Sr. Specialist - L1 Network Testing

What you’ll do

• Define and lead validation strategy for vehicle communication networks: CAN / CAN FD, LIN, Automotive Ethernet (DoIP, SOME/IP)
• Establish test coverage models for signal integrity, timing determinism, fault tolerance and degradation behavior to ensure traceability from requirements → signals → test cases → results
• Own validation execution across multiple environments SIL, HIL (hardware-in-the-loop benches) and vehicle integration testing
• Design scalable regression test suites for ECU communication systems
• Ensure consistent behavior across simulated and real-world environments
• Validate multi-ECU communication across distributed vehicle systems across powertrain, BMS, ADAS, chassis, body systems
• Perform deep debugging of network issues such as CAN bus load saturation, message timing drift, signal corruption or loss, gateway routing failures etc.
• Analyze ECU interactions under stress, fault injection, and edge conditions
• Use diagnostic protocols (UDS – ISO 14229) to validate ECU behavior
• Analyze large-scale CAN/Ethernet logs for intermittent failures, cross-ECU timing mismatches, system-level integration issues
• Cookordination integration across Powertrain / Electrification (BMS, inverter, charging), Body & Comfort, ADAS / AD compute platforms, Infotainment & Connectivity, Central Compute / Zonal Controllers
• Validate that system behavior meets system requirement specifications (SRS) under nominal conditions, boundary conditions, fault injection scenarios, high bus load scenarios, low voltage and cold crank conditions
• Ensure feature-level integration synchronization, power mode management, Wake-up/sleep strategy robustness
• Own vehicle-level regression test planning, drive root cause analysis of cross-domain issues and help support integration war-room activities during DV/PV builds
