Responsibilities
- Set the verification and validation approach for safety-critical embedded software from kickoff through qualification.
- Turn system, software, and safety requirements into practical tests with objective pass-or-fail criteria.
- Maintain traceability between requirements, tests, results, and anomalies.
- Build and maintain automated test frameworks for embedded software, including software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop environments.
- Test failure behavior using fault injection, timing and jitter tests, communications failures, memory, power and clock faults, negative tests, boundary tests, and stress tests.
- Use static analysis, dynamic analysis, and coverage results to identify gaps and help close them.
- Prepare and maintain test evidence, including plans, procedures, results, V&V matrices, compliance matrices, anomaly records, tool qualification records, and safety-case contributions.
- Work with software, systems, and safety engineers to review designs for testability, improve requirements, and support technical reviews and assessments.
- Provide technical guidance through reviews, pairing, and mentoring, and help establish practices and infrastructure for a growing software test capability.
