Job Description

Hiring: Firmware QA Engineer (Embedded Test Engineer)

📍 Westlake Village, CA (Onsite)

💰 $80K – $110K Base

We’re working with an early-stage, high-growth company building IoT-enabled cold chain technology for healthcare and pharma. Their platform ensures sensitive products stay safe, compliant, and fully traceable — and they’re scaling fast.

They’re looking for a hands-on Firmware QA Engineer who enjoys working directly with hardware — not just automation.

🔧 What You’ll Be Doing

  • Test firmware directly on devices (power, sensors, connectivity, fault recovery)
  • Run manual regression + ship testing before deployment
  • Reproduce issues, capture logs, and help isolate root causes
  • Validate GPS performance (accuracy, signal loss/recovery, edge cases)
  • Partner closely with firmware, hardware, and backend teams
  • Support release readiness with clear pass/fail reporting

🧠 What They’re Looking For

  • Experience testing embedded systems / firmware on hardware
  • Strong debugging skills (logs, Linux commands, basic tools)
  • Comfortable in a lab, hands-on environment
  • Detail-oriented with strong QA discipline
  • Ability to write clear bug reports + communicate cross-functionally

➕ Nice to Have

  • OTA / firmware update validation
  • GPS testing experience
  • Light scripting (Python, Bash)
  • Background in regulated industries (healthcare, aerospace, etc.)
