  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field
  • 7+ years of hands-on experience in a verification and validation role for complex, safety-critical systems (e.g., in robotics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, or medical devices)
  • Proven experience in developing sophisticated test environments, including full system integration testbeds and fully automated test cells
  • Proven experience in developing and executing V&V plans for systems with integrated hardware and software
  • Working knowledge of functional safety standards (e.g., IEC 61508, ISO 13849 or ISO 26262)
  • Working knowledge of robotics-specific or autonomy standards such as ISO 13482, UL 3300, ISO 10218, UL4600 or ISO 21448

Nice to have

  • Successfully certified a robotic system to Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) or an autonomous vehicle (AV) to Automotive Safety Integrity Level D (ASIL-D)
  • Experience with C++ in a testing or development capacity
  • Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
