System Tester to Robotic R&D at Husqvarna

The spring sun hits your face when you jump out of the car at the test site.
Today, you will spend your day out here in the sun to start testing a new type of robotic mower (with really cool techniques), which will soon be out on the market.
That feeling is almost a bit tingly, knowing that your work will affect our customers' usage. With that in mind, you take a sip of your coffee and kick-start the day with some stay-out-zone testing for the mower.
Here, you can see a glimpse of what kind of product you may be working with:
Thank You Automower® or https://youtu.be/fvY3Jhil0LU.
The next day, you may instead be at the office, in Huskvarna. The oldest parts of the factory and facility are as old as the company itself, 330 years. You will meet your team on floor 3 in one of the newer buildings. Around 20 great colleagues (5 of them, you will meet later at Teams since they work from our Mumbai office). Since we are working agile, you kick off the day with some daily stand-up to go through which tests should be performed.
The team and the department:
As part of a tight-knit team of 17, you'll work closely with the entire product - to bring quality experiences to our customers. With robotics in a state of exciting expansion, this is your chance to be a part of a world-class development organization - and make a real impact. You'll work closely with other departments at Robotics, constantly discovering new and smarter ways to ensure our products are top-notch.
Our teams tackle projects with a creative flair and a "let's do this" attitude. Every project is a new adventure, and for example, we bring in our designers to join us in the lab for brainstorming session. We dive into the results, ready to take on any challenges that comes our way. Because, after all, there's no better way to conquer obstacles than together.
Here at Robotics, you really will be a part of changing the game for turf care.
Your contribution will be pivotal in ensuring our robotic mowers meet the high-quality standards that our customers have come to expect. Your testing and verification efforts will significantly improve user experience, enhance product safety, and shape the future of residential lawn care.
So, how can we make sure that the Automower doesn't get stuck in narrow passages or a small corridor and can't get out of there? That the customer can navigate the mower back to charging with the app, or that the mower always finds its way back to the charging station? The testing is up to you!
You will work closely with the development team, to highlight areas of improvement. You design and execute detailed test plans, to ensure our robotic mowers perform as intended. Regression testing, acceptance testing, and continuous verification of bug fixes - to find deviations against requirements and document unwanted mower behavior in the form of bugs or stories. That will be a big part of your working days as a System Tester here at Robotics.
You will also do WIFI-tests, Radar-testing, and GPS tests, for our newest family members (for example, NERA) that comes with Husqvarna's satellite navigation system, which enables the robotic mowers to work within virtual boundaries. Did we mention that it can be voice-activated? It even predicts the weather conditions to pick the perfect mowing time.
Yes, here you can be working with the technology of the future, that's for sure.
Your skills:
Here, we would usually fill in what we are looking for. But, we believe that you who get that smile on your face reading the above will have a broad competence in the field of testing, so we do not need to explain that in more detail.
But of course, we would be extra glad if you have been working with testing physical products with some software or embedded systems and have experience working in Jira. Extra plus for ISTQB (or other relevant certification) and a relevant education in testing, software development, electrical engineering, or mechatronic engineering.
You are fluent in English, both reading and writing. Since you will sometimes travel to our test facilities, you need to have a B driver's license.
Who you are:
As a person, you are structured, quality-conscious, and have an eye for details. Most importantly, we expect you to have a passion for what you do and that you want to be part of continuously improving how we work by being open and communicative and having fun with us!
Location:
Your primary work location will be at the site in Huskvarna. Travels up to 3 weeks per year are to be expected.
Your application:
Can you envision yourself being a part of this? If so, apply as soon as possible, but no later than 2023-06-18. We apply ongoing selection.
