Role & Responsibilities
- Lead the design, development, and maintenance of end-to-end test automation frameworks for complex railway product systems.
- Develop and enhance reusable automation libraries, test runners, execution infrastructure, reporting, and evidence-generation mechanisms.
- Develop C++ test harnesses/simulators for SIL environments, where applicable.
- Develop Python/Pytest automation for non-SIL subsystems, orchestration, log parsing, and test tooling.
- Drive automated integration and regression testing and continuously improve test-suite reliability and reduce flakiness.
- Work closely with Test, Development, Configuration Management, and Lab/Simulation teams to convert product specifications into maintainable automated tests.
- Perform structured debugging across application, OS, protocol, and automation logs to identify root causes.
- Integrate automation with CI/CD environments and ensure reliable execution and artifact generation.
- Ensure test results, logs, reports, and evidence are traceable and audit-ready for safety-critical product environments.




- Provide technical ownership and contribute to continuous improvement of the automation strategy and framework.

Preferred Candidate Profile
- Strong experience in Test Automation Engineering / SDET, preferably in a product engineering environment.
- Proven experience building and owning a test automation framework from scratch, end-to-end.
- Strong programming skills in Python with Pytest OR C++ with simulation experience.
- Mandatory hands-on experience working on Linux systems.
- Solid understanding of system, integration, and regression testing.
- Experience with automation framework architecture, reusable components, test data/configuration management, reporting, and logging.
- Strong debugging and root-cause analysis skills across application, OS, and protocol layers.
- Experience with simulation, SIL/HIL, test harnesses, or device communication is highly desirable.
- Experience with CI/
