Position Summary:

The Firmware QA Analyst is a hands-on role where you’ll be in the driver’s seat focused on ensuring the quality of our state-of-the-art traffic operations products. You’ll work closely with the development team and the QA lead to validate releases, advance our testing processes, and our technology always gets the green light for quality and functionality.

On a given day you might examine requirements for upcoming features, exercise changes in a pre-prod environment, perform exploratory testing, or search out how to reproduce a customer-facing issue.

If you have a high interest in learning on the job, multiple years of experience with firmware/software testing practices, are comfortable working with hardware devices, and enjoy working in a collaborative, fast-paced, rapid delivery environment, we’d like to hear from you.

This is a hybrid opportunity with the majority of time spent on-site at our Kitchener, Ontario headquarters, and some flexibility to work from home.

Objectives and Responsibilities:

• Validate functional standards through hands-on manual and automated testing to ensure our products meet our functional and quality standards.
• Develop automated and manual test cases, testing best practices, verification planning and test configurations.
• Enable rapid iteration through build, test, and deployment pipeline.
• Optimize testing workflows by proposing and implementing new test processes that increase bug detection.
• Review requirements and provide meaningful feedback from initial design phase to production.
• Investigate the “where and why” of failures and communicate your findings to cross-functional teams to help resolve the issue.

Ideal Profile:

• Proven track record (2+ years) in firmware or software QA testing, specifically within environments where code meets physical hardware.
• Ability to debug failed test cases and help narrow down where the bug resides (eg: hardware, firmware, software).
• Comfortable navigating Linux environments and writing scripts in Python.
• Familiarity and comfort working with hardware devices.
• Skilled at writing clear, concise test plans and test cases and hands on experience with automated testing tools.
• Experience identifying, recording, documenting and tracking bugs.
• Passionate about quality and tenacity to ensure functionality and quality standards are met.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Curiosity to dig into the “why” and a collaborative approach to cross-team problem-solving.
• Natural drive for continuous improvement and the agility to adapt to a rapid delivery environment.

Bonus points if you bring any of the following:

• Familiarity with Robot framework
• Familiarity with data analytics and data quality concerns
• Experience with load, performance and/or security testing
• Experience with exploratory testing
• Familiarity with JIRA
• Familiarity with Agile development processes
• Hands-on experience with networking equipment
