  • Self-Driven / Self-Motivated – This is a fundamental requirement for this role. As an SV Engineer, you are expected to deliver a high-quality product, from reviewing requirements to delivering the finished product, with minimal need for supervision.

  • Essential Duties & Responsibilities
  • Reviewing requirements, specifications, and technical design documents to provide timely and meaningful feedback.
  • Creating detailed, comprehensive, and well-structured test plans and test cases
  • Estimating, prioritizing, planning, and coordinating testing activities
  • Design, develop, and execute manual and automation test cases.
  • Identify, record, document thoroughly, and track bugs.
  • Perform thorough regression testing when bugs are resolved.
  • Develop and apply testing processes for new and existing products.
  • Liaise with internal teams (e.g., developers and product managers) to identify system requirements.
  • Stay up to date with new testing tools and test strategies
  • Provide process improvement recommendations.

 

Qualifications

  • Thorough understanding of test processes and test methodologies.
  • 5 years’ experience in embedded system testing. Your Title and Salary would be based on your experience and the potential value you could deliver to Shure.
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment and deliver quality software to production within tight schedules.
  • Ability to adjust to rapidly changing requirements and timelines.
  • Track record of completing assignments on time with a high degree of quality
  • Ability to build, manage, motivate and inspire a diverse and geographically dispersed (on-site, off-site, offshore) technical team.
  • Excellent team player with a consistently positive attitude and collaborative approach to problem-solving, options analysis, and continuous improvement of process, team, and systems.
  • Bachelor of Engineering in Telecommunication or Electrical/Electronic or Computer Science.
  • 10 years of relevant experience in embedded systems involving software, firmware, and hardware testing.
  • Commitment to product excellence and quality
  • Experience with defect tracking, test management, and software revision control.
  • Experience in IP and networking protocols (TCP/IP, SIP, Ethernet, IGMP, DHCP, Active directory).
  • Experience in audio testing is a plus.
  • Experience in providing and presenting project status reports through the development cycle.
  • Team-oriented; strong interpersonal skills.
