Software Test Engineer

Role : Software Test Engineer

Location : San Jose CA (On-site)

Exp : 5 to 9 Years

The Opportunity : Staff Software Test Engineer

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 simulators 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 isnt 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) C# Expertise :

Minimum 5 years of hands-on development experience in C# .

You must be comfortable writing complex object-oriented code not just editing scripts.

Python Experience :

Minimum 2 years of scripting experience (used for glue code and automation support).

Automation Tools :

Proven experience with Squish (preferred) WinAppDriver or similar GUI automation tools.

Flexibility :

Willingness to perform manual testing when necessary to ensure product quality.

Preferred Qualifications

Medical Device Background : Solid understanding of FDA QSR (21 CFR Part 820) ISO 13485 and the V&V (Verification & Validation) process.

Experience testing Firmware or embedded systems via simulation.

Experience with JAMA for requirements management.

Background in Robotics or complex electromechanical systems.
