As a Senior Engineer in validation & verification you will write the test plans and co-ordinate the delivery of the system design. You will co-ordinate the fleet of machines to ensure they are up to date with the latest parts, software and configurations. You will record defects and evidence containment and root cause against each. Additionally you will be responsible for preparing the system level and module level test specifications in conjunction with developing test methods to demonstrate how the customer requirements will be robustly satisfied and approved to the proposed design through validation and verification activity.
Your Responsibilities:
1. Thrive in a fast agile environment, developing prototype solutions to validate proof of concept ideas
2. Define the test plans to ensure robust V&V activity can be performed.
3. Co-ordinate machine parts, software and setup, ensuring the latest design solutions are being robustly tested.
4. Ensure robust and reliable ECU communication protocols are followed in line with industry best practice (SAE J1939, Ethernet)
5. Be able to read electronic schematic diagrams and their electrical wiring diagram counterpart
6. Ensure design for manufacture is considered, both relating to build of the programming and parameter configuration of selected solution.
