System Verification Engineer, Test Automation

The role

You will build test infrastructure that automates software update verification on hardware instruments. You will define test methods, develop system tests, and automate them to ensure safety, performance, and compliance.

What you will do

• Design, implement and maintain automated test frameworks and test rigs.
• Build tooling and pipelines to verify software updates on instruments automatically.
• Define test methods and acceptance criteria for system-level verification of medical devices.
• Plan and execute verification activities, system and regression tests, and produce audit-ready reports.
• Contribute to traceability matrices, V&V plans and design reviews.
• Collaborate with Firmware, Electronics, Algorithms, Software, QA/RA and Manufacturing Engineering.
• Ensure verification activities comply with regulatory standards.
• Continuously improve verification processes, infrastructure and tooling.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years in system-level test and verification of complex hardware-software products.
• Track record of developing tests and building test frameworks and test rigs.
• Experience with hardware-in-the-loop and physical stimulus setups, instrument control and fixtures.
• Experience integrating into CI and release pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, Jenkins or equivalent).
• Strong hands-on Python for test automation, framework development, tooling and data analysis.
• Working knowledge of embedded systems and common protocols (UART, SPI, I²C, CAN, USB, Ethernet).
• C and C++ at a level to understand and instrument firmware under test.
• Comfort debugging across hardware, firmware and software with oscilloscopes, JTAG/SWD debuggers and protocol sniffers.
• Ability to turn requirements and product specifications into test methods, verification strategies and acceptance criteria.
• Degree in Electrical, Embedded, Software or Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, Physics or similar.

Nice to have

• Experience from a regulated development process.
• Documentation habits that produce records an auditor can follow in clear, structured English.
• Experience in medical devices, automotive, robotics, industrial automation or another regulated hardware industry.
• Owning a test automation platform shared by more than one team or product line.
• Verifying devices that combine optics, sensors, custom electronics and embedded software.
• Setting up reporting and dashboarding for continuous verification inside build pipelines.
• Shell scripting (Bash) and infrastructure-as-code / YAML pipeline definitions.
• Contributing to FDA submissions, EU MDR technical files or Notified Body audits.
