Summary

Job Description

You'll manually test and help improve the audio experience in Ford vehicles, making sure music, calls, alerts, and other sounds work perfectly from the car's apps all the way to the speakers.

The team will train you on Ford's audio systems, and you'll use basic scripting (Bash or Python) to automate tests where possible and save time.

You'll work closely with developers, review and enhance existing test plans, and help validate new features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on real vehicle hardware.

The ideal candidate has at least 3 years of hands-on audio testing experience with devices (not just apps), preferably in automotive or consumer electronics, and some exposure to Android-based systems.

The role is onsite in Palo Alto 4 days a week, and is open because the team currently has no dedicated QA engineers.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
