Vacancy expired!

We have opportunities from steel and copper, racking and cabling our lab, up through the administration of ElasticSearch providing a persistent repository of test data.

  • Build an end-to-end test automation system, leveraging ReactJS and Go, deployed in the cloud, communicating with an on-prem lab network Project
  • Put entire vehicles worth of electronic control units (ECUs) into racks
  • Connect arbitrary combinations of these ECUs as if they had been physically connected without moving any wires through a software-defined network
  • Use containerization to reliably deploy and execute tests leveraging this "virtual harness"
  • Deploy instances of this environment in multiple continents
Current Technology Direction
  • Event-driven, application with ephemeral execution to dynamically tie together persistent physical harness components into software-defined networks. Data to be collected and shipped time-indexed to an enterprise search engine storing application logs alongside raw data including IP traffic and vehicle-domain multiplex communication content
