About the Company
Join a globally recognized Tier-1 MNC automotive technology leader shaping the future of mobility through innovative solutions across Closure Systems, Interior Systems, Motors & Electronics. With a strong global footprint and partnerships with leading Indian and international automotive OEMs, the organization offers an opportunity to work on advanced automotive electronics and mechatronic systems.
Job Overview
The SW Product Test Expert will be responsible for defining and executing product-level test strategies for Window Regulator and Sunroof ECU systems, including integration with motor and actuator subsystems.
The role involves hands-on testing, diagnostics, motor performance validation, field/warranty issue resolution and collaboration across System, Software, Hardware and Plant/Manufacturing teams.
Key Responsibilities
• Define and execute product-level test strategy for Window Regulator and Sunroof ECU systems, including integration with motor and actuator subsystems.• Investigate, analyze, and resolve field/warranty issues; drive 8D/root-cause analysis and implement Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA)• Work closely with System (SyS), Software (SW), Hardware (HW) and Plant/Manufacturing teams to align test coverage with design intent and production realities.• Experience in performing bench, HiL, and vehicle-level testing covering functional, durability, and diagnostics aspects of window regulator/sunroof modules.• Evaluate and validate motor performance characteristics (torque, current drawn, anti-pinch/obstacle detection, stall behavior) as part of System-level testing.• Support communication protocol testing (conformance) and diagnostics over CAN/LIN, including DTC validation and network-level fault injection.• Support ASPICE (SWE.6/SYS.5) and cybersecurity (ISO 21434) test activities as applicable to the product line.• Prepare test reports, defect logs, and traceability documentation; present findings clearly to cross-functional stakeholders.• Support plant trials, EOL testing, and production issue triage as needed.
Required Skills & Experience
• Strong hands-on experience Testing Window Regulator and/or Sunroof ECU products (mechatronic/automotive closures systems).• Solid understanding of Motors — DC motor behavior, anti-pinch/obstacle detection logic, current sensing, and mechanical-electrical interaction.• Proven track record of resolving warranty/field issues, including root-cause investigation and CAPA closure.• Good working knowledge of automotive communication protocols: CAN, LIN, and related diagnostic standards (UDS, KWP).• Sound understanding of automotive product development processes (ASPICE, ISO 26262/21434 exposure plus).• Demonstrated ability to work closely and effectively across SyS, SW, HW and Plant teams.• Strong problem-solving mindset with a structured debugging and analytical approach.
Education / Experience
• Bachelor’s/master’s degree in electrical, Electronics, Mechatronics, or Automotive Engineering (or equivalent experience).• Minimum 6-10 years of experience in automotive product testing, preferably in closures/body electronics domain.• ISTQB or equivalent certification is a plus.
Competencies
• Excellent at articulating technical observations clearly, both in writing and verbally.• Strong communication skills—comfortable presenting to cross-functional and senior stakeholders.• Team player who collaborates effectively across engineering disciplines and plant locations.• Self-driven, detail-oriented, and comfortable owning issues end-to-end.
