Systems Test Engineer, End-to-End Validation

About the Role

As a Systems Test Engineer, End-to-End Validation, you will design and execute end-to-end testing for complex device experiences spanning hardware, software, connectivity, cloud services, and accessories. You’ll translate product behavior and real-world use cases into structured, reproducible test procedures and build test environments that allow failures to be reliably reproduced and diagnosed.

You’ll also identify opportunities to automate repetitive or high-value scenarios, working with engineers to turn complex manual workflows into scalable validation systems. Because this is a new category of devices, you’ll have the opportunity to build the end-to-end validation foundation early—shaping test coverage, environments, and workflows from prototype through launch.

We’re looking for someone who combines strong systems thinking, hands-on testing skills, technical curiosity, and a rigorous approach to reproducing and diagnosing failures across multiple components.

In this role, you will:

• Design end-to-end test coverage: Develop structured test plans and reproducible procedures for user journeys, realistic usage patterns, edge cases, degraded conditions, and failure scenarios across devices, services, connectivity, and accessories.

• Build and operate complex test environments: Maintain setups involving devices, servers, networks, accounts, peripherals, accessories, and controlled environmental conditions; prepare devices and environments for release validation, execute test campaigns, track results, and communicate risks and blocking issues.

• Reproduce failures and diagnose systems: Reproduce complex failures, isolate contributing components, collect logs and telemetry, and provide engineers with clear reproduction steps and supporting evidence.

• Automate high-value scenarios: Identify repeatable manual workflows that benefit from automation and develop or partner on tooling for device control, setup, measurement, data collection, and test execution.

• Strengthen regression coverage: Convert field issues, production failures, and previously discovered bugs into repeatable regression tests and maintain coverage across product releases.

• Partner across teams: Work with embedded, systems, cloud, hardware, QA, and product teams to understand system behavior, improve testability, and close gaps in validation coverage.

Minimum Qualifications

• Experience with system-level, integration, end-to-end, or validation testing for complex hardware-software products.

• Skill in translating loosely defined product behavior into clear, repeatable, and measurable test procedures.

• Experience testing systems that span devices, networks, backend services, mobile applications, or connected accessories.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Enjoy hands-on debugging and can methodically isolate failures across hardware, firmware, software, connectivity, and cloud services.

• Are comfortable working with logs, diagnostics, command-line tools, network tools, and device configuration utilities.

• Have experience automating tests or test setups using Python or similar scripting tools, while recognizing when manual testing provides better coverage.

• Understand how to create reliable test environments with controlled setup, configuration, preconditions, expected results, and recovery procedures.

• Are comfortable working across engineering disciplines and communicating complex failures with clear evidence and reproducible steps.
