We are looking for a motivated Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join the Revit and Civil 3D Install Team. This role focuses on Revit Installation testing, ensuring the quality, reliability, and stability of installer-related solutions and release deliveries.

As an SDET, you will collaborate with engineers and cross-functional partners to validate installer quality through test strategy, automation development, and risk assessment. You will ensure that Revit installation experiences—including install, upgrade, repair, and uninstall workflows—meet high-quality standards on Windows platforms.

Note: This is a test engineering role, not a pure software development position. The ideal candidate is passionate about software quality and desktop installation technologies, with solid knowledge of Windows OS fundamentals.

Responsibilities:

• Quality Culture: Contribute to a collaborative engineering team focused on quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.
• End-to-End Testing: Participate in requirements analysis, design review, test strategy definition, execution, defect tracking, and risk assessment for Revit Installation.
• Automation Development: Design, develop, and maintain automated test tools and cases for installer-related scenarios.
• Workflow Validation: Verify the reliability of workflows, including installation, upgrade, patching, repair, rollback, uninstallation, and version compatibility.
• Environmental Testing: Verify installer behavior across different Windows environments, system settings, user permissions, and machine states.
• Issue Investigation: Reproduce customer-reported or internal issues and work with developers to improve stability and usability.
• Process Optimization: Identify quality gaps and improve testing efficiency through better tooling and automation.
• Collaboration: Partner with software developers and global engineering teams to ensure high-quality product delivery.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Experience: 1+ year of relevant experience in software testing, QA, or as an SDET.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Testing Fundamentals: Good understanding of test design, defect lifecycle, root cause analysis, and quality risk assessment.
• Technical Skills:
• Basic programming/scripting skills (Python, Groovy, or Shell).
• Familiarity with test automation concepts.
• Solid understanding of Windows OS fundamentals (file system, registry, services, processes, permissions).
• Domain Knowledge: Basic knowledge of desktop software installation technologies and lifecycle scenarios.
• Soft Skills: Strong problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills; ability to work in a global, collaborative environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Specialized Testing: Experience testing desktop applications or Windows installer packages.
• Installation Tech: Knowledge of MSI, bootstrapper-based installers, silent installation, and dependency validation.
• Diagnostics: Familiarity with Windows system diagnostics and troubleshooting tools for deployment issues.
• CI/CD: Familiarity with Jenkins or other Continuous Integration systems.
• Knowledge of Microsoft .NET platform is a plus.
