Job Location: Westminster, CO (100% In The Office)

Our Department: Trimble AgIS

Are you interested in identifying and delivering disruptive cutting-edge vehicle system technologies?

As a Software Test Engineer, you will be joining the core team developing positioning solutions to enable advanced motion control systems for off-highway industrial machinery in the agriculture and construction industries, such as tractors, harvesters, dozers, excavators, etc. The work will include developing automated testing tools, scripts, and procedures to evaluate and validate the performance and quality of the products that Trimble develops. You also will support the development teams with in-field data collection required to aid with positioning software and tools development as well as for use in your software testing efforts.

What You Will Do

• Assist the transition of testing from on-vehicle to automated test environments in order to expedite development speed, improve quality, and reduce operating costs

• Develop and execute test plans/procedures at all levels of test: MIL/SIL, HIL and On-vehicle

• Develop data analysis scripts that present result in a clear, concise manner that enables developers to quickly understand your conclusions (issue, performance baseline, etc)

• Collaborate with software and hardware engineering teams to define test requirements and ensure comprehensive test coverage

• Help stand-up a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testbench and create HIL test procedures

• Write model/software-in-the-loop (MIL/SIL) test cases to improve overall test coverage

• Collect vehicle data logs following rigorous test methodologies

• Working with Python, Matlab/Simulink or other scripting languages to get the job done

What Skills & Experience You Should Bring:

• 5 years of experience in test automation and validation

• Understanding of positioning technologies and principles, such as GNSS, IMUs, or related sensor fusion technologies

• Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines

• Bachelor, Masters or higher Engineering degree is required in a related field such as Computer Engineering/Science, Robotics

• Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering

• Proficiency with Python tools as well as scripting languages such as Matlab

• Extensive experience with test, verification, validation and productization of algorithms

• Strong experience with data collection and organization

• Familiarity with data statistics and probability theory

• Works closely with stakeholders and the development team to identify testing and validation requirement and objectives; drives to continuously improve testing workflows and processes

• Effective analytical and problem solving skills

• Effectively interact with a global team with excellent communication and documentation skills

• Have problem-solving and time management skills with motivation and ability to work autonomously

• Ability to read and understand C/C code

• Ability to travel (including international) up to 25% per year

What Skills & Experience You Could Bring:

• 12 years of applicable work experience

• Practical controls experience, in off-highway, automotive, aerospace or related

• HIL and SIL testing, including familiarity with HIL testbench HW/SW (e.g. NI Veristand)

• AutonomoSemi-autonomous vehicle control

• Experience in safety-critical software development and familiarity with certification processes

• Familiarity with testing tools and instrumentation sensors, e.g. potentiometers, hall effect sensors, accelerometers

• Proficiency in effective test suite writing, demonstrating the ability to design comprehensive tests that maximize coverage and efficiency

• Experience with Linux-based operating systems

• Experience with J1939 or NMEA2000 CAN Communication

• Proficiency with C
