Senior Embedded Software Test Engineer

As a Senior Embedded Software Test Engineer at Optics11, you own the embedded software system-test capability for our sensing interrogator platforms. You define, automate, execute, and continuously improve Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and box-level integration and regression testing so that software and firmware release candidates are qualified on representative hardware before they move downstream to formal verification, FAT (Factory Acceptance Test), field, or application validation.

Your scope covers the integrated behavior of embedded Linux applications and services, internal and external APIs, hardware interfaces, firmware and FPGA interactions, system control, calibration and configuration, diagnostics, data acquisition, boot and update behavior, recovery mechanisms, and sensor interfaces. You build and maintain automated test frameworks, HIL benches, test harnesses, CI/CD integration, and objective release evidence that make product behavior repeatable, observable, and measurable.

You are part of the Sensing Platform Team and work closely with Embedded Software, FPGA/Firmware, Electronics, Photonics, Architects, Product System Engineering, Product Integration, Verification & Validation, Lifecycle Engineering, application/software teams, and external developmen
