolchain. Why It Might Be a Fit This is an architecture and technical governance role, not a hands-on coding role, and requires the ability to operate strictly within a client-approved framework rather than a supplier-owned tooling stack. Requirements 12+ years in automotive embedded/system validation, with at least 5 years in a test/validation architecture role. Deep expertise across MIL, SIL, PIL, and HIL bench environments (e.g., dSPACE, NI VeriStand, Vector CANoe/CANalyzer or equivalent). Strong working knowledge of ASPICE (SWE.4–SWE.6, SUP.9/SUP.10, VAL.1), ISO 26262 (Part 4, Part 8 11 TCL), ISO/SAE 21434, and UNECE WP.29/R155/R156. Working knowledge of safety artefact derivation — HARA, Functional Safety Concept (FSC), Technical Safety Concept (TSC), ASIL (A–D) classification and decomposition — sufficient to architect test scope and rigor from these inputs. Experience defining CI/CD-integrated continuous/smoke testing frameworks for automotive software releases (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD pipeline architecture). Proficiency with CAN, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet/DoIP, and UDS diagnostics working knowledge of CAPL scripting for network-level test design. Hands-on experience designing distinct roles for requirements/traceability tooling (Jama Connect / DOORS / Polarion), test management and execution reporting (TestRail), and sprint/delivery tracking (Jira). Familiarity with KPI/dashboarding tools (e.g., Power BI) for defining bench utilization, automation coverage, and defect-detection-efficiency metrics frameworks. Strong stakeholder management and technical writing skills — able to produce client-submittable strategy and coverage documentation.
