We are seeking a dedicated and highly analytical Software Product Engineer to join our team, focusing on our cutting-edge Android Automotive OS application. This critical role involves ensuring the stability, reliability, and performance of a complex hybrid embedded & cloud system. The ideal candidate will be instrumental in identifying, analyzing, and driving the resolution of critical issues, enhancing our quality processes, and contributing to a robust failure mode avoidance strategy. This is a hands-on role that requires deep technical expertise, exceptional problem-solving skills, and a proactive approach to quality improvement.
What you'll do...
- Issue Triage and Root Cause Analysis: Lead the triage of reported issues within the BluAI In-Vehicle application and its associated cloud components. Conduct thorough and systematic root cause analysis for complex software failures, presenting detailed findings and actionable recommendations to development and cloud teams during daily review meetings.
- Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis: Collaborate with the Software Product Engineers (SPEs) to proactively identify potential failure modes for new features through comprehensive Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA). Ensure that identified failure modes are adequately addressed through robust test case development and alignment with overall test strategies.
- Quality Assurance Test Analysis & Improvement: Review and critically analyze QA test reports and results to identify patterns, critical defects, and areas for test process optimization. Partner closely with the QA team to refine test cases, establish clear preconditions, and define precise acceptance criteria to enhance the effectiveness of validation efforts.
- Quality Documentation & Process Enhancement: Maintain and update critical quality documentation, including DFMEA records, issue tracking systems, and quality history. Drive the creation of new test cases based on identified regressions, previously untested failure modes, and evolving product requirements to continuously improve test coverage. Demonstrate traceability from requirement to test case and test failures to DFMEA and associated new requirements.
- Cross-Platform Issue Support: Provide specialized triage and root cause analysis support for issues related to Gemini and Google Assistant on Phoenix, as required.
