We are looking for a Senior Automation Engineer with strong expertise in test automation and a solid background in embedded systems (considered a strong advantage). You will collaborate with a client pioneering transformative technology in the field of cardiac electrophysiology, focused on developing an integrated system that enables physicians to map, ablate, and monitor cardiac arrhythmias with high precision.

The role entails designing, developing, and maintaining Python-based automated test solutions to validate embedded software and system-level functionality, ensuring reliability, performance, and safety of complex medical devices. You will contribute to verification activities across hardware–software integration, support continuous testing practices, and help deliver faster, safer, and more effective treatment solutions for patients with complex heart rhythm disorders.

Requirements:

* 5 years in testing with focus on embedded systems testing (HW SW integration)

* Experience in *medical, automotive, or other safety-critical domains*

* Programming skills in *Python* or scripting preferred

* Experience with:

* Test automation frameworks (PyTest, Robot, etc.)

* Linux/Unix environments

* CI/CD tools (Git, Jenkins)

* Understanding of:

* Communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, etc.)

* Real-time systems and firmware behavior

* Requirements-based testing & traceability

* Test design techniques (boundary, equivalence, risk-based)

* Experience with *fault injection and system-level testing*

* Strong debugging and analytical skills

* Experience in *medical devices or other regulated industries*

* Understanding of *safety-critical systems and risk management (e.g., FMEA)*

Responsibilities:

Test Strategy & Quality Ownership

* Define and implement *test strategy* for embedded medical systems across the full development lifecycle

* Act as *quality owner* for product/subsystem, ensuring compliance with requirements and standards

* Drive *risk-based testing approach* (functional, performance, reliability, fault conditions)

Embedded Systems Testing

* Design and execute *system, integration, and hardware-in-the-loop tests*

* Validate *embedded software interacting with sensors, electronics, and real-time systems*

* Perform *fault-injection, boundary, and stress testing* for safety-critical scenarios

Test Automation (Python-focused)

* Develop and maintain *automated test frameworks (e.g., PyTest, custom Python tools)*

* Create automated scripts for:

** Functional validation

** Regression testing

** Device communication & data validation

* Integrate tests into *CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Git, etc.)*

Test Design & Documentation

* Translate requirements into:

** Test cases

** Test procedures

** Verification protocols

* Maintain full *traceability (requirements ↔ test cases ↔ results)*

* Produce *test reports and validation documentation* aligned with regulatory standards

Defect Analysis & Troubleshooting

* Analyze test results and identify:

** Defects

** Failure modes

** Root causes

* Collaborate with HW/SW teams to debug complex cross-domain issues
