About the job

At Google, our philosophy is build it, break it and then rebuild it better. That thinking is at the core of how we approach testing at Google. Unlike roles with similar names at the other companies, Test Engineers at Google aren\'t manual testers - you write scripts to automate testing and create tools so developers can test their own code. As a Test Engineer, you navigate Google\'s massive codebase, identify weak spots and constantly design better and creative ways to break software and identify potential problems. You\'ll have a huge impact on the quality of Google\'s growing suite of products and services.

You use your knowledge of testing and testability to influence better software design, promote proper engineering practice, bug prevention strategies, testability, accessibility, privacy, and other advanced quality concepts across products. Google\'s mission is to organize the world\'s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user\'s interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people\'s lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Be a key driver for test engineering practices, principles, and methodologies.
• Develop scalable and reliable automated tests and frameworks for testing embedded hardware devices.
• Drive to improve software quality assurance processes and methodologies.
• Work with cross-functional teams and come up with optimal and creative solutions.
• Design, create, modify, and execute test plans and tests for hardware and software validation at both system and user level.
