Zusammenfassung

Viewpointsystem in Vienna, Austria, is seeking a hands-on software tester to join a cross-disciplinary hardware-software team building smart glasses. You will be embedded with developers, running rapid feedback loops to ensure quality before production, and actively shaping test strategies as products evolve.

The role emphasizes practical testing across the development cycle, with a focus on automation and collaboration with firmware and software engineers.

Qualifikationen

• 3+ years of software testing experience or ISTQB certification
• Knowledge of testing principles and risk-based testing
• Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks and Python scripting
• Nice to have firmware/embedded software testing exposure

Aufgaben

• Test software throughout the development cycle and feed findings directly back to developers
• Define test plans and test cases that reflect real product requirements and execute them
• Work in tight feedback loops with the software team, embedding testing early
• Design and maintain automated test suites (unit, integration, regression) alongside manual/exploratory testing
• Track defects, report clearly, and stay on it until issues are properly resolved
• Sign off only when it's ready - your approval moves a release forward

Jobbeschreibung

Catch it before it ships. Fix it before it matters.

We build award-winning smart glasses in Vienna - hardware, firmware, software, all under one roof. Before any product reaches assembly or production, it has to pass through you. You're embedded in the development process - working side by side with software and hardware engineers, running feedback loop after feedback loop until everything works the way it should.

This isn't end-of-line checking. It's hands-on, technical, and right in the middle of the action.

Tasks

What You'll Be Doing

• Test software throughout the development cycle and feed findings directly back to developers
• Define test plans and test cases that reflect real product requirements - and get your hands dirty executing them
• Work in tight feedback loops with the software team, embedding testing early rather than at the end
• Design and maintain automated test suites (unit, integration, regression) alongside manual/exploratory testing
• Track defects, report clearly, and stay on it until issues are properly resolved
• Sign off only when it's ready - your approval is what moves a release forward

Requirements

What You Bring to the Team

• 3+ years of relevant software testing experience - or equivalent certification (e.g. ISTQB)
• Solid understanding of testing principles and methodologies (test strategy, coverage, risk-based testing)
• Basic knowledge of mechanics and electronics
• Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks (e.g. pytest, Selenium, Cypress, or similar)
• Solid scripting/programming skills, preferably Python, to write and maintain test scripts and tooling
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and integrating automated tests into build processes
• You can read technical requirements and translate them into meaningful test scenarios
• Nice to have: prior exposure to firmware or embedded software testing (e.g. Raspberry Pi, Arduino) and familiarity with digital interfaces/protocols (I2C, SPI, USB)

Benefits

What's extra?

• Salary: €3.500 – €4.800 gross/month depending on experience
• Yearly public transport card (Vienna)
• Workation within the EEA
• Dog-friendly offices
• "Inspire Days" – time to learn and recharge
• A front-row seat to how a deep-tech hardware product gets built - from PCB to shipped device
• Small, international team where your impact is visible every day
