The posting

Our company is developing cutting-edge embedded systems for advanced R&D products, providing unique opportunities to work on next-generation firmware and hardware integration. The focus of this role is to ensure the quality and reliability of embedded software running on microcontroller-based systems and single-board computers. As an Embedded Software QA Engineer, you will analyze project requirements, design and maintain test plans, execute functional and integration tests, and document results. You will work closely with software and hardware teams to reproduce, investigate, and report issues, supporting the delivery of high-quality embedded products.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

  • Analyze project requirements related to the product, firmware functionality, and test benches
  • Design, develop, and maintain test documentation to ensure comprehensive functional coverage
  • Execute test scenarios based on defined test plans, clearly reporting testing results and progress
  • Identify, investigate, and document defects, including reproduction steps and detailed issue reporting
  • Prepare test reports and actively participate in team meetings
  • Contribute to the development and validation of advanced R&D products
  • Format into sections and lists to improve readability
  • Build and maintain verification strategy across firmware, embedded software, and hardware integration
  • Establish traceability from requirements to tests, defects, and release criteria
  • Support ASPICE-aligned engineering process and evidence collection
  • Run static analysis / compliance checks and coordinate MISRA-related verification
  • Define regression campaigns for embedded builds, interfaces, and system behaviors
  • Produce test reports suitable for internal quality review and customer confidence

Technical Qualifications Required

  • Technical education in Electronics, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • 3+ years of experience in QA, including at least 1 year in embedded systems
  • Experience testing microcontroller-based systems (e.g., STM32) and single-board computers (e.g., Raspberry Pi)
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for software/firmware testing
  • Solid understanding of test design techniques, test levels, and test types
  • Familiarity with embedded communication protocols such as UART, SPI, and I2C
  • Experience debugging firmware flashing processes and hardware interfaces
  • Ability to reproduce system issues by replicating hardware/software interactions
  • Strong embedded test methodology
  • Excellent requirements analysis and traceability
  • Understanding of verification levels: unit, integration, system, hardware-software integration
  • Familiarity with ASPICE / SPICE
  • Ability to assess compliance to coding standards and process rules
  • Familiarity with MISRA checking workflows, static analysis, and code review support
  • Strong CI/CD mindset for firmware and embedded software
  • Ability to build automated regression environments
  • Good defect triage discipline and root-cause collaboration
  • Understanding of communication protocols, flashing, logs, interfaces, and reproducibility

Skills & Abilities Required

  • Strong analytical skills and attention to detail in embedded testing environments
  • Effective verbal and written communication skills for cross-functional collaboration
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team, using tools like Jira and Confluence
  • Patience and clarity in troubleshooting complex issues
  • Experience with test automation in Python, basic shell scripting, or C++ is a plus
  • Familiarity with debugging tools (e.g., JTAG, SWD) and register-level analysis is a plus
  • Competence in using measurement equipment such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, antenna analyzers, or spectrum analyzers is a plus
  • Basic understanding of electronics and ability to interpret schematics is advantageous

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
