Help build the software counterpart to in-house designed testing hardware to help test device enablement (graphics, hotplug, bluetooth, etc). Write functional and performance tests to support hardware enablement and to protect from regressions. Participate in meetings involving international travel 2-3 times per year.

Required skills and experience

Knowledge of Python programming language. Quality oriented, pragmatic approach to software design and implementation. Interest in test automation methodologies. Previous experience working with Ubuntu or other Linux distributions. Ability to be productive in a globally distributed team.

Desired skills and experience
