Lead Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to architect, bootstrap, and scale robotics software testing organization. Define our overall test strategy, frameworks, and leveraging AI tools and AWS cloud CI/CD pipelines to accelerate automation.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Strategy & Leadership:
  Assess complex requirements to design end-to-end test strategies (HIL, SIL, and simulation) and define quality gates.
• Hands-On Testing:
  Design, build, and debug robust test frameworks from scratch; root-cause complex failures across software, hardware, and physical sensors.
• AI-Driven Automation:
  Leverage modern AI coding tools and LLMs to rapidly bootstrap test frameworks and automate boilerplate testing with minimal overhead.
• AWS CI/CD Pipelines:
  Setup and maintain automated CI/CD pipelines utilizing AWS developer tools (e.g., Code Pipeline, Code Build, ECS) to scale simulation and testing.

Key

Qualifications:

• Robotics SW Testing:
  Hands-on QA experience with physical Robotics platforms (ROS/ROS2, Python, Linux, and simulation tools).
• Framework Architecture:
  Proven track record of designing test frameworks from scratch for hardware-constrained systems.
• AI Tool Fluency:
  Experience using modern AI assistants (e.g. Cursor) to bootstrap productivity.
