Developing test scenarios, test applications and generating test procedures to properly and rigorously test the component/system requirements and functionalities. Performing software integration and troubleshooting of multiple applications involved in the projects under test. Executing tests to validate the requirements and functionalities per the project specifications as detailed in the test plan and as per procedures. Identifying, analyzing, and documenting any defects discovered during testing using the tools defined by the company. Working with the development teams to troubleshoot and resolve issues (root cause driven troubleshooting). Operating Sw-in-the-Loop (SIL) system for regression testing as required. Creating and executing automatic regression tests/scripts, analyzing test results and driving issues to resolution. Performing regression testing as needed for current product updates and generating test reports to document all test results. Make recommendations to peers and direct manager based on sound engineering principles, practices and judgment pertaining to specific engineering problems as a contribution to the overall engineering and manufacturing objectives. Proficient troubleshooting and analytical problem solving. Bugs review and troubleshooting (ability to review logs, re-build applications). Prepare reports consistent with program requirements, IVG development processes and recommends processes unique to expertise. Work cohesively as a member of the SW Validation team, collaborating as needed with other members of the team with the end goal of maximizing quality, efficiency and delivering on schedule. Participating Problem Review Board with internal team members as well as with external suppliers. Integrate and ensure the validation of components, products and systems under development. Travel, as necessary, to supplier facilities, test facilities, and customer field sites to resolve problems, explore design alternatives and provide information.
