Are you someone who finds satisfaction in the details? Do you enjoy the process of systematically checking software to ensure it works perfectly with physical hardware?
In our cross functional and cross Site team, we are looking for a Test Technician with a strong interest in Instrument testing focusing on Software Testing to join our team in Sant Cugat. While you will be working with physical medical instruments, your primary focus will be on the software that drives them—executing test cases, documenting defects, and ensuring the system is reliable for patient use.
