You will act as the vital supporting link between the Client Team and OEM Team to help design, develop, and successfully launch products. In this role, you will apply hands-on electronics expertise to test, diagnose, and validate automotive embedded systems while delivering high-quality service and representing the company at the customer site.

Responsibilities

Hardware & Electronics Engineering Contributions:

Schematics & Circuitry: Read, interpret, and analyze complex electrical schematics to understand electronics design basics and trace circuits for diagnostic purposes.

Lab Equipment Utilization: Operate standard electronics laboratory equipment, heavily utilizing Oscilloscopes, Multimeters, and Logic Analyzers to capture waveforms, verify signal integrity, and take precise electrical measurements during issue replication.

PCBA Testing & Programming: Utilize JTAG debuggers to interface directly with microcontrollers for testing, debugging, and programming Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBAs) at the bench level.

Embedded System Validation: Execute system validation tasks by developing a clear understanding of system bench setups and translating vehicle test cases against hardware system requirements.

In-Vehicle & Bench Troubleshooting: Troubleshoot hardware and communication issues directly on the customer's test bench and in-vehicle. This includes actively reflashing Automotive Embedded Electronic Control Units (ECUs) with updated software or calibration files as needed.

Root Cause Analysis: Serve as an active participant in technical problem-solving utilizing methodologies like QRQC (Quick Response Quality Control) to identify hardware failures at the component or system level.

Resident Engineering & Project Support:

Release assigned electronics parts into the OEM using their specific ECM process.

Order parts to support build events and ensure the timely closure of all hardware-related ECRs and work orders.

Co-facilitate subsystem/component Product Development Team (PDT) meetings, speaking clearly with facts and data regarding hardware performance.
