About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and implement CI/CD build pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins) that support Cloud, Windows, Linux, and HPC environments at scale.
Define and maintain standard build flows for L3/L4 virtual ECUs and FMUs (SIL tool builds, board-level HWIO simulation drivers, FMU generation).
Create reusable CI templates and composite actions that standardize how teams build, test, and package controllers and CoSim assets across multiple GitHub and/or internal repositories.
Establish robust build validation workflows, including unit, integration, and regression checks (e.g., Simulation Behavior Tests) that can run regardless of underlying test framework.
Enable team to build metrics, dashboards, and alerts to ensure visibility into build health, performance, and quality trends.
Design and maintain the execution pipeline for L3/L4 CoSim packages, including orchestration of internal simulation and test execution frameworks (e.g., virtual environment launchers, test schedulers, and results collectors) across on-prem and cloud infrastructure.
Collaborate with Quality & Metrics partners to emit rich metadata for traceability (e.g., package, variant, build ID, test plan, environment, and results).
