This role requires hands-on manual testing, log analysis, and scripting to automate repetitive checks.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform manual testing of embedded software and system integrations on ARM-based platforms.
• Validate functionality of cameras, sensors, GPIOs, cellular, Wi-Fi, and MQTT communication.
• Use Linux command-line tools (SSH, mount, log parsing) for system validation and debugging.
• Write and execute Bash/Python scripts for test automation and data validation.
• Collaborate with development teams to report, track, and verify bugs.
• Assist in maintaining CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Git) for test execution and reporting.

• Exposure to hardware testing (multimeter, oscilloscope) is a plus.
• Familiarity with SQL and Visual Studio
• Proficient with Windows command-line tools, and general operation
• Experience using oscilloscopes, DVMs, programmable power supplies, terminal servers and other common measurement instrumentation devices
• Familiarity with hardware systems
• Knowledge of test script frameworks and configuring the test environment using automated tools such as Selenium
• Experience in network protocol analysis using tools like Wireshark
• Experience vehicle bus testing and automation (OBD-II, J1939 protocols)
  

Other Skills:

• Testing Expertise: Comprehensive knowledge of testing principles and reporting, with the ability to develop and maintain detailed test plans and documentation.
• Analytical Thinking: Strong critical thinking skills to identify edge cases, logical inconsistencies, and potential failure points during the requirement phase.
• Agile Adaptability: Proven ability to navigate diverse SDLC environments, specifically Agile and DevOps, with a focus on continuous integration and rapid iteration.
• User Advocacy: Dedicated to quality and innovation, acting as a proxy for the end-user to ensure products are intuitive, accessible, and performant.
