Let’s move forward together.\nOur Purpose\nWe believe smarter tools create smarter operations. As the switched-on experts in IoT fleet solutions, we transform uncertainty into confidence, complexity into clarity, and data into decisions.\nOur Vision\nWe empower partners with intelligent fleet logistics to create a more connected future. From bustling cities to open highways, from railroads to runways, our innovative technologies make peace of mind the new normal.\nOur Mission\nTo be the world’s most trusted partner in smart fleet logistics, delivering comprehensive IoT solutions that transform data into useful information. We enhance fleet safety, efficiency, and performance-ensuring confidence at every step.\nAbout the role\nWe’re hiring a QA Engineer based in either our Enschede or Belfast office, to ensure our next-generation video dashcam platform delivers reliable, high-performance AI features that bring real-world value to fleet operators and drivers.\nThis role is 3 days/week on-site, non-negotiable. This is a hands-on-hardware role, and hands-on-hardware roles need hands in the room. Remote or fully remote arrangements are not available for his position.\nFor UK based roles applicants must have the legal right to work at the time of application. We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role.\nWhat you'll do\nYou'll build and grow the test automation systems that validate our AI products before they ever reach the field. Requirements come in. You figure out what components make it real. You wire it up. You write the code that ties it all together and plugs it into our test simulator.\nDesign it. Build it. Ship it. Do it right.\nWhere hardware meets AI. Where code meets solder.\nWe're not looking for someone who just writes code. We're looking for someone who builds things. Who takes a pile of components, a rough idea, and a soldering iron, and turns it into a working system.\nThis is where test automation meets AI. This is where prototypes get built, broken, and rebuilt better.\nWhat you'll bring\nReal electrical skills: soldering, prototyping, building from scratch.\nA genuine hacker/maker mentality: curious, resourceful, allergic to \"that's not possible\".\nThe instinct to take a vague requirement and turn it into a working solution, end to end.\nQualifications\nRequired\nBachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic & Systems Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).\n5+ years experience in embedded/IoT development. You've shipped things, not just prototyped them.\nStrong chops in Python, Linux, Git, the everyday toolkit.\nSolid software engineering discipline: clean code, sensible architecture, tests that actually mean something.\nComfortable with code reviews, giving and receiving them, and making the codebase better through them.\nCI/CD know-how. You build pipelines, not just push code and hope.\nYou work well as part of a team. This isn't a lone-wolf role, it's a build-together role.\nPreferred\nFamiliarity with ADAS/DMS systems or vehicle telematics.\nExperience with pytest or a similar test framework, and with Git version control.\nExperience using AI coding assistants in an engineering workflow, with a clear approach to reviewing and validating their output.\nLinux command line and Android/ADB experience.\nFixture design experience, e.g. CAD, harness drawings, 3D printing.\nExperience with video classification or annotation tools.\nFamiliarity with test tools such as CAN analysers, GPS simulators or diagnostic readers.\nExperience working with dashcams, vehicle sensors or automotive accessories.\nWhy Xirgo\nThis is where ideas fuse with silicon. This is where your solder joints, and your pull requests, end up validating the AI products of tomorrow.\nIf you want to build things and make AI actually work by fully testing it, this is your role. Come fuse ideas with us at Xirgo.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3987,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Fleet Management"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-09T12:06:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":77,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.853,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":14,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["conf:4","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-11-09T16:27:53Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/xirgo-qa-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/xirgo-qa-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T16:27:53Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":23939,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":694208},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=694208"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fxirgo-qa-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fxirgo-qa-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fxirgo-qa-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/xirgo-qa-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fxirgo-qa-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3961865}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"xirgo.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3961865},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
