Location: Sydney
Workplace: Onsite
Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: QA, Test & Release Engineering

Key Responsibilities

  • •Design and build a production utility suite for manufacturing test, including GUI-based consoles for PCBA bring-up/bottle bring-up and vehicle-level Factory Acceptance Test and system check-out.
  • •Architect the shared test framework substrate (test runners, instrumentation drivers, data logging, traceability hooks, error-code library, and configuration management).
  • •Standardize and deploy a NixOS-based, declarative, reproducible toolchain and drive consolidation from mixed development environments to a config-managed target.
  • •Implement CI/CD for test code (pipelines, version control, review discipline) so test software ships through pipelines rather than external media.
  • •Integrate test results with factory systems (MES, Oracle ERP, and relevant PLM such as Teamcenter) and provide floor support by debugging unexpected GUI/test failures.
