About the Role
At Phillips Connect, our telematics products keep commercial fleets connected, safe, and efficient. As a Firmware Test Engineer, you'll make sure the firmware behind those products is rock-solid before it reaches the road. You'll design and automate tests, track down tough bugs, and help take products from the lab to production. You'll work closely with Firmware, Hardware, QA, and Production teams in Mexico and the U.S. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who enjoys breaking things on purpose, figuring out why they broke, and building automation so it never happens again.
What You'll Be Doing
Plan and run tests. Turn product requirements into test plans and cases, then run functional, integration, regression, and stress tests across our hardware platforms.
Automate. Build and maintain Python test frameworks and integrate them into our CI/CD pipeline (Jenkins).
Hunt down defects. Reproduce, log, and track issues in Jira, analyze logs and signals to find root causes, and verify fixes with the firmware and hardware engineers.
Run the lab. Set up and maintain dev boards, Raspberry Pi, Arduino, GPS, and cellular devices, and use scopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG/SWD debuggers.
Support production. Troubleshoot firmware issues on the manufacturing floor and keep production test procedures up to date.
Make things better. Join design reviews, give feedback on testability,



and suggest ways to improve our test strategy and product quality.
