Quality Specialist - Passenger Interaction

About the role

Join our Passenger Interaction team as a (Senior) Quality Specialist, ensuring the quality and reliability of the Human Machine Interface (HMI) that riders interact with during their autonomous vehicle journeys. You'll work on the in-vehicle passenger experience — from welcome screens and check-in flows to safety checks, navigation displays, and emergency communication systems.

What you'll do

• Champion quality across HMI features including check-in flows, safety checks, map views, buckling verification, and SOS functionality.
• Develop and execute tests across multiple environments (SiL, HiL, ViL) and vehicle platforms.
• Drive shift-left practices — be involved early in epic planning and feature definition, not just at the testing phase.
• Own the quality definition for HMI — establish what "quality" means for passenger-facing Android applications with a strong UX focus.
• Validate user experience — ensure the HMI is intuitive, responsive, and accessible for all passengers.
• Build test automation and integrate it into CI/CD pipelines for faster feedback loops.
• Perform defect analysis and root-cause investigation, especially for UX issues and edge cases.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with developers, system engineers, designers, and product managers.

What you'll need

• Extensive experience in quality assurance/testing with embedded systems and mobile applications (Flutter framework for Android Automotive).
• Proven experience with distributed systems spanning embedded devices and backend services, preferably with AWS.
• Experience with Flutter and/or Android development/testing tools and frameworks.
• Understanding of UX principles and ability to identify usability issues.
• Experience with test automation frameworks, testing methodologies, and CI/CD integration.
• Proactive, quality-driven mindset with a strong focus on improving user experience.
• Effective communicator across technical and non-technical stakeholders with ability to coach teams.
• Comfortable navigating complexity and ambiguity, with genuine interest in autonomous driving and passenger experience.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with ALM tools (e.g. Polarion) for requirements management.
• Experience with testbench environments (HiL, ViL) and AI assisted development.
• Awareness of automotive standards (ASPICE, ISO 26262).

What they offer

• Competitive salary including bonus.
• Hybrid work setup with flexible working hours and work arrangements.
• Home office budget and monthly expense allowance.
• Remote work from outside Germany up to 6 weeks per year from over 35 countries.
• Fully subsidized public transport ticket and MOIA ride discounts.
• Learning environment with continuous learning days, trainings, conferences, and language classes.
