Senior System Test Engineer - Simulation

What you will do

• As a Simulation Test Engineer, you will own system-level simulation testing of our autonomous driving software.
• You will focus on the virtual verification and validation of both perception and autonomous.
• You will also provide support to Torc's development and integration teams and be instrumental in growing the robustness and safety of our self-driving technology.

• Identify, plan, and execute simulation test campaigns for autonomous vehicle V&V efforts.
• Interface with Product, Systems, and Safety teams to develop V&V simulation strategies.
• Maintain and improve Torc's Scenario Library, containing Abstract, Logical, and Concrete scenarios to ensure robust ODD coverage.
• Acknowledge testing gaps and derive requirements for new or improved test tools, simulation environments, and test frameworks.
• Coordinate with internal tools teams and external vendors to evolve Torc's simulation and virtual testing toolchains.
• Perform in-depth analysis and triage of simulation results, including development of dashboards and test reports to communicate results clearly to stakeholders.

What you'll need to succeed

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics Engineering, Systems Engineering, or engineering equivalent with 6+ years of experience OR a Master's Degree with 3+ years of experience.
• Experience with virtual testing and simulation of perception and autonomous vehicle behavior.
• Experience developing scenarios compliant with the ASM OpenScenario standard, especially Abstract and/or Logical Scenarios.
• Experience developing Test Cases and Test Procedures.
• Scripting in.yaml and using Python for data analysis.
• Experience with software and system troubleshooting and problem-solving with specific focus on system-level analysis, fault isolation, and identification.
• Proficiency working in a Linux environment.
• Working knowledge of basic probability and linear algebra.
• Experience effectively reporting progress and test results to stakeholders.
• Familiar with the state-of-the-art approaches of autonomous vehicle validation.

Bonus Points!

• Automotive or similar test and validation experience.
• Experience with developing & validating sensor models, traffic vehicle models, and vehicle dynamics models.
• ROS (Robot Operating System).
• Ability to mentor lower-level engineers.
