Job Description
We are seeking a Software Engineer I to join the HMS Solutions Engineering Integration & Testing team. You will help build and maintain software that tests external system interfaces, runs realistic message exchanges, and turns test results into useful engineering information.
This is a hands-on role for a new graduate or early-career engineer interested in software development, integration, automated testing, and autonomous systems. You will work with experienced software and systems engineers to build Python tools, interact with complex software systems, and improve system-level testing.
What you'll do
* Develop and maintain Python software used to set up tests, exercise system interfaces, check messages, and create reports.
* Create automated tests that simulate external systems and evaluate a system under test.
* Use interface documents and message schemas to create test inputs and expected results.
* Investigate failures using logs, messages, configuration files, network traffic, and test results.
* Contribute to parsers, validation tools, command-line tools, and reporting workflows.
* Help maintain reliable Linux and container-based development and test environments.
* Write tests, take part in code reviews, and create clear setup and troubleshooting documentation.
* Work with software, systems, autonomy, and integration engineers to understand behavior and resolve defects.
