About the role

  • Develop and maintain Python-based test automation and procedures in our RAVEN framework, including libraries, integrations and utilities.
  • Support AIT engineers and production operators when tests fail or stations misbehave, using logs, measurements and systematic debugging to find root causes.
  • Design and improve test suites and workflows to reduce flakiness, improve reporting and increase coverage across subsystems and integrations.
  • Automate and control lab instruments and test equipment (e.g. via SCPI/VISA or similar), and work hands-on with typical lab hardware (oscilloscopes, PSUs, DMMs, electronic loads).
  • Contribute to CI and automation pipelines so tests run automatically (e.g. on push/PR) and results are traceable.
  • Write and maintain clear documentation: READMEs, release notes, test specifications, troubleshooting guides and operator-facing instructions.
  • Collaborate closely with other Smart Manufacturing engineers, AIT engineers and production operators to design operator-in-the-loop tests and improve station usability.
  • Participate in code reviews, share best practices, and help raise the overall quality and reliability of our test automation stack.

Requirements

  • 4–7 years of experience in software engineering, test automation or similar, with a strong focus on Python.
  • Proven ability to write production-quality Python code (object-oriented design, packaging, releases, linting/formatting, code reviews).
  • Daily experience with git and collaborative workflows (branches, merges, pull requests, reviews).
  • Solid understanding of test automation fundamentals: structuring test suites, debugging failures and reporting results.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across software, instruments and environments, using logs and systematic diagnosis.
  • Experience supporting users or operators on test stations or similar setups, and a strong sense of ownership for what you deliver.
  • Comfortable using Linux as a primary development environment (shell, tools, environments).
  • Exposure to testing with real hardware (hardware-in-the-loop or similar) and working with lab instruments (oscilloscopes, PSUs, DMMs, loads, etc.).
  • Good communication skills and willingness to work closely with operators and engineers onsite in Espoo.
  • Nice to haves:
  • Experience with Robot Framework for developing and maintaining test procedures and libraries.
  • Experience with lab instrument automation (SCPI/VISA/TCP/USB) and end-to-end production or manufacturing test automation.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (running automated tests on push/PR, managing artifacts).
  • Background in domains such as space/satellite, aerospace, robotics, automation or electronics manufacturing.
  • Familiarity with Docker or similar tools for reproducible environments and pipelines.
  • Experience writing technical documentation and SDLC deliverables (READMEs, changelogs, test plans, design/review notes).
