About

HIL Validation Engineer | Automotive Embedded Systems I am an ISTQB Certified Senior HIL Validation Engineer with 4.5+ years of experience specializing in the end-to-end testing, automation, and verification of complex automotive electronic control units. My core expertise lies within the Body Domain, specifically driving safety and functional excellence for BCM, BDC, Exterior Lighting Modules (ELM), and Smart Key Modules (SMK). I bridge the gap between manual testing and scalable test execution by building robust automation frameworks using Python and C# on high-fidelity HIL environments. 🛠️ Technical Core Competencies HIL Platforms: dSPACE SCALEXIO, PHS (Control Desk, Automation Desk). Network Protocols & Diagnostics: CAN, LIN, UDS Diagnostics, and DTC validation. Test Automation: Advanced scripting in Python (AutoVal framework), CAPL, and C#. Hardware & Vector Tools: CANoe, Vehicle Spy, NeoVI Fire 2, Oscilloscopes. Standards & Processes: ISO 26262 Functional Safety, ASPICE compliance, and Agile (Scrum). 🚀 Key Impact & Achievements Test Automation Scale: Successfully converted 500+ manual test cases into automated Python sequences for Exterior Lighting Subsystems, alongside 150+ C# scripts for Smart Key Module (SMK) validation. FOB & Passive Access Expertise: Validated next-generation Genesis 5th Gen architectures, covering core sub-features like Welcome Light, WalkAwayLock, RollJam, and Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) safety metrics. OTA & Power Management: Engineered rigorous testing protocols to verify critical Over-the-Air (OTA) updates, successfully isolating complex defects like low-power state transition and deep sleep failures. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Decomposed functional requirements into clear Requirement Traceability Matrices (RTM) and generated comprehensive Software Quality Test Reports (SQTR) for global stakeholders.
