Job Description
The role involves leading the validation and testing of autonomous vehicle systems through scenario-based testing, simulation campaigns, and fault injection strategies to ensure safety and reliability in complex driving environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and ensure comprehensive validation coverage for autonomous vehicle scenarios, including safety-critical, edge-case, and adversarial situations.
- Design and oversee large-scale simulation campaigns, including scenario selection, variation strategies, and results analysis to inform engineering decisions.
- Develop and execute fault injection and degraded-mode validation strategies to identify and understand failure conditions and autonomous behavior under fault conditions.
- Maintain traceability between system requirements, test scenarios, and validation evidence to ensure coherent and audit-ready validation processes.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to translate system-level requirements and failure modes into testable scenarios and validation plans.
- Serve as a technical expert to identify coverage gaps, ask critical questions, and ensure validation methodology aligns with system and safety standards.
Requirements
- 4 to 6 years in systems engineering, autonomy validation, or a technically-focused TPM role in autonomous vehicles, robotics, or aerospace.
- Deep familiarity with scenario-based testing, coverage-driven validation, or autonomy stack evaluation.
- Strong systems engineering fundamentals including requirements traceability, V V methodology, interface management, and failure mode analysis.
- Ability to engage technically with autonomy, simulation, and hardware engineers, not just coordinate between them.
- Comfortable owning ambiguous technical problems and driving them to structured, defensible conclusions.
