Senior Embedded Instrument Control SW Tester

m/w/d, Zug

Do you bring several years of experience in agile testing environments, feel confident working with Linux and test automation, and have ideally gained experience in medical technology? Do you want not only to verify complex system interactions but actively improve them in a highly regulated environment?

Then this project offers the perfect opportunity to further develop your expertise in medical device development while contributing to an international team.

Start Date: May, June, July 2026
Your tasks:

  • Nurturing System Integrity: You will act as a guardian of our instrument’s quality, ensuring that the interplay between embedded software and hardware is seamless, robust, and reliable for our customers.
  • Creative Test Evolution: Instead of just following a script, you will design and develop thoughtful test scenarios that explore the system's resilience, helping us identify and resolve potential weaknesses long before they reach the field.
  • Transforming Data into Insight: You will listen to what the instruments are telling us by analyzing logs and results, turning raw data into meaningful improvements that enhance our diagnostic capabilities and long-term supportability.
  • Collaborative Problem-Solving: You will own the journey of an issue from discovery to resolution, working closely with cross-functional teams to verify that our solutions are as elegant as they are effective.
  • Bridge-Building across R&D: You will serve as a key technical partner between different development teams and production, using your deep system knowledge to provide clarity and support during complex troubleshooting phases.
  • Empowered Ownership of Quality: You will take pride in delivering validated, high-  quality work packages, ensuring a smooth and confident transition of designs to our global partners in Service and Operations.

  • A degree (BSc/MSc) in Electrical, Mechanical, or Software Engineering 
  • Min. 5-7+ years of experience in testing in agile environments, specifically where software meets hardware

  • A curious investigator who enjoys learning how things work under the hood. You communicate with empathy and clarity, ensuring that technical findings lead to collaborative fixes 
  • Fluency in English is required; German is a great advantage for local collaborationed
