Setup and manage test scenarios in simulation environments (e.g. Foxglove, Gazebo, ROS simulators) and on physical robot hardware
Identify and automate test cases using appropriate frameworks and scripting tools
Document test results and provide detailed bug reports
Contribute to test documentation, QA processes, and best practices
Who You Are
5+ years of experience in software quality assurance with experience in robotics
