Test Designer

Job title:

The Systems Test Architect is responsible for translating system requirements into well-defined, measurable test cases that comprehensively cover functionalities, interactions and edge cases, working under general supervision. The role develops system test scripts using appropriate scripting languages and tools aligned with Philips' testing frameworks, selecting the most effective tools based on system complexity. The role identifies potential system-level risks through threat modeling and system analysis and designs scenarios to mitigate these risks, contributing to early defect detection and preventing critical issues. The role executes a comprehensive suite of system tests, including functional, integration, and regression testing, following established test plans and procedures.

Your role:

Translates system requirements into well-defined, measurable test cases that comprehensively cover functionalities, interactions, and edge cases to ensure robust system verification, working under general supervision.

• Develops system test scripts leveraging appropriate scripting languages and tools aligned with Philips' testing frameworks which includes selecting the most effective tools and languages based on system complexity and test requirements.
• Identifies potential system-level risks through threat modeling and system analysis and designs test scenarios to mitigate these risks, contributing to early defect detection and preventing critical issues from reaching later stages of the development process.
• Executes a comprehensive suite of system tests (functional, integration, regression) following established test plans and procedures which may involve manual testing, automation execution, or a combination of both, depending on test complexity and efficiency needs.
• Analyzes test results with a critical eye to identify defects, diagnose root causes through systematic debugging techniques, and monitors key progress indicators such as requirement coverage, test protocol effectiveness, test execution, and defect identification and closure.
• Collaborates effectively with developers and other engineers to troubleshoot identified issues through clear communication, providing detailed information about identified defects, and working collaboratively to achieve efficient defect resolution.
• Participates in system integration activities, observing available data to monitor progress, identify risk, and judge release readiness and quality and provides valuable insights from a testing perspective.
• Demonstrates flexibility and adaptability by adjusting test strategies based on system complexity and evolving requirements by creating new test cases, modifying existing ones, or prioritizing tests to ensure focus on critical functionalities.
• Contributes to increased efficiency by supporting the creation of test automation frameworks for repetitive tasks by identifying suitable automation tools, developing reusable test scripts, and collaborating with colleagues to integrate automation into the overall testing process.
• Maintains a strong knowledge base by staying up to date with the latest system testing methodologies and tools relevant to Philips' products, shares knowledge and provides guidance to junior staff within own team.
