SOFTWARE VALIDATION ENGINEER

On behalf of our client, an innovative and fast-growing international company specializing in sustainable productivity solutions, we are seeking a talented Software Validation Engineer to join their team.
You will be part of their Technology & Innovation department within the Portable Power and Flow Division. Their mission is to scout, evaluate, and implement cutting-edge solutions—from energy sources to control systems and connectivity—to deliver unique, efficient, and high-performance products.

We are looking for a SOFTWARE VALIDATION ENGINEER with a background in industrial environments, PLC, and software testing. You will bring a "fresh pair of eyes" to the development process: your main goal will be to validate and certify the software developed internally, ensuring top-tier quality and pushing the boundaries of their testing capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and execute comprehensive test plans and test cases for newly developed software.
• Conduct functional, regression, integration, and system testing to ensure robust software quality.
• Identify, document, and track software defects, proactively finding flaws to facilitate resolution.
• Develop and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks to enhance testing efficiency.
• Collaborate closely with software developers, application specialists, and hardware engineers to devise effective test strategies.
• Continuously refine and improve internal testing processes to reduce reliance on external suppliers.

Technical Profile

• Demonstrated experience (approx. 3-5 years) in software validation, ideally within industrial environments.
• Solid, hands-on knowledge of PLC.
• Strong expertise in programming languages such as Structured Text and JavaScript.
• Fluent in English (essential for daily technical work and international collaboration).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a highly proactive approach to discovering bugs and proposing improvements.

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with Python.
• Experience programming HMI (Human-Machine Interfaces).
• Knowledge in Energy Storage Systems (ESS), battery inverters, or solar technology.
• Familiarity with industrial communication protocols (CAN Bus, Modbus).
• Experience with Agile methodologies and tracking tools (e.g., Jira, Azure DevOps).

Personality Requirements

• You strive to challenge the status quo and create better solutions. You value high standards, never compromise on quality, and have a genuine passion for tackling challenges with technical depth.
• You are highly autonomous and do not wait for instructions; instead, you take the initiative to review code, test thoroughly, and find ways to improve the system. You embrace a practical, hands-on approach with a strong team spirit, ensuring accurate and precise delivery.

Why Join Them?

• Impact: Play a key role in a company committed to innovation, helping to build and strengthen a dedicated validation function from the ground up.
• Flexibility: Enjoy flexible working hours, intensive summer schedules, a hybrid working model (1 day of remote work per week), a free company bus, and a subsidized on-site canteen.
• Culture: Join a diverse and inclusive work environment in a multinational company with a strong culture of employee care, including an excellent pension plan and corporate medical insurance.
• Global Projects: Work with passionate professionals developing solutions integral to global markets, with occasional opportunities to collaborate with international facilities.

Location: Zaragoza (On-site).
