• Mechanical design of structures for HIL;
• Electrical/electronic design of systems for HIL;
• Model the systems that are controlled by the units under test.
• Toolchain integration: HW and SW tools identified, preparation of the actions necessary for proper functioning and optimal interaction between them (tools) in order to be able to configure them as expected; writing code; configuring tools; requirements analysis;
• Design of mechanical and electrical/electronic parts with assembly plans;
• Defining a Controlled System Model;
• Model development: identification of the characteristics of the systems to be developed and the simulation targets to be achieved; Model systems;
• Model validation: validation of the functionality and behaviour of the model to verify that it correctly replicates the behaviour of the system of which it is the representation. Definition of validation actions, execution of validation procedures, analysis of system parameters, choice of quality targets.

Key Requirements

• At least 5 years of experience in the automotive sector is preferred.
• Scripting/System Configuration: develop scripts to interface HW/SW tools with each other or to identify the correct parameter configurations that make integration possible;
