Your Mission
We are seeking a skilled and motivated Testing Engineer to join our Product Engineering team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in automated testing and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) systems. In this role, you will be responsible for establishing and scaling automated testing flows, setting up and maintaining a HIL testing system, and creating an abstraction layer for signal injection and testing. You will play a critical role in ensuring the reliability and performance of our robotic systems by overseeing the end-to-end testing of both hardware and software components and end-of-line testing of our production.

Key Responsibilities:
  • HIL System Development:
    • Design, implement, and maintain a scalable Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing system for our robotic platforms.
    • Develop a robust infrastructure to enable the simulation and testing of real-world scenarios in a controlled environment.
    • Integrate HIL systems with existing development workflows to facilitate continuous testing and validation.
  • Automated Testing Flows:
    • Establish and optimize automated testing flows for both software and hardware components of our robotic systems.
    • Develop and maintain test scripts, test cases, and testing frameworks to ensure comprehensive coverage of all functionalities.
    • Ensure the scalability and reliability of automated testing processes to support rapid development cycles.
  • End-to-End Testing:
    • Lead the end-to-end testing process, encompassing both software and hardware components, to validate system performance and functionality.
    • Identify, document, and track defects and issues, working closely with engineering teams to drive resolution.
    • Develop and execute test plans, including regression, performance, and stress testing, to ensure product quality.
  • Collaboration & Documentation:
    • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including software developers, hardware engineers, and QA specialists, to ensure seamless integration of testing processes.
    • Document test methodologies, procedures, and results, providing clear and actionable insights to stakeholders.
    • Continuously improve testing processes by implementing best practices and staying up-to-date with industry trends and advancements.
Your Profile
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related field; Master's degree preferred.
  • 3+ years of experience in automated testing, HIL systems, or related roles.
  • Strong programming skills in languages such as Python and C++. Rust knowledge is a plus.
  • Experience with robotics, embedded systems, or similar domains is highly desirable.
  • Proficiency in developing and maintaining automated test scripts and frameworks.
  • Knowledge of signal processing, control systems, and system-level testing.
  • Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose and troubleshoot complex hardware and software issues.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a focus on teamwork and knowledge sharing.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple priorities.
