We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments. This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions

• Proficiency with HIL systems and experience in validating automotive systems, such as infotainment, ADAS, telematics, sensors, and networking

• Experience coding in Python (preferred) or another coding language for test automation and script development

• Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills with the ability to identify, root cause, and resolve system-level and component-level failures

• Ability to document test procedures, results, and progress clearly and accurately, including issue tracking and test failure analysis

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Engineering or any equivalent major.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with low-power state and sleep current characterization, functional safety and fault injection validation (e.g., ECC memory testing, windowed watchdog testing), and peripheral bring-up/verification (e.g., SPI, I2C, ADC/DAC)

• Experience with automotive network architectures and protocols (e.g., CAN, Ethernet, LIN, Flexray, etc.) and the ability to validate system-level performance

• Hands-on experience with Vector CANoe, dSPACE ControlDesk etc. for automotive system validation and testing

• Experience with prototype system bring-up, debugging, and validation in both lab and vehicle environments

• Familiarity with test automation frameworks, particularly for automotive systems, and experience developing robust automated tests

• An innate curiosity to optimize testing processes and improve efficiency through better scripting, automation, and tools
