Senior HIL Hardware Engineer - Virtual Validation

About Us

Fortescue is both a proud West Australian company and a global green solutions business. We are recognised for our culture, innovation and industry-leading development of infrastructure, mining assets and green energy initiatives.

Our Opportunity

Work Location: Dawson Rd, Airport – Fortescue’s Perth office is located on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk Noongar people

Roster: Monday to Friday

The Senior HIL Hardware Engineer works with vendors to design, build, and maintain hardware benches and HIL rigs used in MIL, SIL, and HIL testing to support verification and validation activities for Autonomous sytem - mining truck . Reporting to the Virtual Validation Lead, the role focuses on physical test environments—including control cabinets, wiring, I/O interfaces, instrumentation, networks, and safety systems—enabling real hardware to be tested against simulations. Operating within established validation frameworks and toolchains, the engineer delivers robust, safe, and repeatable test rigs while collaborating with simulation, verification, and development teams to ensure setups accurately represent target systems, support efficient testing, and allow reproduction of site issues in controlled lab environments.

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and commission Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) rigs and bench test systems aligned with defined architectures and engineering standards
Define and implement hardware architectures, including I/O mappings, network topologies, and safety interlocks to replicate target system configurations
Create Plant model for HIL rigs, sensor simulation Models etc., and integrate it with the HIL
Integrate ECUs, controllers, sensors, actuators, and network devices into HIL rigs and test environments
Maintain, upgrade, and manage rig hardware, firmware, calibration, and configuration in line with configuration management practices
Collaborate with Simulation Engineers to integrate rigs with MIL/SIL/HIL toolchains, enabling synchronisation between physical hardware and simulation environments
Prepare and configure rigs for test campaigns, including wiring, instrumentation, and system configuration setup
Support issue reproduction and troubleshooting by replicating field conditions on test benches and resolving hardware, I/O, power, and communication faults
Apply engineering standards, safety requirements, and quality processes in the design, operation, and modification of rigs and test systems
Develop and maintain technical documentation, including schematics, wiring diagrams, network drawings, BOMs, and operating procedures
Manage rig utilisation and drive continuous improvement through standardisation, scalability, and optimisation of hardware, tooling, and infrastructure.

Qualifications and Experience

Bachelor of Engineering (or equivalent) in Electrical, Mechatronic, Control Systems or related discipline
Practical experience designing, building or maintaining test rigs, HIL benches or hardware test environments for embedded or control systems
Strong understanding of electronics hardware integration, including wiring, signal conditioning, power distribution, instrumentation and safety systems
Experience with industrial or vehicle communication networks (e.g. CAN, Ethernet, fieldbuses) and associated tools for configuration and troubleshooting
Hands‑on experience with Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop platforms (e.g. dSPACE, National Instruments, Vector, Speedgoat) and their configuration and integration (highly advantageous)
Expertise in Model‑Based Design and simulation toolchains (e.g. MATLAB/Simulink) and their use with HIL environments (advantageous)
Experience across the system or software development lifecycle, including integration, configuration management and test support
Proficiency with version control (e.g. GitHub) for managing rig configurations, wiring documents and related artefacts
Experience with Jira and Confluence or similar tools for work tracking and documentation
Hands-on experience in the architecture, development, integration, and commissioning of HIL test rigs for autonomous vehicle or autonomous mining system applications (highly advantageous).
