Develop and maintain automated test frameworks and test suites using Python and Pytest. Test communication and interaction between embedded software, edge devices, APIs, and hardware components. Perform API testing, including REST/ and SOAP web services. Develop and execute tests involving CAN communication protocols. Use tools such as ReadyAPI for API and web-service testing. Perform functional, integration, system, and regression testing of embedded products. Troubleshoot failures involving software, firmware, device communications, and hardware interfaces. Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines using GitHub runners. Analyze test results, document defects, and collaborate with embedded software, firmware, systems, and hardware engineering teams. Support product verification and validation activities in accordance with applicable quality and engineering processes. Required Qualifications Strong professional experience in embedded systems software testing and test automation. Hands-on experience writing automated test code using Python. Strong experience with Pytest or similar Python-based test frameworks. Experience testing physical hardware products, embedded devices, or edge devices. Experience with CAN communication protocols. Experience with API testing, including APIs. Experience testing SOAP web services. Experience with ReadyAPI or similar API testing tools. Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, preferably using GitHub runners. Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across software/hardware interfaces.
