  • Technical Proficiencies:
  • Strong background in testing embedded systems, real-time software, and complex multidisciplinary products.
  • An advantage, not a requirement: Hands-on experience with test automation tools and scripting languages (e.g., Python, C++, or Java).
  • Familiarity with networking protocols, Windows& Linux environments
  • Toolchain Knowledge: Proficiency with modern ALM and collaboration tools, such as Jira, Doors/ Jama, and Git-based repositories (GitLab/Bitbucket).
  • Methodologies: Deep understanding of Agile/Scrum development methodologies and structured V&V lifecycles.
  • Languages: Good command of English and Hebrew (verbal and written), essential for technical documentation and international interfaces.
  • Personal Attributes: Highly analytical mindset, exceptional attention to detail, strong problem-solving capabilities, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, mission-critical R&D environment.
