  • Hands‑on experience collecting and analyzing vehicle logs, cloud telemetry, PCAP, CAN data, DTCs, DIDs, and diagnostic information.
  • Understanding of vehicle networks, ECU communication, CAN/Ethernet signal behavior, diagnostics, and software release validation.
  • Experience with test benches, HIL‑style environments, or vehicle simulation environments.
  • Proficiency with Python, SQL, CAN DBC/signal databases, Grafana, InfluxDB, or Prometheus.
• Collaboration & Execution Qualifications
  • Strong collaboration with Software Development, Validation, Diagnostics, Cloud, Automation, and Quality teams.
  • Ability to explain technical findings through data evidence and concise issue summaries.
