Are you a challenge-loving software automation enthusiast? Would you love an excellent opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology in neuromorphic robotic software? Then you may be a good match to help us in designing and implementing interesting and non-conventional testing solutions in our QA Engineer role.

The Person:

Required:

• Strong programming skills, ideally in Python, to contribute to testing automation and tool development.
• Solid understanding and experience in QA fundamentals, including CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with Agile methodology and iterative development.
• Problem-solving abilities to adapt traditional software QA practices to robotics and non-traditional QA challenges.
• Familiarity with debugging, logging, and analyzing test results in complex systems.

Company:

After 8 years of research, Opteran has pioneered brain biomimicry - the ability to understand real brains and reverse-engineer them. Starting with how insect brains see, avoid collisions, navigate and make decisions, we reproduce these biological systems to create a neuromorphic software product. Providing an alternative to current computer vision and machine learning approaches, this has broken through today's limitations; not only is it highly computationally efficient, but also is highly robust and verifiable, and is edge-only with no data connectivity required. We call it “natural intelligence.”

Benefits:

• 25 days holiday per year (plus 8 UK public holidays)
• Eligible for our employee equity scheme
• Flexible working hours; holiday swaps
• Team socials
• Salary sacrifice and 5% employer contribution to the company pension scheme
• Progressive leave policies
• Cycle to work scheme
