- We are looking for an Onsite Validation Engineer to help bring up new autonomous vehicles, ensuring safety and reliability from the ground up. In this role, you will validate critical vehicle systems—including steering, braking, and throttle—by performing thorough static and dynamic checks.
- This position bridges software and hardware. You will develop automated testing scripts for vehicle bring-up, build foolproof tools for system calibration, and validate vehicles post-maintenance. Additionally, you will develop control testing scripts, evaluate vehicle behavior in real-world environments, analyze test data, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to continuously improve system performance.
- Execute Vehicle Bring-Up: Lead the initial bring-up of new vehicles, validating the steering, brake, and throttle systems through comprehensive static and dynamic checks.
- Develop Automation Tools: Write automated testing scripts for vehicle bring-up and build foolproof tools to calibrate brakes and steering, as well as to validate vehicles after routine maintenance.
- Control Software Development: Contribute to the design, development, and maintenance of software for vehicle motion control, focusing on steering and speed control.
- System Modeling: Build mathematical models of vehicle behavior by characterizing steering, braking, throttle, actuator response, and system delays.
- Optimize Performance: Improve controller performance through rigorous testing, tuning, and calibration across different vehicle platforms and operating conditions.
- Data Analysis & Diagnostics: Collect and analyze vehicle test data to diagnose issues, validate controller behavior, and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
- Ensure Safety: Design and maintain safety features within the control system, including fault detection, command validation, timeout monitoring, and safe recovery strategies
