Job description
As a Firmware Validation Engineer, you will validate firmware functionality at the component, subsystem and system level, ensuring features operate reliably within the broader vehicle platform. This includes testing embedded applications, control logic, and feature integrations across hardware interfaces, sensors, and actuators to confirm they meet functional, performance, and safety requirements.

Through close collaboration with firmware developers, systems engineers and cross-functional teams, you will help deliver robust and reliable features to production.
