Embedded Software Test Engineer CTBC
Job Summary
Your tasks
As a member of the Digital & Data Solutions Embedded Software team (DDS eSW) within ContiTech you own the integration test layer across the hardware/software boundary. Your core question is: does this build actually work on hardware and can you prove it automatically every time a commit lands
Your first mission is the HIL rig itself. You receive the template and BOM from the DDS embedded team assemble it from parts and our PCBs commission it and walk local plant management through sign-off. Once running you own the test suite: every new feature sensor variant and firmware release must pass through the gate you maintain.
Your second mission is sensor-to-cloud integration testing owning the full path from physical transducer to cloud dashboard: write the test fixtures validate data correctness end to end and build the automation that confirms it stays correct over time. This is a breadth role: you work at every layer of the stack bench wiring firmware driver inspection application layer mocking CI pipeline and your value is the integration throughput you create across those layers.
You
- Receive the DDS-supplied BOM and PCBs; assemble wire power on and commission the HIL rig; walk plant management through sign-off; maintain the rig as hardware and firmware evolve
- Write pytest-based automated test cases covering hardware/software integration; maintain and extend the suite across product variants and firmware releases
- Connect physical sensors to the data acquisition chain; write or adapt drivers (C/Python); validate data paths through to the cloud dashboard
- Integrate MODBUS CAN and UART/SPI/I2C protocols at the application boundary
- Own the GitHub Actions release gate the question does this build pass on hardware is yours before every release
- Use bench instrumentation (oscilloscope logic analyser signal generator) to diagnose signal integrity issues at the hardware level
Qualifications :
- HIL build and bench lab setup has assembled electronics from schematics and a BOM; can bring up a test rig from parts and PCBs and walk plant management through sign-off; not just operating an existing rig building one
- Sensor integration has taken a physical sensor from datasheet through wiring driver code and data validation to a live data stream; can debug at the hardware level not only the software level
- Embedded Linux working knowledge sufficient for application-layer integration; can read kernel logs and understand why a service is crashing (BSP ownership not required)
- Firmware integration comfortable reading C code writing or adapting a driver and inspecting a protocol implementation
- Protocol integration at least one of MODBUS CAN UART/SPI/I2C
- Test infrastructure pytest or equivalent; GitHub Actions; CI result reporting; has written automated tests that run in a CI pipeline
- Release readiness has owned a does this build pass on hardware gate for a firmware release
- Desirable: bench instrumentation (oscilloscope logic analyser signal generator); pytest fixture design; AWS IoT Core data path validation; Docker; GitHub Actions at pipeline-author level; CAN stack or automotive sensor integration background
