Hi! This is the Flipper team. We are the creators of Flipper Zero — a portable device for tech enthusiasts and engineers. We're building a new product — Flipper One, a full-featured ARM-based computer running Linux in a compact form factor, powered by the Rockchip RK3576 SoC.
We're looking for a QA Engineer to ensure the quality of Flipper One by combining automated and hands-on hardware testing. You'll work closely with the firmware team to build reliable test automation while validating the product on real devices in our London office.
Responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites for Flipper One using Python-based testing frameworks.
- Validate firmware and software functionality on real hardware, identifying defects and ensuring reliable product behaviour.
- Create and improve test scenarios and test documentation to increase coverage and support the development process.
- Investigate Linux system behaviour, collect logs, analyse failures, and help engineers reproduce and resolve issues.
Requirements:
- Deep practical experience with Linux: shell, systemd/services, logs, permissions, networking, processes, cron, SSH, package managers.
- Ability to write Bash scripts and use standard Linux tools: grep, awk, sed, curl, journalctl, netstat/ss, top/htop, ps, lsof, tcpdump or similar.
- Understanding of networking stack at TCP/IP level: Ethernet, IP, TCP/UDP, routing, sockets, ports, DNS, DHCP, ARP, MTU, packet loss, retransmissions, latency, timeouts, and connection states.
- Ability to work from our London office, especially during the initial stage of the project.
Nice-to-haves:
- Experience with IoT, embedded, networking, telecom, infrastructure, cloud, or device-related systems.
- Experience with tools such as ModemManager, NetworkManager, mmcli, nmcli, QMI/MBIM, or AT commands.
What we offer:
- Workplace in our own stand-alone office located in Design District, London, near North Greenwich Station (Jubilee line).
- You will be provided with all the necessary equipment for a comfortable working environment.
- Benefits such as VHI, corporate sports, foreign language courses, and therapy sessions.
- A five-day workweek with a flexible start of the working day.
