• Collaborate with algorithm developers, QA engineers, and hardware teams to validate positioning accuracy and system stability.
• Document test strategies, results, and infrastructure configurations.
• Support continuous improvement of testing frameworks and DevOps practices.

Testing Scope

• Manual Testing: GNSS signal edge cases, hardware‑in‑the‑loop scenarios, real‑world positioning validation.
• Automated Testing: Python‑based test suites for algorithm correctness, regression, and integration.
• Infrastructure Testing: Kubernetes deployments, AWS configurations, service availability.
• Performance Monitoring: Real‑time metrics, alerting, and log analysis for positioning services.
