Responsibilities
- Develop plant models for automotive systems such as sensors, actuators, e-powertrain, vehicle dynamics, braking, and related domains
- Contribute to virtual test platform development across MIL, SIL, and HIL environments
- Support model-based development and simulation activities using tools such as MATLAB/Simulink
- Work on virtual and soft ECU related activities, including co-simulation, virtualization, and system integration
- Apply software verification and validation methods in virtual development environments
- Support troubleshooting and resolution of platform and system-level issues
- Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams on simulation, validation, and integration topics
- Contribute to CI/CD-oriented workflows for virtual platform development and testing
- Support early-stage development through model-driven testing, functional mockups, and proof-of-concept activities
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related engineering field
- 2–4 years of experience developing virtual test platforms in automotive applications
