• Solve vehicle communication issues, design solutions and raise incidents where necessary

• Be hands-on (incl. disassembling) in vehicles to determine root causes of reported issues

• Be the “first responder” for vehicle issues

• Raise suggestions for improvements to avoid reoccurring issues with the platform

• This position requires the flexibility to work several different shifts as needed - Day Shift (9am-6pm), Night Shift (2pm-11pm), or weekend days (Tues-Sat or Sun-Thurs).

What we need to see:

• Hands-on experience in diagnosing automotive bus systems and working on vehicles (disassembling and assembling parts of the vehicle) and the ability to demonstrate high proficiency in these areas

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Computer-savvy, ideally experience with scripting languages and Linux OS

• Excellence in trouble shooting and problem solving of Automotive Electronics installations

• Experience with state-of-the-art automotive bus analyzing tools (e.g. Vector CANoe/CANalyzer)
