You will design and implement automated software tests and the ecosystems in which they run. As a critical member of the robotics team, you will have an important role in defining the quality standards of our software while accelerating its development.

Responsibilities

• Define, implement, and maintain comprehensive regression tests for Skild AI’s software and products.
• Design and organize test plans according to priority, impact, risk, and feasibility.
• Debug and troubleshoot failures in complex scenarios while testing and/or deployment at customer sites.
• Maintain robots and ensure they are deployment ready.
• Recreate corner cases from production logs into repeatable tests.
• Collaborate closely with robotic software developers and machine learning engineers and provide feedback on what needs to be improved to produce and sustain a top-quality product that meets customer expectations.

Preferred Qualifications

• BS, MS or higher degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Proficiency developing in low-level systems languages (C, C++, Rust, Go) and Python.
• Experience with complex software systems working in real-time with embedded systems.
• Experience with Test Management and Requirements software.
• Experience with ROS/ROS2 or other robotics middleware platforms.
• Previous work experience as a Test Engineer.
• Prior experience developing and deploying software on real robots.
• Deep understanding and practical experience with software engineering principles, including algorithms, data structures, and system design.
• Familiarity with machine learning integration and deployment in robotic systems.
