Hardware-in-the-loop Engineer

Job Description

We offer:
We have a strong base in automotive and we are still growing in terms of knowing the demands of the future in advance. Some of the new technologies we developed are either already in the market or still to come. In the area of Functional development a lot of testing activities and improvements has to be done in order to speed up the process. You are going to land in this and contribute effectively towards the goals and milestone of the company in order to define and achieve goals in the future. One of the major and currently not completed is the integration testing where more ECU’s should talk each other and sort out things by itself inside a vehicle. This means that we have zero defect when the vehicle reaches out the market. As such, we believe in automating the testing activities as much as possible in order to achieve all the goals. As an employee and as an expert in a particular domain, you will get a chance to work in various domain and thereby you can contribute as well as learn new domains. With a clear domain knowledge and together with automation, we achieve the goals with lesser efforts.

You need to have:

• Analyze customer requirements, determine hardware-in-the-loop test benches design
• Development, commissioning and maintenance of dSPACE (or equivalent) hardware-in-the-loop test benches
• Integration of new ECU(s) in the HIL simulation environment (Hardware and Software)
• Creation, Integration, Parameterization, Validation and Extension of real-time capable simulation models
• Maintenance and extension of test benches with new ideas for better user interface
• Bus implementations, e.g. for LIN, CAN, CAN-FD, FlexRay and Automotive Ethernet
• Technical support to manual and automated test case implementation
• Test bench failure analysis, documentation and escalation when needed arises
• Good communication skills in German (mandatory) and English, ability to work well in a team

We are interested in:

• Successfully completed studies in engineering, e.g. Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Automotive Electronics, with Bachelor’s or Master's degree

Knowledge in the following areas:

• MATLAB® and Simulink® modelling of physical behavior models, automotive electronics and technology, e.g. E-Drive, Battery management
• Automotive bus systems (CAN, CAN-FD, LIN, FlexRay)
• Design and testing of electronic circuits, measurement technology, real-time systems
• 3 – 5 years of work experience on dSPACE SCALEXiO HIL systems and/or other Hardware-in-the-Loop systems
• Hands on experience on dSPACE software’s like ConfigurationDesk and ControlDesk
• Very systematic approach, attention to detail, and good problem solving skills
• A willingness to learn and the desire to be challenged

Extra Awesome when you have:

• In depth knowledge on dSPACE SCALEXiO HIL systems
• High Voltage Safety and First aid certification or equivalent certification
• Experience in various Vector tools like Canalyzer, Canoe etc
• Know-how on Functional Safety standards and Testing
• Analysis, implementation and development of Test cases
• Working experience with Automated Test environment /Manual Test benches
• Experience on automation tools such as ECU Test, dSPACE AutomationDesk or equivalent
• Programming skills CAPL, Python
• Know-how on FPGA programming
• Experience in working with Global OEMs
• Exposure to E-Drive testing at bench level and vehicle level are added advantage
