Software Test Automation Expert (SDET)

Your Role \& Responsibilities
---------------------------------

• Design, build and own the software test automation infrastructure and frameworks for the Robotics team's software systems


• Develop automated test suites covering unit, integration, system and regression testing across robotics software components


• Work closely with robotics software engineers to define testable requirements and embed quality practices early in the development cycle ("shift\-left" testing)


• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines with integrated automated testing (build, test, deploy)


• Identify, triage and track defects; collaborate with engineers to root\-cause and resolve issues


• Define test strategy, coverage metrics and quality KPIs for the team's software deliverables


• Evaluate, select and introduce the test automation tools and frameworks best suited to robotics/embedded software


• Continuously improve the reliability, speed and maintainability of the test infrastructure


• Act as a quality advocate within the Robotics team, promoting a strong testing culture without belonging to a separate QA function

• Proven experience as a Software Test Automation Engineer, SDET, or Software Engineer in Test, ideally within robotics, embedded systems, or complex hardware/software products


• Hands\-on experience building test automation frameworks from scratch, not just operating existing ones


• Experience with CI/CD tooling (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions)


• Familiarity with robotics software ecosystems (ROS/ROS2\) and/or simulation environments (e.g. Gazebo) is a strong plus


• Experience with hardware\-in\-the\-loop (HIL) testing, or testing systems that interact with physical hardware, is a plus


• A genuinely strong testing mindset \- able to think through edge cases, failure modes and system reliability, not just "does it pass"


• Comfortable working embedded directly within a development/engineering team rather than a separate QA department


• An ownership mentality \- comfortable building and owning infrastructure from the ground up


• Fluent in English; German is a plus
