TEST ENGINEER - ANTWERP (BELGIUM) - PERMANENT POSITION
Is your CV ready If so, and you are confident this is the role for you, make sure to apply asap.
We are seeking a Test Engineer to support the validation and verification of complex electronic and embedded systems. This role sits at the intersection of software, hardware, and systems engineering, ensuring that electronic products, firmware, and integrated systems meet functional, performance, and reliability requirements before release.
You will be responsible for defining, developing, and executing both automated and manual test scenarios across hardware and software interfaces. A key part of the role involves building robust Python-based test automation frameworks to validate embedded devices, electronic subsystems, and end-to-end system behaviour.
You will work closely with electronics engineers, firmware developers, and product teams to translate technical requirements into structured, repeatable test coverage.
Key Responsibilities:
* Define, design, and maintain detailed test scenarios and test cases based on system, hardware, and firmware requirements
* Develop Python-based automated test frameworks and scripts for validating electronic and embedded systems
* Execute functional, integration, regression, and system-level testing across hardware/software interfaces
* Interface with electronic test equipment (e.g. oscilloscopes, logic analysers, signal generators, power supplies where applicable)
* Identify, document, and track defects in hardware, firmware, and software components through resolution
* Collaborate with electronics engineers, embedded software developers, and product teams to ensure complete test coverage
* Integrate automated tests into CI/CD or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments where applicable
* Analyse test data and provide clear reporting on product quality, failures, and trends
* Support continuous improvement of test processes, automation frameworks, and lab/test infrastructure
Required Skills & Experience:
* Proven experience in software or system testing, ideally with hardware/electronics exposure
* Strong Python programming skills for test automation (e.g. PyTest, Robot Framework, or similar)
* Ability to define structured test scenarios from complex system and hardware requirements
* Experience testing embedded systems, xphnsxz electronic devices, or hardware-software integrated products
* Understanding of communication protocols (e.g. UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, Ethernet, or similar)
* Familiarity with version control systems (e.g. Git)
* Experience working in lab or hardware testing environments
* Strong analytical and debugging skills across software and hardware interactions
* Good communication skills and ability to work in cross-functional engineering teams
The Offer:
* A permanent, full-time employment contract
* A salary & benefits package commensurate with experience
