Senior Technical Recruiter | Head of Talent (Embedded) @ CRFS
Think like a user. Break things before customers can.
We’re looking for a System Test Engineer who loves getting hands‑on with real hardware — not just writing test scripts. You’ll validate complex systems that blend software, firmware, and RF hardware, making sure they perform flawlessly in the wild.
If you’ve been in technical support, lab test, or system integration and want to move deeper into engineering — this is your step up.
What You’ll Be Doing
 * Put complete systems through their paces — from GUI apps to embedded firmware.
 * Build and maintain test rigs combining in‑house hardware and third‑party equipment.
 * Reproduce and document bugs with precision, feeding back into engineering.
 * Run regression and performance tests across multiple product variants.
 * Keep the system test lab running smoothly and aligned with quality standards.
What You’ll Bring
 * A technical degree or equivalent hands‑on experience.
 * Comfort with Linux and command‑line tools.
 * Detail‑driven, analytical mindset — you love finding the edge cases.
 * Clear communicator who can explain complex behaviour simply.
 * Curiosity about how hardware, firmware, and software interact.
 * Python scripting for automation or data parsing.
 * Exposure to RF, networking, or spectrum analysis tools (training available).
 * Experience with bug tracking or test management tools.
You’ll be part of a small, skilled engineering team where your ideas are heard, your work ships fast, and your testing directly shapes real‑world technology.
If you’re the kind of person who enjoys pulling systems apart to see what fails first — and why — we’d love to hear from you.
