The job

Were looking for a motivated Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join our 3DVis Cloud team at AVEVA.

Youll contribute to the delivery of best-in-class 3D visualisation and XR (Extended Reality) cloud streaming technologies, supporting AVEVAs industrial software portfolio. Your work will help ensure our cloud and on-premises solutions meet high standards of quality, robustness, and security.

This is a great opportunity for someone with some relevant experience who is excited by test automation, quality engineering, and cloud technologies, and who wants to grow their skills within a collaborative, scaled agile (SAFe) environment.

Key responsibilities

You will also be following AVEVAs software development quality practices and policies

Your responsibilities will include:

• Collaborate with developers, DevOps engineers and SDET engineers to define, implement, and execute functional and non-functional test coverage for our product, taking ownership of coverage for assigned features and work items.
• Enhance our test automation by independently designing, writing, and maintaining automated tests using C# within existing frameworks and team patterns.
• Maintain automated test execution by owning investigation of failures, improving test reliability (e.g., reducing flaky tests), and driving issues through to resolution within a continuous integration environment.
• Use Azure DevOps Test Plans to plan and execute regression testing, and Azure DevOps Pipelines to configure and run deployments to test environments.
• Improve our testing practices by identifying gaps in test coverage, proposing and implementing new test cases or automation improvements, and sharing best practices with the team.
• Help maintain production quality by investigating production issues and driving preventative improvements, such as strengthening automated regression coverage and test automation.

Essential requirements

We encourage you to apply even if you dont meet every skill.

• Understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) and how testing contributes to delivery.
• Proven experience in functional testing in a professional software environment with exposure to non-functional testing (e.g., reliability, performance, security) and the ability to take ownership of test coverage for assigned features.
• Comfortable in writing and maintaining automated tests using C# within existing team practices producing robust maintainable tests.
• Team-oriented and collaborative, with clear communication and strong organisational skills, able to work independently and collaboratively drive issues through to resolution with the team.
• Methodical, proactive can-do attitude with a strong learning mindset and desire to grow technical depth

Desired skills and competencies

• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines
• Understanding of software development principles such as OOP, SOLID and DRY.
• Familiarity with test automation frameworks
• Familiarity with performance and load testing (e.g., k6 or similar tools).
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams
• Knowledge of Azure cloud services
