QA & Test Engineer (Safety-Critical / Embedded Systems)
I'm currently working with a fast-growing deep tech start-up building advanced safety systems for AI and autonomous technologies.
They're looking for a QA & Test Engineer with strong experience in embedded and safety-critical environments to help validate complex hardware-software systems.
Please note:
Candidates must be British citizens and either hold SC clearance or be eligible to obtain it.
What you'll be doing:
* Designing and executing test strategies for safety-critical embedded software
* Working across Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) environments
* Testing integrated hardware and software systems
* Building and maintaining automation frameworks and CI/CD pipelines
* Collaborating with software, hardware and AI teams
Must-have experience:
* Embedded systems / firmware / RTOS testing
* Hands-on experience with HIL / SIL environments
* Hardware + software integration testing
* Experience with safety-critical standards (DO-178C, ISO 26262 or IEC 61508)
* Automation using Python (pytest, gtest or similar)
* CI/CD pipelines (hands-on, not just usage)
Nice to have:
- ROS, Gazebo or robotics simulation experience
Location: Oxfordshire (3 days on-site)
Full-time, permanent
This is an opportunity to work on genuinely cutting-edge systems where safety, reliability and real-world performance matter.
