Job Description
Key Responsibilities
Actively participate in and drive end-to-end solution testing using real hardware/firmware infrastructure, spending hands-on time conducting functional and non-functional testing solutions
Personally develop, review, and refine comprehensive QA test plans covering functional, integration, and system-level testing scenarios for both firmware and hardware layers
Design and execute black-box and grey-box testing to validate functional requirements, uncover edge cases, and perform deep-level debugging of issues
Develop and contribute to test automation frameworks, scripts, and infrastructure; actively code automation solutions for complex testing scenarios
Lead and mentor a Solutions QA team, fostering a culture of technical excellence, quality ownership, and continuous improvement
Establish and enforce quality gates and acceptance criteria aligned with product requirements, risk analysis, and business objectives
Collaborate daily with engineering and design teams to understand implementation details, identify testability challenges, and coordinate comprehensive testing strategies
Plan, track, and manage QA tasks and team workload, ensuring realistic timelines and resource optimization while maintaining hands-on involvement
Conduct regular status reporting to leadership with quality metrics, test coverage analysis, identified risks, and mitigation strategies
Identify and implement process improvements and enhanced methodologies to strengthen testing effectiveness and efficiency
Required Qualifications
10+ years of hands-on QA engineering experience, with 5+ years specifically in hardware or firmware/embedded systems testing, plus team leadership experience
Extensive hands-on experience with firmware and embedded systems testing, including driver-level, protocol-level, and system integration testing
Demonstrated expertise in writing and executing functional and non-functional test cases, test automation scripts, and test frameworks
Strong practical experience with black-box and grey-box testing methodologies, including hardware debugging and root cause analysis
Extensive hands-on experience conducting end-to-end solution testing using real hardware infrastructure and test benches (not simulation-only environments)
Proven track record of successfully leading and growing high-performing QA teams while maintaining strong technical contributions
Demonstrated experience in building AI tools for creating test-cases from requirements specification, and test execution using orchestration
Proficiency in test automation languages/tools (e.g., Python, C, Tcl, SystemVerilog) with demonstrated ability to develop sophisticated test frameworks
Strong project management skills, process ownership mindset, and excellent communication abilities
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent hands-on technical experience
Preferred Qualifications
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices in hardware testing environments
Knowledge of debugging tools and techniques for embedded systems and hardware validation
Experience with version control systems and test management tools
Understanding of formal verification and simulation-based validation
Agile/Scrum methodology experience
