Role: Systems Test Engineer Location: India (with collaboration across global teams) Experience: 3–8 Years Domain: Autonomous Vehicles / Mobility / Embedded Systems / Software Testing Job Summary We are seeking a highly analytical and detail-oriented Systems Test Engineer to design, develop, and execute comprehensive test strategies for complex autonomous vehicle systems. The ideal candidate will be responsible for translating high-level engineering requirements into structured test scenarios, identifying system defects, and collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams to improve product quality and reliability. The role demands strong logical reasoning, system-level thinking, and expertise in troubleshooting complex software and hardware interactions. Key Responsibilities Design and develop comprehensive test plans, test cases, and validation strategies for autonomous driving systems and related software components. Translate abstract product and engineering requirements into detailed, parameterized testing scenarios. Execute functional, integration, system, and regression testing activities across multiple environments. Analyze system behavior, identify defects, isolate root causes, and document findings with clarity and precision. Perform black-box testing by evaluating system responses without access to underlying source code. Collaborate with software, systems, simulation, and validation engineers to resolve issues and improve product quality. Drive test coverage optimization while avoiding redundant test scenarios. Create detailed bug reports and provide actionable feedback to engineering teams. Support continuous improvement of testing methodologies, tools, and processes.

Required Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or related technical discipline.
