Job Summary:
Mytra is innovating in the supply chain industry by applying robotics and distributed software to solve material handling challenges. As a Senior Software Validation Engineer, you will enhance system reliability and develop automated validation processes while collaborating with various engineering teams.
Responsibilities:
• Work directly with multiple engineering teams to proactively identify gaps in system architecture, validation pipelines and test infrastructure.
• Own the full life-cycle from gap identification to deploying automated validation processes that improve reliability across the Mytra system.
• Build and scale automated hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), software-in-the-loop (SIL) and simulation test infrastructure to ensure robust regression detection.
• Perform deep-dive root cause analysis and fix hardware, software, and firmware issues identified throughout the release process.
• Own system validation burn down - tracking issues in the release pipeline, driving them to closure, and enforcing accountability across software, firmware, and hardware domains.
• Manage teams of agents to deploy and maintain internal validation and release web products that enable cooperation, velocity and reliability across the Mytra organization.
Qualifications:
Required:
• 5+ years of relevant industry experience
• You are a proficient software engineer, with a track record of deploying robust validation pipelines for hardware systems.
• Familiarity with systems engineering validation processes, including validation planning, burn down tracking, and ownership of end-to-end system reliability.
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics, Electrical, or Computer Engineering, or equivalent.
• Expert proficiency with Python and Linux-based environments.
• Familiarity with system-level languages (C/C++/Rust) to debug at the firmware level.
• Experience developing firmware validation tests for both HIL and SIL testing.
• Experience with communication standards (CAN, I2C, SPI) and electromechanical systems.
• Proficiency in agent-driven coding practices (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) to increase engineering velocity and validate agent-generated code.
• Professional mastery of Git and software version management.
Preferred:
• Experience building and maintaining fleet-wide release qualification for robotic, automotive or industrial automation systems.
• Strong knowledge of CI/CD principles and workflows for SIL/HIL and experience building these systems from scratch.
• Familiarity with observability for distributed systems, including metrics, logs, traces, data lakes, and alerting.
• Experience with embedded debugging workflows, including JTAG, SWD, core dumps, and trace tools.
• Experience with containerized CI systems and build orchestration, including Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm Charts.
• Hands-on experience with lab automation and hardware test infrastructure, including relay control, power cycling, and instrumentation.
• Exposure to functional safety or reliability practices, including DFMEA and incident postmortems.
