Description
NavVis is a global leader in reality capture and digital factory solutions, bridging the physical and digital worlds with photorealistic digital twins. As a Senior Software Quality Engineer, you will shape quality engineering across the complex, data-intensive processing systems of NavVis IVION. You will build test strategies, automation, data, observability, and feedback loops to help the team identify risks early and deliver reliable software. Your scope covers individual processing components and end-to-end workflows, including advanced 3D data ingestion, processing, streaming, and web rendering. You will join the IVION Data Foundation team, working in a hybrid model with dedicated in-office days each week.
Requirements
- Several years of professional experience owning and advancing quality engineering for data-intensive, high-performance processing systems
- Hands-on experience designing measurements and quality signals for correctness, runtime, scalability, and resource consumption across CPU, GPU, memory, storage, and I/O
- A systematic, data-driven approach to investigating failures, diagnosing regressions, and distinguishing deterministic defects from effects caused by concurrency, parallelism, or non-deterministic system behavior
- Solid Python skills and practical experience with PyTest or comparable test frameworks, combined with the ability to read unfamiliar code and build a strong understanding of complex systems
- Practical experience working with Linux, Docker, and Kubernetes in development or production-like environments
- Sound engineering judgment and a holistic mindset, applied to prioritizing between functional quality, performance, reliability, delivery speed, and infrastructure cost
- Interest in applying AI beyond personal productivity to improve QA systems and automation, for example, turning observability signals into diagnoses, test cases, fixes, or pull requests
