Alpha Lead ( Test Lead ) –  CTCT - Chennai

Location: Chennai
Experience:10+ years
Function: Engineering – Software Test & Validation
Team Size: 6-7 Test Engineers

Role Overview

We are looking for a Test Lead with deep experience in testing both embedded systems and front-end applications. This role is ideal for a technical leader who thrives in a dual role—guiding a small team of engineers while remaining hands-on with test strategy, automation, and execution.

You will be responsible for the end-to-end validation of our products, from low-level $C/C++$ software to the user-facing GUIs. This is not a purely managerial role; approximately 50% of your time will be spent on direct technical contribution, including test design, embedded test execution (HIL/SIL), front-end testing, and defect analysis.

Key Responsibilities

Leadership & Team Responsibilities

  • Lead a team of 5–6 embedded test engineers at CTCT.

  • Provide technical mentorship, career guidance, and performance feedback.

  • Align test team activities with cross-functional engineering and product stakeholders.

  • Drive a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.

  • Identify and adopt new technology trends to enhance software testing.

Hands-on Test Engineering Responsibilities

  • Own and execute test plans for embedded software running on different platforms.

  • Define, review, and execute integration, system, and regression test suites.

  • Work with C/C++ based codebases and front-end codebases/workflows, analyzing system behavior, logs, and debugging failures.

  • Set up and maintain SIL (Software-in-the-Loop) and HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) testing environments.

  • Develop automation frameworks where feasible to support repeatable validation.

  • Collaborate with developers, systems engineers, and product managers to ensure end-to-end validation of requirements.

Requirements

Must-Have:

  • 8–10 years of experience in embedded software testing, with hands-on experience in C/C++-based systems.

  • Strong experience with testing on embedded targets, including SIL/HIL environments.

  • At least 2–3 years of experience in a people leadership/mentorship capacity.
     

  • Excellent understanding of embedded debugging, software/system validation, and test automation.

  • Ability to work with multidisciplinary teams (Product, hardware, software).
    Clear communication, strong documentation, and team coordination skills.

  • Familiarity with testing for RTOS, microcontrollers, or safety-critical applications.

  • Knowledge of CAN, UART, SPI, and other embedded communication protocols

  • Experience with test automation tools for front-end applications.

  • Prior experience in domains like construction automation, robotics, automotive, or industrial IoT.

Good to Have:

  • Machine validation experience. 

  • Knowledge of Integrating systems on machines and performing software validation.
