Key Responsibilities

Embedded System Testing

Develop, execute, and maintain manual test cases for embedded firmware and control software.
Perform black-box and gray-box testing for motor control applications.
Validate firmware on MCU/DSP-based embedded targets.
Analyze requirements and prepare test strategies, test scenarios, and coverage metrics.
Execute functional, integration, system, and regression testing activities.

Motor Control Validation

Validate motor control algorithms for:
BLDC Motors
PMSM Motors
Induction Motors
Field-Oriented Control (FOC)
Speed, Torque, and Position Control Loops
Verify system behavior under varying operating conditions, including:
Load changes
Temperature variations
Voltage fluctuations
Environmental stress conditions
Validate start-up, shutdown, fault handling, and safety mechanisms.
Analyze motor performance, efficiency, and dynamic response.

HIL & Bench Testing

Conduct validation using:
Oscilloscopes
Logic Analyzers
Power Analyzers
Motor Dynamometers (Dyno)
Test Benches
Support Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), and Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) testing.
Perform hardware-software integration and system-level validation.
Analyze waveforms, signals, and control responses during testing.

Defect Management & Debugging

Identify, log, and track defects using tools such as JIRA/ALM.
Perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA) in collaboration with development teams.
Debug firmware and system-level issues using logs, waveform analysis, and diagnostic tools.
Support issue resolution and validation closure activities.

Compliance & Quality Assurance

Ensure compliance with applicable standards such as:
ISO Standards
IEC Standards
Automotive SPICE (ASPICE)
Functional Safety standards (preferred)
Maintain Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM), test reports, and validation documentation.
Support internal audits, customer reviews, and quality assessments.
