We strive to not only deliver high-quality software, but also to continuously improve our release and testing processes, and are currently ramping up our efforts on test, release and deployment automation to automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks.

Your Role:

  • Define, implement and validate component and end-to-end test automation for our autonomous drone platform.

  • Knowledge of C/C++, Python and embedded systems (bare-metal and Linux)

Our process and tech stack is based on the following, so experience in any of these are an added plus:

  • Software running in cloud-based and embedded systems
  • AWS services and container technologies

You are a reliable and dedicated team player with strong, hands-on experience implementing automated testing for robotic systems. With your experience, you can identify what to test, and you have the knowledge, skills and drive to select and implement the right solution.
