Location: Barcelona | Type: Full-time
Senior QA Engineer – Devices
Responsibilities
Define and drive the device quality strategy: test approach, coverage goals, release criteria, and clear go/no‐go gates.
Build and maintain automated test suites across the device stack (software components, update packages, and critical user flows), focusing on integration and regression.
Improve CI/CD and release tooling: pipelines, test execution/reporting, reproducible releases, and streamlined validation processes.
Partner closely with engineering teams to improve testability, instrumentation, and diagnostics, including evolving test frameworks/SDKs and internal tools.
Define acceptance criteria and validate hardware/OS drops and device readiness across the lifecycle (including EVT/DVT/PVT/MP), ensuring stable behavior before field deployments.
Feed production learnings back into quality: participate in incident/L3 loops, run targeted exploratory/manual validation when needed, and convert recurring checks into automation.
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Telecommunications Engineering, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
Proven experience as a Senior QA / Test Engineer in devices, embedded systems, or hardware‐adjacent products.
Strong track record building test strategy and automation in fast‐moving environments, improving processes and release discipline.
Comfortable writing code for tests and tooling (e.g., C and/or Python) and collaborating with developers to strengthen test infrastructure.
Strong debugging mindset: able to isolate failures across firmware/app/device boundaries and communicate clearly what's broken, why, and what to do next.
Fluent in English and Spanish, with excellent communication and organizational skills.
Strong execution and problem‐solving skills; not afraid to tackle challenges head‐on.
Takes accountability and consistently owns the outcome throughout the process.
Embraces feedback as an opportunity for growth.
Naturally proactive, always looking for ways to move projects forward.
Comfortable speaking up and proposing bold, creative ideas that add value.
Desired Experience
Experience testing Android‐based devices (AOSP/embedded Linux exposure is a plus) and working with release constraints typical of embedded products.
Familiarity with hardware validation workflows and lab tools (basic instrumentation, fixtures/jigs, EVTs/DVTs/PVTs, acceptance criteria with vendors).
Experience with CI/CD systems and advanced test setups (hardware‐in‐the‐loop, on‐target automation, reliability/soak testing).
Benefits
A hybrid model that works: office 3 days a week and remote flexibility the other 2.
Flexible schedule.
Meal vouchers: monthly support of meal vouchers.
Health & wellness: private health insurance and discounted gym memberships.
Learning & development: English classes and role‐specific training.
Paid time off: 23 days plus local holidays.
A dynamic, fast‐growing environment where each day is unique and every idea counts.
A collaborative mindset surrounded by people who genuinely enjoy building together.
Regular afterwork & teambuilding events to relax, connect, and strengthen team bonds.
