Software Test Engineer specializing in safety-critical automotive ADAS verification, automation, and quality assurance across SDLC.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Test Engineer with 4.5 years of experience in verification, validation, and quality assurance for safety-critical automotive software systems, including functional, failsafe, and regression testing across the SDLC. I combine strong test case design and execution with defect analysis, root cause investigation, and technical troubleshooting to improve software reliability under multiple operating conditions.
I’ve also built Python-based test automation that transformed a one-day manual ECU test cycle into overnight automated execution, improving testing efficiency and doubling HIL test bench utilization. In Agile, cross-functional environments, I coordinate with stakeholders and led a team of five QA engineers, while producing validation reports and technical documentation—earning recognitions for high-quality delivery.
