Simrandeep Singh Bindra — Software Engineer
Senior Network & Embedded Test Automation Engineer with 12+ years of experience building scalable validation solutions across automotive Ethernet, industrial networking, telecom and enterprise wireless systems. I specialize in designing Python-based automation frameworks executed through Jenkins-driven CI/CD pipelines, currently supporting 800+ release regression and 150+ daily regression test cases for vehicle network platforms at Ford. My work enables overnight release validation, faster defect feedback and stable integration of complex multi-ECU systems. My core strength lies in end-to-end L2/L3 protocol and automotive Ethernet validation, including DHCP, VLAN, routing, ARP, TCP/UDP communication and gateway behavior across distributed ECU topologies (ECG, TCU, SYNC). I regularly perform packet-level root cause analysis using Wireshark and system logs to isolate integration and forwarding-plane issues. Beyond execution, I focus on framework architecture and reusable automation utilities that improve environment readiness, scalability and long-term maintainability. Previously, as Test Lead for industrial Ethernet solutions (Hirschmann / Belden), I: -Led automation strategy for carrier-grade and rugged switching platforms -Mentored and onboarded teams of 5–6 engineers-Built CLI, SNMP and API-driven validation workflows -Simulated real-world network fault and redundancy scenarios Earlier in my career, I led system and regression validation for LTE and enterprise wireless solutions for Nokia and HPE, contributing to interoperability, roaming and mobility testing. Core Domains- Test Automation Architecture (Python, PyTest/Slash)CI/CD Validation (Jenkins) Automotive Ethernet & ECU Communication L2/L3 Protocol Testing & Network Topologies CANoe / CANalyzer / VMCU Packet-Level Debugging & Root Cause Analysis I am particularly interested in roles focused on: Automotive Ethernet validation Network protocol test automation Senior SDET / system validation Scalable CI-driven quality engineering
