About the Role

The Digital Technologies Business Unit (DTBU) at Medtronic is implementing cutting-edge AI technology, computer vision, and augmented reality in the operating room (OR) to augment surgical coaching and performance. As a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our software development lifecycle by designing and building automated test solutions that ensure the reliability, safety, and performance of our embedded and connected hardware platforms used in the operating room. This role focuses on testing device software, firmware integrations, and hardware-software interaction.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain robust automated test frameworks and tools for device software, focusing on scalable, reusable solutions.
Collaborate with software engineers to define test scenarios, testable architectures, and drive quality through code.
Develop, implement and execute advanced test automation strategies for embedded, edge, and device-integrated systems (Android AOSP, Linux-based edge devices, IoT gateways), including validation of device drivers, connectivity modules, and firmware updates.
Analyze requirements and develop comprehensive test plans and protocols for a range of technologies, including service APIs (REST, IPC), WebUI, and over-the-air updates.
Contribute to continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines with automated quality gates.
Generate and maintain technical documentation, standards, and best practices for test, automation and quality engineering.
Collaborate with hardware, firmware, and systems engineers to validate device performance, connectivity, and stability under real-world operating conditions.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent international degree).
Minimum 3 years of relevant experience in software automation and test development, or advanced degree with 2+ years relevant experience.
Strong proficiency in software development for test automation (Python, Java, or equivalent).
Hands-on experience with manual test management tools and test automation frameworks (Selenium, Appium, Espresso, etc.).
Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
Experience with device operating systems (Android, Linux).
Experience with service-oriented architecture (SoA), APIs (REST, IPC).
Hands-on experience testing embedded or connected hardware devices, preferably involving edge computing or IoT systems.
Strong understanding of hardware-software interaction, debugging logs, and analysing system-level behaviour.
Familiarity with firmware validation, board bring-up testing, or similar.
Experience with web-based interfaces, Internet-connected devices, OTA updates.
Highly technical, hands-on, and passionate about product quality.
Demonstrated ability to design and implement automated solutions, not just execute manual tests.
Self-starter, autonomous, and able to lead initiatives independently.
Experience with embedded device software development, hardware-in-the-loop testing, device connectivity (USB, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth), and video streaming or imaging devices.
Familiarity with medical device standards (IEC 62304) and safety-critical testing.
