AI-Driven Test Automation Engineer
- Job ID
- 58110
This position is responsible for the design, development, and implementation of AI-driven solutions to revolutionize connectivity test automation. The role focuses on leveraging Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate the entire testing lifecycle - from requirement analysis and test case generation to automated script synthesis and intelligent defect analysis. The engineer will bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI technologies and automotive connectivity systems, ensuring a highly efficient and intelligent validation process.
- AI-Driven Test Generation: Design and develop AI pipelines to automatically extract test logic from natural language requirements or technical specifications to generate structured test cases and acceptance criteria.
- Automated Script Synthesis: Architect and implement AI Agents capable of generating production-ready automation scripts (e.g., Python/Pytest) for connectivity features, significantly reducing manual scripting effort.
- Intelligent Issue Analysis: Develop and deploy AI Agents integrated with RAG systems to automate complex connectivity log analysis and Root Cause Analysis, enabling intelligent defect categorization and actionable fix suggestions.
- AI Framework Orchestration: Develop and maintain a scalable testing framework using LangChain or similar orchestration tools, integrating AI capabilities seamlessly into existing automation platforms and test management tools .
- Model Optimization & Fine-tuning: Perform fine-tuning (e.g., LoRA) and advanced Prompt Engineering on LLMs to adapt them to specialized automotive domains, ensuring high accuracy and reducing "hallucinations" in technical outputs.
- Tooling & Simulation: Develop and maintain AI-enhanced test tools and utilities, including intelligent simulation agents and virtual test environments, to enhance the testing process for connectivity features and system-level interactions.
- Evaluation & Optimization: Establish and refine comprehensive evaluation frameworks and KPIs (e.g., accuracy, latency,, Agent success rate) for AI products, driving continuous and data-driven optimization of system performance.
- Collaboration & Innovation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify AI application scenarios. Stay at the forefront of AI research to continuously improve testing methodologies and efficiency.
Education Qualification:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Engineering, or a related field.
No. of Years of Experience:
- 5+ years of experience in software testing or development, with at least 3 years of hands-on experience in AI/LLM application development or AI-driven automation.
Technical Skills:
- AI/LLM Expertise: Proficient in LangChain, Dify, or similar LLM application frameworks, strong understanding of RAG architectures, Agentic workflows and Vector Databases.
- Model Engineering: Experience in Fine-tuning LLMs and advanced Prompt Engineering, familiar with model deployment and inference optimization.
- Connectivity Knowledge: Deep understanding of automotive connectivity features and related components (e.g., IVI, ECG, TCU, Cloud, and Mobile App) and communication protocols (CAN, SOA, MQTT, TCP/IP, 4G/5G etc.).
- Programming: Strong programming skills in languages relevant to automation, AI or embedded systems, such as Python, JAVA, C/C++, or similar.
- Automation Frameworks: Proficient with automated testing tools and frameworks (e.g., Pytest, Appium), skilled in developing automation for Android systems (IVI) and mobile applications, covering both UI and system-level interactions
- DevOps: Experience in CI/CD pipelines and integrating AI tools into the software development lifecycle.
Functional Skills:
- Proven ability to translate complex automotive testing requirements into AI-solvable problems.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills applied to complex connectivity system issues and AI model performance.
- Ability to lead technical AI initiatives involving cross-functional teams and external partners.
- Excellent technical documentation and communication skills in English.
Behavioral Skills:
- Proactive, self-motivated, and demonstrates a strong sense of ownership over AI innovation.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for effective collaboration with cross teams.
- Highly adaptable and capable of responding to the fast-paced evolution of AI technology.
