Embedded Software & System Test Engineer Verified today
About the Role
As an Embedded Software & System Test Engineer, you will help ensure that embedded software, hardware and satellite systems work together as intended. You will develop test software, use automated tests and test environments, and support the integration and verification of satellite systems throughout the development process.
You will work hands-on with real hardware and software, investigate test failures and work closely with embedded software, electronics and systems engineers to identify root causes and implement solutions. You will have the opportunity to improve and scale our automated testing and verification approach as our missions and products evolve.
Your Responsibilities
- Design, develop and maintain automated tests for embedded software and integrated satellite systems.
- Develop test software, scripts, simulators and test infrastructure using Python, C/C++ and other appropriate tools.
- Test how embedded software, electronics, communication interfaces and ground systems work together.
- Perform software, integration and system-level testing on engineering models and flight hardware.
- Develop and use Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test environments where appropriate.
- Analyse logs, telemetry, test results and system behaviour to identify and investigate failures.
- Debug failures and work with software, electronics and systems engineers to determine root causes and verify fixes.
- Translate software and system requirements into test cases and verification procedures.
- Develop and maintain regression tests as software and hardware evolve.
- Prepare test procedures and document test results, anomalies and verification evidence.
- Contribute to improving and scaling our automated testing and verification approach.
- Support system integration and verification activities throughout the development and test lifecycle of satellite missions.
