Hardware Engineer – HIL Test Objects
About the Company
Avaron AB is a growing consultancy that matches your expertise with the market's most interesting assignments, offering a platform where your professional development is central.
About the Assignment
You will join a connected and infotainment-focused engineering environment where physical and virtual test setups enable large-scale verification. In this role, you’ll work hands-on with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test objects—building, operating, maintaining, and continuously improving the hardware used by developers and testers. You’ll act as an important link between hardware, software, and system design to ensure test objects remain stable, up to date, and representative of real vehicle behavior.
Job DescriptionBuild, configure, and commission HIL test objects based on electrical and system design
Own day-to-day operation of HIL rigs to ensure high availability and stable performance
Perform hardware bring-up, validation, and troubleshooting during ramp-up and changes
Investigate and fault-trace hardware issues in HIL environments together with software and system engineers
Analyze failures and identify root causes in hardware, wiring, configuration, or design, and implement corrective actions
Ensure test objects run correct and up-to-date software, firmware, and configurations
Support software deployment, updates, and rollback in HIL environments
Collaborate with developers and testers to verify correct HW/SW interaction
Provide feedback to improve design, robustness, serviceability, and scalability of HIL setups
Support users of HIL environments by diagnosing issues and advising on correct usage
Document hardware designs, configurations, known issues, and best practices
RequirementsHands-on experience working with hardware systems, preferably in test, validation, or embedded environments
Strong skills in fault tracing, debugging, and root-cause analysis of hardware issues
Experience working with electrical systems, wiring, connectors, ECUs, or test equipment
Ability to work independently and take ownership of hardware from build to operation
Fluent English
