About the role

DroneShield is seeking a Senior Verification & Validation Engineer with hands-on experience in embedded systems and system-level testing. The role will report to the Verification and Validation Manager and work cross-functionally with Systems Engineering, QA, T&E, NPI and developers to ensure reliability, performance, and compliance of complex systems. 

This role focuses on system-level integration, performance benchmarking, environmental testing, and formal verification of both software and hardware components. You will contribute across the full V&V lifecycle – from test plan creation to execution and reporting – including real-world field testing and system behaviour validation. 

Responsibilities, Duties and Expectations 

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive test plans and procedures for embedded systems, integrated hardware/software solutions, and system-of-systems deployments. 
  • Design, implement, and execute both automated and manual system-level test cases. 
  • Lead verification activities across different engineering phases, including lab-based, and field testing. 
  • Perform environmental and reliability testing using temperature chambers, RF test benches, power measurement equipment, and other diagnostic tools. 
  • Conduct sensor integration testing, end-to-end data validation, and hardware/software interoperability verification. 
  • Ensure traceability of verification results to system requirements and design inputs using tools such as Jama/Doors. 
  • Collaborate with software and hardware engineering teams to debug, report, and resolve defects or anomalies. 
  • Prepare high-quality technical documentation including test reports, procedures, and V&V summaries. 
  • Support pre-release and user acceptance testing activities. 

Qualifications, Experience and Skills 

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical/Electronic, Mechatronics, Computer Science, or related technical discipline. 
  • 5+ years of experience in Verification & Validation or Systems Integration & Test roles. 
  • Strong understanding of system testing methodologies in safety-critical or defence/aerospace environments. 
  • Experience with scripting and automation tools (Python, Bash, etc.), and familiarity with Linux-based environments. 
  • Exposure to embedded systems, RF sensing, sensor fusion, or signal processing technologies is highly desirable. 
  • Experience with defect tracking and test management tools such as Jira, Xray, Jama and Confluence. 
  • Strong attention to detail, critical thinking, and a structured, methodical approach to test execution and documentation. 
  • Comfortable working hands-on with hardware, including sensors, antennas and field ready devices.
