  • Mentor and provide technical guidance to validation engineers, reviewing test plans, debug approaches, and automation frameworks
  • Serve as the primary technical escalation point for complex system-level failures, driving root cause analysis and cross-functional resolution
  • Design, build, and maintain complex automotive system-level test benches to validate automotive systems with a focus on automation
  • Develop comprehensive verification and validation plans for automotive software systems and features
  • Design and execute test cases and test scripts to verify system functionality, performance, and safety
  • Develop and implement automation scripts and tools to enhance testing efficiency and accuracy
