Robotics QA Engineer — Full-Stack, HIL & Simulation

skildai-careers; San Mateo; On-site; PHP 600,000 - 800,000; Full time

Job summary

Skild AI in the Philippines is seeking a Robotics Quality Assurance Engineer to own test case management, new-feature testing, and regression testing across our full-stack robotics solutions.

You will collaborate with Engineering to build and maintain automated regression across software modules, simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and SW/HW interfaces, ensuring every feature meets requirements before customers.

Qualifications

• BS or MS in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in software testing, robotics, or test automation; senior-level experience preferred.
• Strong programming skills in Python and Linux shell scripting, with hands-on experience building automated test frameworks and CI pipelines.
• Strong experience with robot simulation.
• Familiarity with ROS/ROS 2, and with testing web applications, IoT devices, or mobile applications.
• Hands-on experience with fault injection and logged-data replay.
• Rigor in requirements traceability and defect management.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain full-stack regression coverage across software components, HIL, and SW/HW interfaces, including happy-path, fault-injection, and recovery testing.
• Review requirements and designs for each release, write test plans and test cases for new features, and execute functional, integration, and on-robot testing before they ship, then promote validated tests into the regression suite.
• Build automated end-to-end tests, plus logged-data replay and scenario suites that catch performance drift across stack updates before release.
• Choose and apply the right type of robot simulation for each level of test automation, balancing speed, fidelity, and accuracy.
• Own test cases and their traceability to requirements, define pass/fail criteria, and triage failures with engineering teams.
• Integrate regression into CI so every release is validated at both the software and full-robot level ahead of fleet rollout.
• Partner with engineering teams to expand HIL coverage.
• Work with deployment teams to reproduce field-reported regressions and turn them into permanent regression tests.
