Job Summary
Gain efficiencies reduce waste and ensure every thing is in the right place at the right time by connecting everything you make transport and sell.
The System Automation Engineer will play a key role in designing developing and maintaining robust test automation frameworks for RFID system validation. This position works in close collaboration with test engineers to enable efficient reliable and repeatable execution of system-level tests through Python-based scripting. Strong software development expertise is essential to build scalable maintainable and high-performing automation infrastructure that supports Impinj RFID reader products and systems.
Beyond the technical scope the company fosters a highly collaborative and proactive environment with a strong focus on continuous learning and people development. Teamwork knowledge sharing and professional growth are central to the culture empowering individuals to contribute meaningfully while evolving in their careers.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop robust test automation framework architectures for RFID system validation with a focus on scalability maintainability and performance.
- Implement Python-based interfaces for controlling and communicating with RFID readers to enable test execution diagnostics and data collection.
- Integrate test hardware (e.g. signal generators spectrum analyzers emulated tags) into the automation framework for fully automated test execution and data acquisition.
- Develop and optimize system performance test scripts based on engineering specifications enabling data logging system validation and post-test analytics.
- Implement and manage relational database systems (e.g. SQL) for organizing and storing test results; implement automated data pipelines for ingestion parsing and aggregation of large-scale datasets.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex system-level issues involving interactions between RFID hardware automation software and test environments ensuring alignment with product requirements.
- This position requires onsite presence twice a week.
