About The Role

As a Software Test Engineer, your primary focus will be on test execution and test automation. You will design, implement, and evolve testing strategies that ensure product quality from early development to release. You will work closely with development teams to improve testability, identify risks early, and build confidence in every release through effective automation and integration testing. You will act as a quality advocate across teams, supporting engineers with best practices, tools, and frameworks while helping shift testing efforts toward scalable, automated solutions.

Possible location for this position is Uppsala, Sweden

What You'll Do

• Perform and contribute to release testing, verifying end‑to‑end functionality and validating that releases meet agreed‑upon quality criteria.
