Platform Integration Engineer
We are hiring a Senior level Platform Integration Engineer to support the validation of autonomous driving systems, which includes motion control, vehicle dynamics, and full autonomous stack integration.
The role includes performing system-level integration testing across sensors, ECUs, and actuators, validating sensor fusion outputs and downstream control decisions. Engineers will debug issues across software, hardware, and vehicle integration layers while ensuring traceability between requirements through end-end validation. Test Engineers will also conduct scenario-based validation for autonomous systems and correlate results between simulation environments and vehicle-level testing to ensure consistency, accuracy, and real-world performance alignment.
