System Integration and Validation Engineer

Job summary

Responsibilities

At Applied Intuition, you will sit directly at the intersection of System Integration and Validation. Rather than just running pre-written scripts, you will build and configure Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) environments from scratch.

• Assemble, configure, and initialize dSPACE and Vector HiL test benches, lab cars, and test environments from the ground up for new projects.
• Build and integrate complex vehicle simulation models in MATLAB/Simulink and link them directly with HiL hardware systems.
• Analyze high-level system requirements, bridge functional gaps, and design complete validation strategies—even when documentation is minimal or incomplete.
• Develop robust automation scripts in Python to execute tests across simulated, bench, and prototype vehicle environments.
• Configure vehicle communication networks and assets (ARXML, K-Matrix) across CAN, Automotive Ethernet, FlexRay, and LIN protocols.

What they're looking for

• 2+ years in automotive systems validation, embedded systems, or hardware integration with broad exposure across multiple vehicle domains (e.g., ADAS, Powertrain, Body…
• Mindset & Ownership: Self-starter with a "can-do" attitude, high energy, and the independence to drive projects forward without waiting for perfect requirements or step-by-step…
• Hands-on experience building/configuring dSPACE (ControlDesk/ConfigurationDesk) or Vector hardware and software (CANoe, CANape).
• Proficiency in Python for test automation and MATLAB/Simulink for vehicle model development.
• Practical knowledge of automotive network protocols (CAN, Automotive Ethernet, LIN, FlexRay) and network files (ARXML, K-Matrix).
