Wayve is seeking an Embedded Software Test Engineer to validate onboard software systems prior to full-vehicle testing. You will work across embedded compute platforms and operating systems to ensure software reliability and readiness for real-world deployment. This is a high-impact role where your work directly improves software quality and enables faster iteration across multiple teams. You'll help scale testing by building automated tests and enabling developers to validate their work earlier in the development cycle.

Responsibilities

About you: Essential:

Design, develop, and execute automated tests for onboard software subsystems (OS, middleware, sensors, and integration points)
Validate software behavior on embedded hardware platforms within hardware-in-the-loop environments
Collaborate with software engineers to identify test gaps and build coverage for new and existing features
Debug and triage system-level issues across software and hardware boundaries
Enable developer self-service testing by contributing to CI pipelines and reusable test frameworks
Support expansion of test coverage by leveraging existing validation tests and shifting them earlier in the development cycle
Experience testing embedded software systems, ideally on Linux or QNX-based platforms
Strong programming skills in Python, C++, or similar languages for test development and automation
Experience working with embedded hardware platforms and understanding hardware/software interactions
Proven ability to debug and triage complex issues across system layers
Understanding of
