• Experience of having worked in an Agile environment

What will you be doing here?

The main responsibilities in this role would be to test software on our spacecraft hardware, and to test applications developed for ground segment and operations engineers that will be used to communicate with the spacecraft. The role involves being able to conceptualise, write, conduct and document tests from a software perspective. They will be required to develop scripts to be able to deploy known software configurations on to hardware. This individual will interact directly with software and systems engineers and be involved in the development of specifications as part of software teams across the company. They would also either be able to use or be able to gain an understanding of continuous integration and delivery tools (CI/CD) and testing frameworks to be able to automate tests.

Responsibilities will include:

• Writing, conducting and documenting tests on embedded and application software
