• Own the full lifecycle of physical interface simulation devices, including concept, design, configuration, integration, documentation, and long-term support.
• Develop and maintain low-level simulation environments that accurately mirror embedded controllers and vehicle networks for repeatable testing.
• Model complex vehicle scenarios and use cases and translate them into automated, lower-level simulations for validation and debug.
• Collaborate with embedded controls, validation, and architecture teams to understand requirements and integrate the tool chain into their workflows.
• Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize tool chain performance, including build, deployment, and execution reliability across multiple environments.
• Implement and maintain automated CI/CD and validation pipelines leveraging the Autobot tool chain and simulation infrastructure.
• Ensure robust test coverage and traceability for embedded software changes using the simulation and tool-chain infrastructure.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, standards, and best practices for using the tool chain and simulation devices.
• Provide technical guidance and support to internal users, including onboarding, training, and advanced troubleshooting of the tools and simulations.
• Continuously evaluate and integrate new technologies (hardware and software) to improve simulation of fidelity, performance, and developer productivity.
• Analyze software test metrics to identify trends, potential issues, and areas for improvement in our development processes.
• Ensure high data integrity across various software systems and applications, implementing strategies for data integrity and consistency.
