Job Description Test Automation Engineer Sydney Up to $110,000 super tl;dr we need someone to aggressively try to break our products so that our customers can't. “My client are an Australian company that have pioneered aerial navigation and, just six years into their journey, they’re already successful and profitable – but still small enough to make big decisions about where they want to take things next.” That’s where you come in. You’ll be the first Product Test Engineer in the team. What you’ll be doing This is a chance for you to shape the direction of test and automation across hardware, software and firmware. So far, everything’s set up to make engineering easy – there are close links with manufacturing, smart systems, quick purchase approvals. And you won’t have someone upstairs with an MBA telling you to do it faster or cheaper. That means there’s already plenty of test coverage built into the CI/CD pipelines and some automation. You’ll take it to the next level. For them, it’s not about time to market – it’s about being the best in the market. You won’t find any of that in a big corporate environment. What you’ll need You’ve probably worked on the production side of test in a high-volume manufacturing environment. You’ve built test jigs/instrumentation and test-program/roadmap for hardware and firmware-based products and found ways to automate as much of that as possible. If you’ve built HIL (Hardware in the Loop) test into CI/CD or accelerated life testing, even better. But it’s not essential. One more thing – you’ll need to be comfortable working in a loosely structured environment. You’ll have a lot of freedom to work your way – but where there’s autonomy, there’s also ambiguity. If that’s you, you can look forward to working alongside some pretty smart people who genuinely enjoy what they do. They take pride in their work. They work hard (for eight hours a day). They have fun. And there’s a good work-life balance. On top of the salary, there’s a generous annual bonus scheme.
