Come join a small, high-energy quality engineering team responsible for testing the various features of the Simulink Real-Time product. Simulink Real-Time lets you create real-time applications from Simulink models and run them on dedicated target computer hardware connected to your physical system. It supports real-time simulation and testing, including rapid control prototyping, DSP and vision system prototyping, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations.

As a member of the Simulink Real-Time team, the Software Engineer in Test will be developing automated test suites and conducting hands-on testing of the supported APIs, I/O drivers and communication protocols such as Real-Time UDP and EtherCAT. You will work closely with other Quality Engineers and developers to improve standards and strategies for efficient automated testing. This position is for someone who enjoys solving challenging problems, designing and documenting new automated tests and processes, and communicating with the team.
