Mô tả công việc

About the role:

The QA Engineer (Firmware / Device) is responsible for validating the firmware and hardware-software integration of Safetrust's readers, sensors, and gateways. This position plays a key role in the QA organization, ensuring devices behave correctly across BLE, Wi-Fi, NFC, secure boot, OTA updates, and the full credential-presentation flow.

This role focuses on hands-on device testing, tooling, and defect triage, and contributes to Safetrust's continued growth by ensuring firmware releases are reliable in real environments before they reach customers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, execute, and maintain comprehensive test plans, test cases, and validation procedures for embedded firmware and connected devices.
• Perform functional, integration, regression, system, interoperability, end-to-end, performance, stress, endurance, and environmental testing across Safetrust's embedded product portfolio.
• Validate firmware functionality across BLE, Wi-Fi, NFC, Ethernet, USB, wired, and other communication interfaces under normal and adverse operating conditions, including edge cases such as low signal strength, interference, and power loss.
• Verify secure boot, OTA firmware updates, factory provisioning, credential management, encryption, and recovery mechanisms.
• Develop automated test scripts, frameworks, and small tooling using Python, Shell, or other scripting languages to improve regression coverage, testing efficiency, and log analysis.
• Design, build, maintain, and continuously improve hardware test labs, fixtures, automation rigs, racks, instrumentation, and validation environments.
• Investigate firmware defects and customer-reported field issues by collecting logs, reproducing issues, analyzing root causes, and partnering with engineering teams to resolve problems.
• Track and document defects with detailed reproduction steps, logs, risk assessments, impact assessments, and recommended corrective actions in the bug-tracking system.
• Participate in design reviews, requirements reviews, and release readiness activities to ensure quality is built into products early.
• Collaborate with Firmware, Embedded Linux, Hardware, AI, Mobile, Cloud, and Product teams throughout the software development lifecycle.
• Develop and maintain regression test suites supporting continuous integration, continuous delivery pipelines, and release sign-off criteria.
• Monitor quality metrics including defect leakage, regression coverage, release readiness, and production quality trends.
• Support manufacturing validation, production testing, and investigation of customer-reported field issues.
• Continuously improve QA methodologies, automation coverage, and testing standards across Safetrust's engineering organization.
