What this job asks for AI summary
A mid-to-senior embedded software validation role focused on designing and executing verification plans for automotive embedded platforms. Day-to-day work involves building hardware-in-the-loop test frameworks, maintaining CI pipelines, and troubleshooting integration issues across boot chains, real-time and high-level operating systems, and networking. The role suits engineers with a background in embedded systems testing and Python who are comfortable working across software, hardware, and systems teams.

Why we read it this way (8)
The role sits at the intersection of QA/test engineering and embedded software development. Primary day-to-day work is designing V&V plans, building test frameworks, and executing hardware-in-the-loop qualification tests, which aligns most closely with 15-1253 (Software Quality Assurance Analysts and Testers). However, the role also involves building test tooling and infrastructure from scratch, supporting CI pipelines, and mentoring engineers — activities that shade toward 15-1252 (Software Developers). 15-1253 was chosen as the primary code given the explicit V&V, test plan, and qualification-test framing.
The JD states two overlapping experience thresholds: '4+ years of relevant experience' (tied to a Bachelor's degree) and '5+ years of technical experience' as a standalone requirement. The higher figure (5 years) is used as the overall years minimum since it appears as an independent gate.
The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in a relevant engineering/CS field. The JD offers a Master's + 2 years or a PhD as alternatives, but a Bachelor's remains the minimum formal degree gate.
Automotive lifecycle/V&V experience and embedded test framework experience are required but name no specific tool or standard — they are captured as named skill concepts rather than specific technologies. ASPICE, ISO 26262, and ISO 21434 appear only under 'Nice to have' and are marked preferred accordingly.
Networking protocols (TCP/IP, UDP, VLANs) and embedded interfaces (DOIP/CAN, I2C, UART) are listed under 'Nice to have' and are marked preferred. Because each group represents interchangeable interface options within the same requirement, they are consolidated with alternatives.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Headquarters is Pittsburgh, PA; additional engineering centers in Dearborn, MI and Palo Alto, CA are mentioned but Pittsburgh is the primary location listed.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): hardware-in-the-loop testing, automotive validation and verification.
