Regular QA Automation (Python, Cucumber, PyTest - must)

Project Description:

The Virtual Development Platform (VDP) is an advanced development in testing and validation domain. VDP is as an evolving system, ultimately providing users of this system single point access to orchestration of development environment. 

VDP evolves from VDP Proof of Concept (POC) study to VDP Now desktop and network solutions and then to Cloud-based, distributed VDP Enterprise suite.

Users of VDP will have the ability to remotely access test kits as well as communicate with new and existing tools in the customer's Software Development Ecosystem right from their web browser.

VDP Enterprise will provide users the ability to remotely access real vehicle hardware as well as cloud-based ECU simulations, efficiently automate engineering tasks, and aggregate, review and export critical vehicle data.

VDP platform development is complex engineering program, which consist of several concurrent project streams.

Our team:

Project includes 3 offshore teams + 1 onsite team: all together must achieve synergy to create stable high quality product.

Technologies used:

Program includes variety of technologies starting from HW design up to cloud architecture.

Developers which join the team will face necessity to interact with different technological stacks: MEAN, C/C++ Enbedded, Cyber Security in Automotive, IoT, HW Desing, UI/UX
