Test Automation Engineer

We are looking for a Test Automation Engineer with strong system-level testing, test automation, and troubleshooting skills. The candidate should be able to design test strategies, build reusable test environments, and automate testing of complex systems involving Windows, Linux containers, embedded devices, virtualization, and networks.

Mandatory

Testing & Test Strategy

• Strong knowledge of black-box, white-box, and gray-box testing
• Functional, integration, system, end-to-end, regression, and non-functional testing
• Test coverage, traceability, testability, and root-cause analysis
• Ability to independently design system-level test strategies

System Test Environment

• Experience designing complex, reusable test environments supporting multiple test scenarios
• Ability to automate deployment, configuration, reset, and cleanup
• Experience troubleshooting interactions between multiple software, hardware, and network components

Platforms & Infrastructure

Hands-on testing experience with:

• Windows applications, services, installation, configuration, and diagnostics
• Linux and containerized software, e.g. Docker/Podman
• Virtual environments using Hyper-V, VMware, or equivalent
• Multi-VM systems and virtual networking

Test Automation

Strong automated test development skills, preferably including:

• BDD frameworks such as Reqnroll
• RESTful API automation
• UI/web automation such as Playwright
• Reusable test libraries, test data, and configuration management
• Debugging and maintaining automated tests

CI/CD

Practical CI/CD experience is mandatory:

• Creating and maintaining automated pipelines
• Integrating automated tests into CI/CD
• Test agent/runner deployment and distributed test execution
• Artifact/test-result handling and pipeline troubleshooting

Communication

• Fluent spoken and written English
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills
• Able to communicate technical problems clearly and work effectively with developers, testers, and architects

Highly Desired

Networking & Industrial Communication

• Solid TCP/IP knowledge: TCP/UDP, IP addressing, DNS, routing, firewalls, etc.
• Network troubleshooting and packet analysis, e.g. Wireshark
• Experience with industrial protocols such as OPC UA, PROFINET, Modbus TCP, PROFIBUS, or IEC 61850

Programming & Scripting

Experience with:

• C#
• PowerShell
• Git
• JSON/YAML/XML
• Command-line automation

Bonus

Cybersecurity

Knowledge of:

• PKI, X.509 certificates, and TLS
• Certificate chains, trust, and lifecycle management
• Authentication, authorization, secure communication, and remote access

Azure DevOps

Specific experience with Azure DevOps is a bonus, particularly:

• YAML pipelines
• Test-agent deployment
• Automated test execution
• Test-result publishing and pipeline troubleshooting

AI-Assisted Testing

Experience using AI for:

• Test-case and test-data generation
• Identifying missing/edge-case scenarios
• Test automation development
• Log and failure analysis

Embedded Product Test Experience

• Embedded devices/hardware and hardware/software integration

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate can work with a complex system involving:

Windows + Linux containers + VMs + embedded devices + industrial networks

and independently understand the architecture, identify risks, design the test strategy and reusable environment, automate testing through CI/CD, and diagnose failures across system boundaries.

For this senior role, system-level engineering, test architecture, automation, and troubleshooting capability are more important than familiarity with any single tool or framework.

Building a cleaner, smarter future takes all kinds of minds: the curious, the courageous, and the creative. That's why we welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences.
