Key responsibilities Design, develop, and maintain the full robot-stack regression suite: happy-path plus fault-injection and recovery testing across SW modules, HIL, and SW/HW interfaces. Build automated integration tests and logged-data replay/scenario suites that catch performance drift across software and model updates before deployment. Own test case management and traceability; define pass/fail criteria and triage failures with robotics SW, embedded, and HIL owners. Integrate regression into CI so releases are validated at both the SW and full-robot level ahead of fleet rollout. Partner with members of Systems Integration team on HIL coverage and with deployment teams to reproduce and prevent field-reported regressions. Qualifications BS or MS in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field. 1+ years in software test, robotics or embedded validation, or test automation (senior preferred). Strong programming in Python and Rust (or C++); experience building automated test frameworks and CI pipelines. Familiarity with robotics/embedded middleware (ROS/ROS2 or custom control frameworks), fault injection, and logged-data replay. Rigorous about requirements traceability and defect management.
