Quality Assurance & Validation Tester
Test real user scenarios and validate system behaviour across embedded, cloud and virtual environments to ensure reliable, robust and user‑focused software.
About the role
We are looking for a quality assurance & validation tester to join our virtualization test team. In this role, you act as an internal customer and evaluate how the system behaves in real use cases across embedded, cloud‑based and virtualized environments. Your focus is on performance, robustness and user‑centred behaviour — understanding what works, what doesn’t, and why.
You will validate practical workflows such as logging into portals, accessing cloud features and running embedded functionality. By challenging the system through exploratory and non‑functional testing, you uncover unexpected behaviour and provide clear go/no‑go decisions for each delivery.
What you will do
You will work hands‑on with behaviour‑driven testing, validating user stories, capabilities and complete user flows. You explore how the system responds under different conditions, verify stability when new features are introduced and identify issues that appear outside predictable scenarios.
In addition, you will:
You assess each delivery and give a clear go/no‑go decision grounded in actual test results
Validate reproducibility in virtualized environments
Compare performance between virtualization and target hardware
Run integration scenarios with multiple virtual components
Apply fault‑injection techniques to expose weaknesses
Check timing, synchronization and behaviour under varying load
Assess scalability in larger virtual setups
Investigate undocumented or unexpected system responses
Who you are
You have a background in software testing and a natural curiosity for how systems behave in practice. You look beyond written requirements and focus on what users actually need. You enjoy isolating problems, identifying root causes and helping the team deliver stable, reliable functionality.
Required skills & experience
Solid background in software testing
Ability to design and execute test cases
Familiarity with exploratory testing methods
Understanding of performance‑focused and other non‑functional testing
Capability to test embedded or hardware‑related functionality
Ability to validate user journeys and act as an internal customer
Confidence in providing clear go/no‑go decisions
It's a plus if you have
Knowledge of QEMU or similar virtualized environments
Exposure to hardware‑in‑the‑loop test setups
Familiarity with safety‑related test documentation
Experience validating cloud‑based functionality
Why join?
In this role, you work close to the product and play a key part in ensuring that every delivery is reliable and user‑ready. You help developers understand real system behaviour, uncover weak spots and contribute to a more stable and predictable platform. You’ll join a modern engineering environment where clarity, curiosity and hands‑on problem‑solving are central.
