  • Own and evolve the team’s test management system, helping to ensure that test assets, coverage, execution, and reporting are organised, scalable, and effective.
  • Manage and support test hardware setups, and play a key role in maintaining an efficient, well-structured lab environment.
  • Work closely with software, systems, and other cross-functional teams to identify issues, triage defects, debug failures, and drive timely resolution.
  • Represent System Test in technical discussions, project reviews, and cross-functional forums.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Strong experience in embedded systems and Real Time Operating Systems (RTOS).
  • Strong experience in software testing and test automation principles, including development of robust, maintainable automated test solutions.
  • Strong experience with scripting in Python.
  • Experience with a variety of MCU and DSP cores/processors.
  • Experience developing and implementing embedded software tests on development boards.
  • Experience using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes and logic analysers for bring-up and debugging.
  • Excellent debugging, problem-solving, organisational, and communication skills.
  • Experience with Jira, Git, and continuous integration systems such as Jenkins.
  • Experience with test management systems.
