Job Description

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Test Engineer to lead in development of software solutions/ecosystems to enable faster testing/validation of our products. You’ll be part of a small, mission-driven team and have significant ownership over decisions. We’re growing quickly so there are ample opportunities for career growth. This is hardware test automation, end to end. Build test infrastructure that stresses our state of the art products and sensors to generate test data, then manage data pipelines to create actionable information for the team. This is not web/app QA (e.g., Selenium/Cypress) - it’s test automation for hardware systems and manufacturing environments. This role is based out of our San Francisco Office 5 days/week, and expected travel up to 20%.

Job Responsibility

  • Develop and maintain automated test applications and GUIs for production environments, hardware validation, and reliability testing
  • Software integrations with physical instrumentation and custom hardware/firmware
  • Design operator-friendly user interfaces for running and monitoring tests (desktop or web-based)
  • Architect, design, and implement cloud data pipelines, data visualization, and test result reporting
  • Software distribution methodologies to help the team use the tools you create

Requirements

  • 5+ years of software development experience with a focus in software/hardware integrated systems
  • Track records of shipping high-volume consumer products, including manufacturing support in Asia
  • Experience with LabVIEW, Python (PyQt, Dash, Streamlit), or C#/WPF for test GUIs
  • Experience with git, github, command line scripting tools, Homebrew (mac OS), apt (linux)
  • Experience with cloud services (AWS)
  • Familiarity with hardware communication protocols (VISA, Modbus, serial, etc.)
  • Understanding of test sequencing, data logging, and hardware automation
  • BSEE, BSCE, BSCS, BSME or equivalent. MS preferred

Nice to have

Knowledge of web-based UIs or cross-platform development is a plus

What we offer

  • Full access to health, vision, and dental insurance for you and your dependents
  • Supplemental life insurance
  • Flexible PTO
  • Commuter benefits to ease your daily commute
  • Paid parental leave
  • Every Eight Sleep employee receives a Pod of their own
  • Equity participation
  • Periodic equity refreshments based on performance
