• Exposure to  diagnostic communications  and subsystem interactions (e.g., basic understanding of how test applications talk to controllers at the end of line).
• Practical experience with  integration testing ,  hardware‑in‑the‑loop  or bench testing, and creating  test cases  that validate software changes against plant requirements.
• Experience contributing to  design discussions  (sequence diagrams, interface updates), and proposing small technical improvements under guidance.
• Familiarity with  risk/defect analysis  techniques (e.g., identifying failure modes, documenting mitigations) and writing  clear, reproducible bug reports .
• Exposure to  manufacturing environments  or collaboration with assembly‑plant personnel to support deployments, triage issues, and gather feedback.
• Working knowledge of  Jira  (or similar) for work tracking and  GitHub  (or similar) for pull requests, code reviews, and CI signals; willingness to deepen expertise.
