Software Test Engineer @ San Jose, CA - Full time / Contract

REQUIREMENT

Role : Software Test Engineer

Location : San Jose, CA (On-site)

Type : Full-Time / Contract

Exp : 10+yrs

The Opportunity : Staff Software Test Engineer - who is less of a "script runner" and more of a tool builder.

Primary Focus : Simulator Development (C#), Automation (Squish), & Firmware / Hardware Validation. In this pivotal role, you will own the enhancement and maintenance of our proprietary Software

Simulator the critical tool used to validate our robotic surgical hardware and firmware without needing the physical robot every time. You will spend the majority of your time coding in C# to expand the simulator's capabilities, while also using Squish and Python to drive automation.

If you are a C# developer at heart who loves developing a software simulation, this is your role.

What You Will Actually Be Doing

• Core Responsibility : Lead the design, development, and enhancement of the CLIENTS System Simulator using C# . You will build the virtual environment that mocks hardware behavior to test firmware and software logic.
• Automation Strategy : Develop and execute automated test scripts using Squish (GUI automation) and Python.
• Hybrid Validation : Perform a mix of automated and manual testing . You will manually execute complex test cases where automation isn't yet feasible, ensuring total system safety.
• Hardware / Firmware Interface : Validate the interaction between high-level software and low-level firmware / hardware components via the simulator.
• Compliance & Process : Draft verification protocols and manage requirements / defects using JAMA and Jira , ensuring strict adherence to FDA QSR and IEC 62304 standards.
• CI / CD Integration : Integrate simulator tests into the Continuous Integration pipeline (Jenkins / GitHub) to catch regressions early.

The "Must-Have" Skills (Non-Negotiables)

Preferred Qualifications

Development vs. Testing : Qt Creator and PyQt are used by developers to build the application, whereas Squish is used by QA engineers to verify and test the built application.

Squish : Squish is a dedicated, professional-grade GUI test automation tool used to create and run automated functional regression tests for applications developed with various UI toolkits, including Qt, web, iOS, and Android. It allows quality assurance (QA) teams to automate interactions with the application's interface. The candidate we are searching for must develop a Simulation using C# while building a test automation using Squish. If not Sqush, experience in similar equivalent tools is a must.
