Deine Rolle im Team Do you want to help save the world's water resources through high-quality, reliable scientific software? We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer to enhance the quality of a global software solution for environmental modelling. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working with complex, computation-heavy desktop applications and has the experience and confidence to design automation frameworks from scratch. We are currently seeking an experienced QA Automation Engineer to take ownership of the test efforts for our FEFLOW groundwater simulation software. You will be the key driver of automation strategy and quality practices for FEFLOW. Own and drive integration test automation for FEFLOW across client layers (Python/console/UI). Build a Python-based automation framework from scratch, including harness, adapters, and reporting. Automate modelling workflows using the Python API (IFM-based and COM-backed extensions) and validate engine-level outcomes. Create and maintain regression baselines with scientific correctness checks (tolerances/invariants). Design tests that validate behaviour consistency across clients and interface boundaries. Integrate suites into CI/CD, improve reliability, diagnostics, and execution performance. Partner with developers and domain experts to define expected results and quality risks. Unsere Erwartungen an dich Ausbildung We are looking for a new colleague to join us on our quest who has a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.

Ability to validate engine/solver outputs using tolerances, invariants, and regression baselines. Strong debugging skills: logs, repro isolation, developer-grade defect reporting. Knowledge of 2D/3D modeling software or engineering applications. Exposure to mixed API stacks (legacy C-like APIs + interface-based APIs). German language skills (B1 or higher). Erfahrung 8+ years in test automation for complex systems; proven ability to build frameworks from scratch. Experience with integration testing of desktop/native applications via SDKs/scripting interfaces (not only web APIs). CI/CD experience running heavy integration/regression suites (Azure DevOps/GitHub Actions). Prior experience working with scientific, engineering, or water modelling software.
