Quality Assurance Tester

QA & Test Engineer (Safety-Critical / Embedded Systems)

I’m currently working with a fast-growing deep tech start‑up building advanced safety systems for AI and autonomous technologies.

They’re looking for a QA & Test Engineer with strong experience in embedded and safety‑critical environments to help validate complex hardware‑software systems.

Candidates must be British citizens and either hold SC clearance or be eligible to obtain it.

What you’ll be doing:

• Designing and executing test strategies for safety‑critical embedded software
• Working across Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HIL) and Software‑in‑the‑Loop (SIL) environments
• Testing integrated hardware and software systems
• Building and maintaining automation frameworks and CI/CD pipelines
• Collaborating with software, hardware and AI teams
• Embedded systems / firmware / RTOS testing
• Hands‑on experience with HIL / SIL environments
• Hardware + software integration testing
• Experience with safety‑critical standards (DO‑178C, ISO 26262 or IEC 61508)
• Automation using Python (pytest, gtest or similar)
• CI/CD pipelines (hands‑on, not just usage)

Nice to have:

• ROS, Gazebo or robotics simulation experience

Location: Oxfordshire (3 days on‑site)

This is an opportunity to work on genuinely cutting‑edge systems where safety, reliability and real‑world performance matter.

If you’re interested, or know someone suitable, feel free to message me directly.
