  • Create and maintain software verification documentation in accordance with established engineering processes.
  • Execute software verification testing and analyze test results to determine compliance with software requirements.
  • Investigate test failures and collaborate with software developers to identify root causes and resolve defects.
  • Develop test software and utilities using languages such as Python, C, and C++.
  • Support testing of embedded software in laboratory environments using target hardware, simulators, emulators, and hardware-in-the-loop test systems.
  • Develop and maintain interfaces between automated test software, embedded targets, laboratory equipment, and simulation environments.
  • Review software requirements for clarity, testability, completeness, and consistency.
  • Maintain bidirectional traceability between software requirements, test cases, test procedures, and test results.
  • Participate in software requirements, architecture, design, code, and test reviews.
  • Apply lessons learned through software development and verification to influence and implement future embedded software architectures and designs.
  • Work with software development teams to improve software testability, modularity, interface design, diagnostic capabilities, and support for automated verification.
  • Support regression testing and continuous improvement of automated verification capabilities.
  • Develop tools for automated test execution, data collection, result analysis, and report generation.
  • Support software verification activities associated with DO-178C and other applicable aerospace and defense development standards.
  • Collaborate with software, systems, hardware, and quality engineering teams in a laboratory environment.
