Analyze software and system requirements to identify test objectives, conditions, and expected results.

Understand embedded-system architecture, interfaces, operating modes, and expected behaviour.

Develop test plans, test procedures, test cases, and requirement traceability.

Design and implement reusable and maintainable automated test software using Python and object-oriented programming.

Develop test frameworks, libraries, utilities, simulators, and supporting tools.

Integrate automated tests into continuous integration pipelines.

Configure test execution, reporting, logging, and result collection within the automated pipeline.

Execute tests, analyze results, investigate failures, and identify whether issues originate from the test environment, test software, or product under test.

Work closely with software developers, system engineers, and validation teams to resolve technical issues.

Participate in requirements, design, code, test-plan, and test-result reviews.

Maintain test documentation and follow established software-development and quality processes.

Estimate work, communicate progress, and deliver assigned activities within schedule.

REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

A University degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or other relevant disciplines, or an equivalent combination of education and experience

Strong Python development skills, including object-oriented programming.

Minimum of 8 years experience designing automated test software or test frameworks.

Ability to analyze detailed software requirements and translate them into test plans and test cases.

Ability to understand and validate embedded-system behaviour.

Experience with source-control and software-development practices.

Experience integrating automated tests into Jenkins or a similar CI/CD environment.

Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills.

Ability to produce clear technical documentation.

Good written and verbal communication skills.

Ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary technical teams.

NICE TO HAVE SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

Experience testing embedded Linux or real-time embedded systems.

Experience with hardware-in-the-loop or software-in-the-loop test environments.

Knowledge of embedded communication interfaces or protocols.

Experience with pytest or other Python test frameworks.

Experience with Git, test reporting tools, and requirements-management tools.

Familiarity with Agile development practices.

Experience working in a regulated or high-reliability engineering environment.

Vacancy: This posting is for a currently vacant role, and the successful candidate will be hired into an existing open position.
