Your Role
As a Test Automation Engineer, you will play a central role in ensuring the quality and reliability of a complex, safety-critical system. This is a hands-on position where you will take ownership of building a complete automated testing ecosystem, from defining strategy and selecting tools to implementing frameworks and writing test code.
You will work across the full stack, covering frontend, backend, and system-level validation. Your work will include automated UI testing, backend and API verification, and system-level testing supported by simulations and realistic environments. A key part of the role is shaping how testing is done, defining what to test, how to test it, and how to ensure quality end-to-end across the product.
You will collaborate closely with developers and system engineers to build testable, scalable solutions, while integrating continuous testing into CI/CD pipelines. Beyond implementation, you will also help identify gaps in test coverage, improve processes, and contribute to a strong quality culture within the team.
What You Bring
We believe you have solid experience working with test automation in production environments and are comfortable writing code as part of your daily work, whether in TypeScript, C#, Python, or a similar language. You have hands-on experience with modern frontend testing tools such as Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium, as well as experience testing backend services and APIs.
You understand how automated testing fits into CI/CD workflows and are familiar with tools such as GitHub Actions or similar platforms. Just as importantly, you have the ability to think strategically about testing in complex, distributed systems and enjoy taking ownership of quality from a holistic perspective.
Experience with safety-critical or industrial systems is a plus, as is familiarity with simulators, virtual devices, or hardware-in-the-loop testing. Knowledge of performance or load testing and a broader full-stack understanding will also be valuable in this role.
Our Tech Stack
You will be working in an environment that includes TypeScript and Vue.js on the frontend, and C#/.NET with ASP.NET on the backend. Communication is handled through technologies such as gRPC and OPC-UA, and testing is primarily done using Playwright alongside internal tools. Our development practices are built around CI/CD pipelines, automated workflows, and DevOps principles.
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to build the testing foundation for software that has a direct impact on safety. You will have the chance to take real ownership and shape how automated testing is approached across the team, influencing tools, frameworks, and overall architecture.
You will be part of a highly dedicated engineering team working on a mission-critical product, where quality truly matters. Together, we are building what we aim to be the world’s most trusted Safety Management System.
