Description & Requirements

We are expanding our Verification & Validation (V&V) capabilities by rolling out a modern SIL (Software-in-the-Loop) and HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) test environment across multiple automotive product lines (e.g., IVI, Central Compute, TCU, Amplifiers/Boosters). In addition, we are introducing AI-supported automation to accelerate test case generation, test planning, and reporting.
As a Working Student / Intern, you will support the setup, operation, and continuous improvement of our HIL/SIL ecosystem and contribute to AI-driven test automation initiatives—while also helping drive the rollout with strong project management support.

What You Will Do

• Support the rollout and standardization of HIL/SIL environments (processes, templates, documentation)
• Assist in test automation enablement: executing test runs, collecting results, improving repeatability
• Support CI/CD integration (e.g., Jenkins pipelines for automated build/test/reporting)
• Contribute to test reporting (KPIs, dashboards, automated reports; e.g., JUnit-compatible outputs)
• Help improve test management & traceability (test plans, linking tests to requirements, ALM integration support)

AI-enabled test acceleration (core add-on):

• Support automated test case generation using AI, e.g.
  • converting requirements / user stories / interface specs into structured test cases
  • generating test steps, boundary cases, negative tests, and parameter variations
  • proposing coverage improvements (risk-based and regression-focused)
• Assist in building/maintaining prompt templates, guidelines, and quality checks for AI-generated test artifacts
• Help validate AI-generated test cases by running them on SIL/HIL setups and comparing expected vs actual behavior
• Support AI-assisted analysis of test logs and failures (basic clustering, triage support, reporting improvements)

Project management support (added):

• Maintain and update rollout plans, timelines, and action lists (e.g., Jira/Confluence or similar)
• Support preparation and follow-up of workshops, stakeholder meetings, and status reviews
• Track risks, dependencies, and open points across toolchain, infrastructure, and teams
• Create clear status reporting (progress, blockers, next steps) for engineering and management audiences
