Location: Brasil (Betim, MG) | Experience: 3–9 Years | Core Stack: dSPACE (Scalexio), Python/CAPL, Vector Tools, MATLAB/Simulink | Workplace Type: Hybrid
The Opportunity
KPIT Brasil is seeking a high-caliber HIL Validation Engineer (Body Domain) to drive the verification and validation of next-generation automotive Body Electronics. In this role, you will bridge the gap between software and the physical world, utilizing advanced dSPACE HIL systems to simulate complex vehicle environments. You will be responsible for ensuring the reliability of critical systems—such as BCM, HVAC, and Access modules—ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and performance for global OEMs.
Technical Excellence & HIL Validation
* HIL System Orchestration: Lead the validation of Body Domain ECUs using dSPACE HIL platforms (PHS/Scalexio). You will commission HIL rigs, manage wiring harnesses/breakout boxes, and debug complex hardware-software integration issues.
* Test Automation & Scripting: Drive testing efficiency by developing automated test frameworks and sophisticated test scripts using Python or CAPL .
* Plant Modeling & Simulation: Utilize MATLAB/Simulink to understand and support plant modeling, ensuring the HIL environment accurately simulates real-world physical dynamics.
* Test Lifecycle Management: Architect comprehensive HIL test specifications, design rigorous test cases, and deliver detailed technical reports within an Agile/ASPICE-compliant framework.
* Failure Analysis: Act as a technical detective, performing deep-dive root cause analysis on failures within the test environment to ensure rapid resolution and software stability.
Technical Expertise Required (Must Have)
* dSPACE Mastery: Hands-on expertise with dSPACE HIL hardware and software (ControlDesk, AutomationDesk, ConfigurationDesk).
* Communication Protocols: Deep knowledge of CAN/LIN protocols and UDS services/ECU diagnostics.
* Vector Toolchain: Proficiency with CANoe, CANalyzer, or CANape for communication setup and bus analysis.
* Test Automation: Strong coding skills in Python or CAPL for test automation.
* Debugging Excellence: Proven ability to debug both functional ECU software and the HIL test environment.
* Requirement Management: Experience working with industry-standard tools such as DOORS or PREEVision.
* Language: Advanced or Bilingual English level.
The Differentiators (Nice-To-Have)
* Advanced Protocols: Experience with CAN-FD, FlexRay, or Automotive Ethernet.
* Complex Integration: Exposure to multi-ECU HIL setups and integration testing.
* Model Awareness: Deep understanding of ARXML models and HIL simulator models.
* Advanced Debugging: Experience with Trace32 or Wireshark.
Who You Are
* An Investigator: You don't just find bugs; you find their source. You enjoy the challenge of root-cause analysis.
* A Systems Thinker: You understand how a single line of code affects the physical hardware and the entire vehicle network.
* An Agile Collaborator: You thrive in fast-paced, iterative environments and communicate technical complexity with clarity.
The Reward
* Hybrid Flexibility: A balanced work model in Betim, MG, designed for both lab-based precision and remote focus.
* Competitive Compensation: Salary packages that recognize your specialized HIL expertise.
* Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical and dental insurance.
* Vouchers: Competitive VR/VA package and more.
* Career Growth: Clear progression within KPIT’s global automotive engineering network.
* Impact: The opportunity to validate the systems that define the driver experience in the next generation of vehicles.
