We're looking for a hands‑on Automated Test & Validation Engineer to help verify next‑generation mission‑critical embedded power systems used in critical global infrastructure. This is a high‑impact role focused on HIL development, closed‑loop testing, and automated validation of complex hardware and firmware.
The Role
- You'll take ownership of Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HIL) test systems and build robust automated test frameworks using NI LabVIEW TestStand.
- Working across Hardware, Software, and Validation teams, you'll ensure systems perform safely, reliably, and exactly as intended.
- This is a build‑it, break‑it, prove‑it environment‑perfect for someone who thrives in deep technical problem‑solving and system‑level validation.
What You'll Do
- Design and own HIL test systems for closed‑loop embedded validation.
- Build and maintain automated test frameworks (NI LabVIEW TestStand).
- Develop, execute, and document test cases, scripts, and reports.
- Deliver unit, integration, and system‑level testing across HW/SW interfaces.
- Debug complex embedded system and integration issues.
- Produce clear compliance and validation outputs for engineering teams.
- Drive automation, simulation, and test efficiency improvements.
- Own test setup architecture, software releases, and bug triage.
What We're Looking For
- Degree in Electronics, Electrical or High Voltage Engineering (or similar).
- Mid level engineering experience of embedded testing experience across hardware + software systems.
- Strong hands‑on NI LabVIEW TestStand experience (essential).
- Proven background in test case design, execution, and reporting.
- Experience testing hardware/software integrated systems at scale.
- Confident troubleshooting of complex embedded faults.
Desirable
- High‑voltage or power electronics experience.
- Exposure to subsea / marine / industrial energy systems.
- Python, C or C++ for test automation.
- Knowledge of industrial communication protocols.
Why This Role?
- Real ownership of a HIL test environment from the ground up.
- Cutting‑edge embedded systems in critical infrastructure.
- High technical autonomy with visible engineering impact.
- Strong focus on automation, innovation, and continuous improvement.
