Location: Belfast
Job Description:
Firmware Test Automation Engineer (Embedded Linux | Video & Streaming)
Super flexible working (1 x day in office, 4 x WFH)
ViVA Tech Talent are supporting a key client who are building a brand-new firmware test automation function for a connected hardware platform used in real-world, high-stakes environments.
This role is for someone who enjoys owning the full automation picture — from flashing devices and running unattended daily regressions, to validating video, streaming, and system resilience across a fleet of physical devices.
What you’ll be doing
- Designing and building a scalable firmware automation framework for embedded Linux
- Automating core camera workflows: recording, storage, metadata, upgrades, recovery
- Validating video output (H.264/H.265, MP4) and live streaming (RTSP / WebRTC)
- Running stress, soak, performance, and resilience tests on real hardware
- Building and maintaining hardware-in-the-loop test rigs
- Producing high-signal test results and failure analysis engineers actually trust
What we’re looking for
- Strong experience testing firmware / embedded systems (not just web or UI)
- Confident scripting (Python preferred; Bash/Go welcome)
- Comfortable working close to Linux, hardware, logs, and networks
- Experience with video or streaming validation is a big plus
- Someone who enjoys building things from scratch and making them reliable
Why this role?
- You’ll own and shape a new automation function
- Real hardware, real data, real impact
- High autonomy, strong engineering culture, and room to grow
Equity / share options
️ Generous annual leave allowance
