Embedded Software Engineer

Core Responsibilities:

• Understand Linux‑based HMI and CCB systems requirements, existing test protocols and accurately translate manual test protocols into automated test script(s).
• Convert and existing manual test protocols into automated test cases using the in‑house Hydra Automation Framework. (Hydra is Steris in-house Python based custom frameworks/Automation SW test tool).
• Set up and configure test environments involving Arduino boards, HMIs, simulators, and peripheral hardware interfaces in accordance with work instructions.
• Develop and execute automated test scripts leveraging Hydra Tool using Its interfaces such as Serial interfaces, CAN interfaces, Touch interfaces, Barcode scanners, Printer interfaces, Video capture cards etc.
• Ensure Test execution of automated test cases on embedded HMI devices, including seamless integration with hardware interfaces and test simulators.
• Log identified defects using bug‑tracking tools(Jira).
• Perform detailed debugging and root‑cause analysis for failed test cases and automation scripts.

Software Testing & Technical Skills :

• Strong ability to understand manual test procedures and convert them into fully automated workflows.
• Knowledge of test design, automation strategies, and test coverage principles.
• Experience developing and executing test protocols for functional testing of embedded devices.
• Proficiency with Python‑based automation frameworks (PyTest, or custom Python‑based frameworks).
• Usage experience with Arduino boards, embedded simulators, and peripheral interfaces.
• Good understanding of Linux environments and HMI‑based systems.
• Good Understanding of communication protocols ( CAN,SPI,I2C and RS232 etc) and device interaction.
• Knowledge of test coverage, debugging, and basic troubleshooting hardware/software test issues.
• (Preferred) Experience in the medical device domain or other regulated embedded systems environments.
