Job Description
Full job description
Calgary, AB | Full-time | in-person
TEKTELIC Communications is a leading Canadian IoT and wireless solutions company, trusted in 75+ countries. We're looking for a Test Automation Engineer to help build and maintain the testing infrastructure that ensures our global products work flawlessly - every time.
What You'll Do
Design, develop, and maintain MATLAB-based automated test systems.
Analyze product and system requirements, develop comprehensive test plans, and maintain clear traceability from requirements through test cases to results.
Develop and execute functional, regression, failover, soak, and performance tests.
Integrate and control RF and electronic test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators, power supplies, attenuators, and power meters.
Automate communication with gateways, sensors, embedded systems, and supporting services through appropriate interfaces and protocols.
Diagnose failures across application software, test scripts, instruments, fixtures, networks, and devices under test.
Deploy, upgrade, and support test systems used in engineering laboratories and production environments.
Improve test reporting and analyze results to identify defects, recurring failures, and opportunities for better coverage.
Identify opportunities to reduce test time and cost while improving reliability, maintainability, and repeatability.
Help define the architecture, technical priorities, and long-term direction of the test automation platform.
Champion practical software engineering practices, including source control, issue and defect tracking, code review, testable design, change management, and release processes.
Establish maintainable coding and automation standards while improving technical documentation and knowledge sharing.
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to other team members, building consensus and leading improvements through collaboration and example.
What You Bring
A bachelor's degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
At least three years of experience in test automation, hardware/software integration, QA engineering, or a closely related role.
Strong MATLAB programming skills, including experience developing, maintaining, and debugging automation software.
Hands-on experience testing hardware in an industry, research, or advanced laboratory environment.
Experience designing structured, repeatable tests and translating technical requirements into test cases and measurable results.
Strong understanding of software development practices such as source control, issue tracking, code review, automated testing, and controlled releases.
Experience influencing technical direction, improving development processes, or leading engineering initiatives without relying on formal authority.
Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills across both hardware and software.
Ability to work independently, manage technical priorities, and carry improvements from initial investigation through deployment and support.
Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams.
Nice-to-Haves
Experience with RF or wireless products and instruments, including SCPI- or VISA-controlled equipment.
Experience with Python scripting or Python-based test frameworks.
Comfortable working in Linux environments and writing shell scripts.
Experience with MySQL or other relational databases and automated test-result analysis.
Familiarity with serial/USB communication, Ethernet, SSH, TCP/IP, REST APIs, SNMP, or Modbus.
Experience with embedded Linux, IoT devices, LoRaWAN
