Résumé du poste

Skild AI is seeking a seasoned Test Engineer to own regression testing across software, hardware-in-the-loop systems, and SW/HW interfaces. You will design test plans, write cases for new features, and verify functionality before release.

You will build end-to-end automated tests, replay logged data, and curate scenario suites to detect performance drift after updates. Experience with ROS/ROS 2 and fault injection is required.

Qualifications

• BS or MS in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in software testing, robotics, or test automation.
• 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 and familiarity with ROS/ROS 2.
• Hands-on experience with fault injection, logged-data replay, and rigor in requirements traceability and defect management.

Responsabilités

• Design, develop, and maintain full-stack regression coverage across software components, hardware-in-the-loop systems, and SW/HW interfaces, including happy-path, fault-injection, and recovery testing.
• Review requirements and designs for releases, write test plans and test cases for new features, and execute functional, integration, and on-robot testing before shipping.
• Build automated end-to-end tests, logged-data replay, and scenario suites to catch performance drift across stack updates, selecting appropriate robot simulation tools for each test level.
• Own test case traceability to requirements, define pass/fail criteria, triage failures with engineering teams, and integrate regression testing into CI pipelines.
• Partner with engineering and deployment teams to expand hardware-in-the-loop coverage, reproduce field-reported regressions, and convert them into permanent regression tests.

Description du poste

Skild AI is building general-purpose robotic intelligence through data-driven machine learning. This role owns test case management, regression testing, and new-feature validation across full-stack robotics solutions, including software, simulation, hardware-in-the-loop systems, and SW/HW interfaces to ensure every update is validated before fleet deployment.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain full-stack regression coverage across software components, hardware-in-the-loop systems, and SW/HW interfaces, including happy-path, fault-injection, and recovery testing
• Review requirements and designs for releases, write test plans and test cases for new features, and execute functional, integration, and on-robot testing before shipping
• Build automated end-to-end tests, logged-data replay, and scenario suites to catch performance drift across stack updates, selecting appropriate robot simulation tools for each test level
• Own test case traceability to requirements, define pass/fail criteria, triage failures with engineering teams, and integrate regression testing into CI pipelines
• Partner with engineering and deployment teams to expand hardware-in-the-loop coverage, reproduce field-reported regressions, and convert them into permanent regression tests

What You Need

• BS or MS in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or related field
• 5+ years of experience in software testing, robotics, or test automation
• 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 and familiarity with ROS/ROS 2
• Hands-on experience with fault injection, logged-data replay, and rigor in requirements traceability and defect management

Nice to Have

• Senior-level experience in software testing or robotics
• Experience testing autonomous mobile robots, manipulators, or fleet-deployed robotic systems
• Hands-on experience with simulators such as Gazebo, Isaac Sim, or MuJoCo, and with hardware-in-the-loop rigs
• Experience with test management tools (TestRail, Qase, Testomat.io) and CI systems, particularly GitHub Actions
• Programming experience in Go, C++, or TypeScript/JavaScript, and experience triaging field issues from logs, bag files, or telemetry
