All work will be performed on location at the HydroPoint offices in Boise; remote work assignments are not an option\n\nJob Description Summary\nHydroPoint Data Systems, Inc. is seeking a full-time QA Test Engineer to own quality across our IoT device ecosystem — from firmware on the device to data in the cloud. If you love digging into hardware-software boundaries, tracing data end-to-end, and building the test infrastructure that makes a product truly reliable, this role was designed for you.\nYou will be the sole QA engineer focused on our IoT devices — irrigation controllers, flow sensors, and connected components — and their full interaction with our cloud services. That means running functional and regression tests after every firmware change, validating that data flows correctly from the device through our cloud processing pipeline to the database, and querying that database directly to confirm everything behaves as expected. It also means testing our iOS and Android mobile apps as they communicate with devices over Bluetooth. You’ll work with real hardware in a real test environment, writing and maintaining Python-based automated test suites alongside hands-on device testing. And you’ll bring structure to the work — building test plans from specifications and defining strategy, not just executing against someone else’s checklist.\nThis is a high-ownership role for someone who thrives working closely with a development team, takes pride in shipping quality products, and cares about the mission: helping the world use water more wisely.\nOur Tech Stack\nWindows, Linux\nAWS Cloud Native Services (ECS, EC2, S3, Lambda, SQS, Kinesis, Redshift)\nC#, .NET Framework\nJavaScript, React\nSQL Server\n\nKey Responsibilities:\nEnd-to-end functional and regression testing of IoT devices (irrigation controllers, IoT components, and Flow Sensors) following firmware changes, including validation of communication through cloud service data processing pipelines to the database.\nQuery the database to verify data integrity and confirm expected device behavior end-to-end.\nTesting mobile iOS and Android applications that communicate with and control IoT devices, including Bluetooth connectivity between the mobile app and IoT hardware.\nTesting simple electrical interfaces and manage our environmental chamber.\nCreate test plans from functional specifications and define test strategy for IoT device features and firmware releases.\nExecute automated test suites, maintain existing tests, and write new tests in Python to improve speed and coverage.\nWorking with customer service and product to address escalation issues, bugs, and support requests.\n\nRequired Skills & Experience:\nBachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Information Systems, IEEE, or Quality Assurance related.\nFive (5) or more years of experience in software quality assurance\nEmbedded software products testing\nHardware functional testing\nIoT testing experience desirable\nMobile and web application testing\nExperience developing and executing end-to-end tests exercising hardware, firmware, and Cloud-native services\nFamiliarity testing native mobile apps on both iOS & Android\nIoT devices & hardware\nPython — writing, executing, and maintaining automated test suites\nSQL querying skills to validate data in relational databases and confirm device behavior\nMobile application behavioral testing with IoT hardware\nDesired Skills & Experience\nPython\nJira\nConfluence\nAWS\nTest Automation\nIrrigation background\nSQL skills\nFamiliarity querying REST API\nPerformance Testing\n\nAbout HydroPoint\nHydroPoint is the leader in smart water management solutions, helping companies to maximize water savings, reduce operating costs, minimize business risks, and achieve sustainability goals.
