Create detailed test plans, test cases, procedures, and regression suites for embedded software requirements.
Perform functional, integration, system, regression, and end-to-end testing of embedded applications.
Validate communication between embedded controllers, vehicle networks, diagnostic applications, APIs, and connected hardware.
Test automotive communication and diagnostic protocols such as CAN, UDS, DoIP, J2534, and OBD-II.
Develop and execute testing in hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), software-in-the-loop (SIL), bench, simulator, or hardware-based test environments.
