Job Description:

We’re looking for a Test and Automation Engineer to join our hardware R&D team building long-range HF communication systems. You’ll build and scale the systems that validate and operate our hardware across both development and production, working across test automation, lab infrastructure, and hardware coordination. In this role, you’ll own how hardware is exercised end-to-end, ensuring reliable and repeatable performance in demanding environments.

Job Responsibility:

  • Designing, developing, and maintaining automated test frameworks for hardware validation and production testing
  • Building and maintaining automation for hardware coordination and state control
  • managing transitions between operational states and integrating with monitoring systems, safety interlocks, and protection mechanisms
  • Developing Python-based tooling and test suites to exercise hardware interfaces, including Ethernet, SPI/I2C/Serial, Modbus, SCPI, and custom protocols
  • Implementing and maintaining communication with industrial peripherals and test equipment
  • Automating lab instrumentation, including oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, VNAs, and cable/component testers
  • Creating and managing CI/CD pipelines that integrate hardware test results into the broader build and release workflow
  • Instrumenting and monitoring test and production infrastructure by collecting metrics, generating reports, and tracking hardware test coverage over time
  • Collaborating closely with hardware, RF, and infrastructure engineers to improve system reliability, observability, and testability

Requirements:

  • Experienced in hardware test automation, production/manufacturing automation, or embedded systems validation
  • Strong in Python, with a focus on building clean, maintainable, and scalable automation frameworks
  • Hands-on experience communicating with and coordinating industrial devices and peripherals
  • Familiar with Ethernet-based systems and protocols (TCP/UDP sockets, network configuration, packet capture/analysis)
  • Experienced in automating lab instruments using SCPI, VISA, or vendor-specific APIs
  • Comfortable working in Linux environments, including command-line tooling, shell scripting, and service management
  • Able to take ownership of systems end-to-end and operate effectively in a highly collaborative, fast-paced environment

Nice to have:

  • Experience with RF systems, SDR, or HF communication systems
  • Familiarity with Protocol Buffers or similar serialization frameworks
  • Experience with CI/CD systems such as Jenkins or Bamboo for hardware-integrated pipelines
  • Understanding of network infrastructure concepts such as VLANs, DHCP, PXE/TFTP boot, and SSH tunneling
What we offer:
  • A performance-based bonus structure unmatched anywhere in the industry. We combine our profits across desks, teams and offices into a global profit pool
  • The opportunity to work alongside best-in-class professionals from over 50 different countries
  • 25 paid vacation days in your first year, increasing to 30 from your second year onwards
  • Training opportunities, discounts on health insurance, and fully paid first-class commuting expenses
  • Extensive office perks, including breakfast, lunch and dinner, world-class barista coffee, in-house physio and chair massages, organized sports and leisure activities, and Friday afternoon drinks
  • Training and continuous learning opportunities, including access to conferences and tech events
  • Competitive relocation packages and visa sponsorship where necessary for expats
