• Software development services for high-reliability applications that can include initial setup of a "DevSecOps" development environment, software application development, and long-term product lifecycle management. 

Role Summary

Execute the established test plan for your assigned embedded product release—ensuring test and build environment readiness and delivering high‑quality release outcomes.

As a key contributor, you’ll drive defect discovery/triage, strengthen processes, and collaborate across engineering to ship reliable releases that meet stringent customer and industry expectations.

Responsibilities

• Own the release/test cycle & its execution: Execute manual and automated test suites; track outcomes and publish comprehensive quality reports and status updates.
• Ensure release integrity: Verify that all release packages and supporting documentation are complete and compliant with defined development and release processes; maintain the release repository (artifacts, documentation, dependencies, credentials, notification lists).
• Build & maintain environments: Create Windows/Linux build server VMs, install toolchains/dev tools, perform health checks, and resolve environment issues to keep testing productive and predictable.
• Analyze builds & triage defects: Investigate failing tests, log clear issues, and partner with development to resolve root causes and prevent recurrence.
• Utilize CI pipelines: Execute established Jenkins pipelines and Python driver/build scripts (e.g., SCons) that accelerate validation and release workflows.
• Continuously improve: Utilizing your knowledge and skills, contribute to process improvements that reduce cycle time, increase coverage, and elevate quality across the org.

• Skilled at hardware setup/assembly and troubleshooting; comfortable with Linux and Windows environments (RTOS exposure such as PikeOS, VxWorks, Integrity is an asset).
• Experience with 3D graphics validation (OpenGL or Vulkan) is beneficial for graphics driver/application testing.
• Proficiency with source control and CI/CD (e.g., Git, Jenkins); able to create and run build/test pipelines and supporting scripts.
• Familiarity with Jira and SharePoint for planning, traceability, and release documentation.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; strong organization and analytical problem‑solving skills.
• Prior exposure to U.S. export control regulations or regulated development environments is an asset.
