Requirements

• Quality-First Mindset: Quality is the job, not a gate at the end of it. You value simplicity, reliability, and velocity in equal measure, treat every escaped defect as a process to fix, and would rather prevent a bug than file one.
• Strong Software Engineering: 3+ years (or strong equivalent) writing production-quality code daily in Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar.
• Test Automation & Frameworks: Deep experience in automated test infrastructure (Playwright, pytest, Jest) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Systems Thinking: Comfortable debugging networked/distributed systems.
• Collaboration: You enjoy pairing with developers and Systems Engineers.

Nice To Haves

• Hardware-in-the-loop or system-level testing
• Embedded systems or real-time applications
• ROS2, Docker, or robotics software stacks

Responsibilities

• Build and own automated tests and feature test suites (end-to-end, integration)
• Validate features in real time during the sprint, partnering tightly with developers so defects are solved as they appear.
• Hand off maintainable feature test code to Systems Test Engineers and support them as they extend it.
• Build SW-based mocks/simulators for hardware (e.g., grippers) so testing isn't gated on physical hardware.
• Develop tooling and infrastructure that makes the whole QA org faster (test data, reporting).
• Review designs and PRs for testability and push coverage upstream into development.
