• Develop software testing infrastructure and tests to verify spacecraft systems function correctly across platforms with varying combinations of emulators and hardware.
• Improve testing infrastructure capabilities to support developer and automated testing needs.
• Execute test procedures manually when multi-million dollar spacecraft hardware is involved, and report regressions.
• Expand nightly autonomous tests across continuous integration pipelines for increased coverage.
• Write bug tickets for software issues found during verification.
• Develop automatic reporting tools to map test results to subsystem-level requirements.
• Benchmark and analyze spacecraft system performance across flight modes.
• Identify and resolve anomalous software behavior.
• Work with developers, engineers and technicians to resolve problems found through testing.
• Manage test regressions, resources, and test software repositories.
