About the Team

The Systems Integration team is responsible for building the infrastructure, tooling, and validation systems that ensure our device software is reliable, testable, and ready to ship. We design and maintain automated test frameworks, hardware-in-the-loop labs, and release pipelines that keep quality signals trustworthy and enable rapid, safe product launches. Our work spans developer tools, automation, systems integration, and cross-team collaboration to ensure every release meets the highest standards.

About the Role

As a Software Engineer, Quality and Developer Tools, you will build and own the systems that validate our device software—from test frameworks and regression infrastructure to hardware-in-the-loop labs and release gates. You’ll design the tooling and automation that keep quality signals trustworthy, integrate them into CI/CD, and make it easy for engineers and QA vendor technicians to execute reliable, repeatable workflows.

We’re looking for engineers with deep experience in software quality, automation, developer tooling, and hardware-software integration who thrive on building scalable, reliable systems for validation and release readiness.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of four days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.

In this role, you will:

  • Test infrastructure & frameworks: Design, implement, and maintain a unified test framework for device software across unit, integration, system, and end-to-end testing, with reproducible runs and integrations with GitHub, Linear, and Slack.

  • CI/CD integration & releases: Integrate test suites with Buildkite, enforce promotion criteria for staging and production, auto-file regressions, and publish traceable artifacts and release notes.

  • Hardware-in-the-loop lab design & orchestration: Plan and bring up racks, power and networking systems, and orchestration for device testing; support automated flashing, provisioning, and telemetry capture.

  • Automation and developer tooling: Develop tools for API and firmware validation, result triage, log capture, replayable bug reports, and workflows that improve engineering velocity and debugging efficiency.

  • Quality signals, metrics, and flake control: Build dashboards and alerts for pass rates, stability, and release readiness; detect and quarantine flaky tests; drive root-cause analysis with owners; and track delivery metrics that protect release health.

  • Vendor enablement: Create clear procedures and tooling that allow QA vendor technicians to execute repeatable processes, review their reports, and maintain a queue of rig maintenance and repairs.

  • Cross-team collaboration: Partner with embedded and systems software teams on testability, and with release infrastructure engineers on pipelines, signing, staged rollouts, and rollback/forward strategies.

You might thrive in this role if you:

  • Have deep experience building software quality, test automation, or developer tooling systems for hardware products shipped at scale.

  • Are proficient in Python, C, C++, or Rust, and have strong Linux fundamentals, including processes, networking, storage, and udev/systemd.

  • Have experience building CI/CD pipelines, artifact management systems, and reproducible or isolated test environments.

  • Have demonstrated success designing and operating hardware-in-the-loop labs and device orchestration systems at scale.

  • Are fluent with test reliability techniques such as failure triage, flake detection and quarantine, and signal-quality guardrails.

  • Have strong debugging skills across software, firmware, devices, and release infrastructure.

  • Work well across teams and enjoy improving the systems that make engineering and release processes more scalable and reliable.
