Hands-on experience with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) automation and testing physical robotics or embedded platforms.
Demonstrated systems-thinking approach to software quality, with the capability to analyze end-to-end interactions across web applications, REST APIs, network connectivity, and robotic control systems.
Experience with version control, build systems, and CI/CD toolchains (Git/GitHub, BuildKite, Jenkins, or similar).
Strong problem-solving skills with a ‘tinkerer/builder’ mindset and enthusiasm for hands-on work with robotic hardware.
Desirable Experience
Experience testing web interfaces for controlling embedded or autonomous hardware systems.
Understanding of modern web frameworks (React.js), HTML, CSS, and RESTful APIs.
Experience with Jira, TestRail, or equivalent test management platforms.
Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies in continuous delivery environments.
Direct experience in planning and executing test strategies for complex robotic or autonomous systems, including simulation, field testing, or hardware stress testing.
