Promote and evolve the software verification and validation (V&V) strategy for embedded products, including power meters, environmental monitors and controls, and edge gateways.
Design, implement, and maintain manual and automated test coverage for embedded Linux software, firmware, and device‑level features.
Develop and execute system‑level, integration, regression, and stress tests, including scenarios that mirror real‑world customer deployments (e.g., fully‑loaded devices, long‑duration uptime, and fault conditions).
Collaborate with software and hardware engineers to review requirements, designs, and risks, ensuring testability and quality are built in early.
Investigate field and manufacturing issues by reproducing failures, analyzing logs and network traffic, and performing root‑cause analysis.
Contribute to test automation frameworks and CI pipelines to improve repeatability, coverage, and release confidence.
Validate industrial and building‑automation communications protocols, as well as TCP/IP networks, and device‑to‑cloud interactions (MQTT).
Define quality metrics and provide clear, data‑driven assessments of release readiness.

Bachelor’s degree in engineering or similar field and 5-10 years of related experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
Demonstrated experience in software quality, test engineering, or verification roles, with a strong focus on embedded or systems‑level testing; typically, 6 years.
Hands‑on experience testing embedded Linux systems and/or firmware‑driven devices.
Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP) and experience validating device communications over wired and wireless networks.
Experience testing industrial or building‑automation protocols (e.g., Modbus, BACnet, or similar).
Proficiency with test automation and scripting, such as Python, shell scripting, or similar languages.
Experience working with hardware‑integrated software systems, including interaction with sensors, meters, or I/O.
Experience testing industrial / device UI’s, particularly with Squish.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, version control systems (Git), and tracking tools like Jira and Zephyr.
Ability to analyze logs, packet captures, and system behavior to isolate complex, cross‑disciplinary issues.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work cross‑functionally with software, hardware, product, and manufacturing teams.
