Job Description :
Role : Software Test Engineer
Location : San Jose CA (On-site)
Exp : 5 to 9 Years
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 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.
