Job Description

Senior Software Quality Engineer

Purpose of Position

Setra is seeking a Senior Software Quality Engineer to join our software engineering team and help ensure the reliability, performance, and robustness of our embedded devices. These products operate in critical environments such as data centers, industrial facilities, and building automation systems, where correctness, stability, and diagnosability are essential.

In this role, you will work closely with software, hardware, and product teams to define and execute verification strategies across embedded Linux platforms, environmental and power monitoring firmware, and supporting applications. You will play a key role in reducing field issues, improving test automation, and raising the overall quality bar across the product lifecycle.

Essential Functions

  • Promote and evolve the software verification and validation (V&V) strategy for embedded products, including power meters, environmental monitors and controls, and edge gateways.
  • Design, implement, and maintain manual and automated test coverage for embedded Linux software, firmware, and device‑level features.
  • Develop and execute system‑level, integration, regression, and stress tests, including scenarios that mirror real‑world customer deployments (e.g., fully‑loaded devices, long‑duration uptime, and fault conditions).
  • Collaborate with software and hardware engineers to review requirements, designs, and risks, ensuring testability and quality are built in early.
  • Investigate field and manufacturing issues by reproducing failures, analyzing logs and network traffic, and performing root‑cause analysis.
  • Contribute to test automation frameworks and CI pipelines to improve repeatability, coverage, and release confidence.
  • Validate industrial and building‑automation communications protocols, as well as TCP/IP networks, and device‑to‑cloud interactions (MQTT).
  • Define quality metrics and provide clear, data‑driven assessments of release readiness.

Education & Experience Required

  • Demonstrated experience in software quality, test engineering, or verification roles, with a strong focus on embedded or systems‑level testing; typically 6 years.
  • Hands‑on experience testing embedded Linux systems and/or firmware‑driven devices.
  • Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP) and experience validating device communications over wired and wireless networks.
  • Experience testing industrial or building‑automation protocols (e.g., Modbus, BACnet, or similar).
  • Proficiency with test automation and scripting, such as Python, shell scripting, or similar languages.
  • Experience working with hardware‑integrated software systems, including interaction with sensors, meters, or I/O.
  • Experience testing industrial / device UI’s, particularly with Squish
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, version control systems (Git), and tracking tools like Jira and Zephyr.
  • Ability to analyze logs, packet captures, and system behavior to isolate complex, cross‑disciplinary issues.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work cross‑functionally with software, hardware, product, and manufacturing teams.

Desired Skills

  • Experience testing power meters and environmental controls.
  • Exposure to long‑running reliability testing, soak testing, and performance characterization.
  • Experience validating systems that must meet accuracy, stability, or compliance expectations.
  • Familiarity with embedded build systems, release workflows, or cross‑compiled environments.
  • Background working with products deployed at scale in customer or industrial environments.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
