We are seeking an enthusiastic Test Automation Engineer Co-op to join our System Test team supporting Operator, our cloud-native security incident management platform. In this role, you will assist in designing and implementing automated tests, develop device simulators, and gain hands-on experience using AI tools to support development and testing. A unique and exciting aspect of this role is the opportunity to directly test physical hardware integrations, specifically live cameras and access control systems, within a modern cloud application. Working closely with senior engineers and the broader test team, you will learn what it takes to ensure our products meet the strict quality standards our customers rely on for critical security operations. You will gain practical exposure to analyzing requirements, integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines, and executing test runs.

Cloud & Hardware Testing: Assist in developing and executing automated and manual tests bridging software and hardware, specifically focusing on how cameras, doors, and access control systems interact seamlessly within our cloud-native application. Device Simulation: Help build and maintain software-based device simulators (such as camera simulators) to mock physical hardware behaviors, allowing the team to effectively and reliably test cloud application features at scale.

Analysis: Learn to analyze specifications and functional requirements alongside senior testers to identify candidates for automation versus manual execution. Automation Framework Design: Contribute to scalable test automation frameworks using TypeScript and Playwright, supporting complex system features in a distributed SOC environment. CI/CD & Execution: Gain hands-on experience monitoring and configuring GitHub Workflows for Continuous Integration (CI/CD), analyzing automated run results, and learning to log defects with technical precision.

Education: Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field (ideally in your 2nd, 3rd, or 4th year). Foundational Knowledge: Solid academic or personal project experience in software development, scripting, or testing. Programming Skills: Basic proficiency or strong foundational knowledge in TypeScript
