review, homologation testing, and validation traceability.

• ✓Validate the fault code management strategy, including DTC setting and clearing conditions, aging and healing, snapshot records.
• ✓Verify UDS diagnostic services for all CAN based modules against development, manufacturing, and service tools, and confirm correct positive and negative response handling.
• ✓Develop and maintain automated regression test scripts (CAPL, Python, or vendor tooling) and support their integration into continuous integration pipelines.
• ✓Document, triage, and track defects to closure, reproduce field and manufacturing issues, and communicate validation status and risk to program stakeholders.
• ✓Support manufacturing, end-of-line (EOL), and test bench tool validation, and handle large ECU extract and serial communication database files (.DBC and .LDF).

• ✓Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or a related field. Master’s degree is preferred.
• ✓5+ years of experience validating vehicle network architectures, ECU communication strategies, and diagnostics integration, with hands-on experience testing automotive communication and diagnostic protocols (CAN, UDS, XCP), associated ISO standards (ISO 14229, ISO 15765, ISO 11898), and End-to-End (E2E) communication protection.
• ✓5+ years of experience validating automotive embedded software for ECU diagnostics, bootloaders, software flashing, FOTA updates, and cybersecurity, including UDS, Secure Boot, Flash Bootloader, and ECU cybersecurity features.
• ✓5+ years of experience using automotive development, diagnostics, and validation tools, such as Vector tools (CANoe, CANalyzer, vTESTstudio), Vehicle Spy, ETAS, Wireshark, and software end-of-line (EOL) test platforms.
• ✓5+ years of experience testing diagnostic services, device control functions, fault management, calibration, and software update solutions for automotive ECUs.
