Ai Developer Jobs in Alberta (NOW HIRING)

Detailed Description:

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test frameworks for embedded systems, backend services, and operator interfaces (desktop, web, or mobile).
• Implement automated regression, integration, and system-level tests for real-time and hardware-integrated software.
• Collaborate with developers and hardware engineers to define test strategies for timing-sensitive and safety-critical functionality.
• Develop test harnesses and simulation environments to validate software behavior without requiring physical hardware where possible.
• Utilize AI development tools to assist in generating test cases, building test scripts, analyzing logs, and identifying defect patterns.
• Evaluate AI-generated test artifacts to ensure meaningful coverage, correctness, and reproducibility.
• Perform root cause analysis on defects spanning software, hardware interaction, and deployment environments.
• Participate in requirements reviews and design discussions to identify quality risks early in the development lifecycle.
• Support CI/CD integration by ensuring automated tests are incorporated into build and release pipelines.
• Track, document, and communicate defects clearly, including reproduction steps and impact assessment.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of quality standards, automation coverage, and testing methodologies.
• Support field validation efforts and assist in troubleshooting production issues as required.
• Perform other related duties and special projects, as assigned.

Job Requirements:

• Demonstrated experience designing and maintaining automated test frameworks.
• Strong understanding of software testing methodologies including unit, integration, system, regression, and performance testing.
• Experience with scripting or programming languages used for test automation (e.g., C#, Python, or similar).
• Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and integration of automated testing into build systems.
• Ability to analyze logs, telemetry, and system behavior to diagnose defects.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, including clear defect documentation and cross-functional collaboration.
• Ability to work effectively in a cross-functional, matrixed organization including software, hardware, controls, and operations teams.
• Ability to manage multiple initiatives in a fast-paced development environment while maintaining quality standards.
• Experience using AI-assisted tools to accelerate test creation, defect analysis, and documentation.
• Represent the Company and its values with integrity while maintaining high professional and ethical standards in all interactions.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 3-6 years of experience in QA, test automation, or software quality engineering.
• Experience building or maintaining automated test frameworks.
• Experience working within Agile development teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience testing real-time or hardware-integrated systems.
• Familiarity with industrial communication protocols such as CAN bus or Modbus.
• Experience building simulation or hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing environments.
• Exposure to embedded systems or RTOS concepts.
• Experience implementing performance or stress testing in distributed systems.
• Experience using AI tools for test case generation, log analysis, or anomaly detection.
• Prior experience in industrial, automation, or Oil & Gas environments.

Additional Details:

The QA Automation Engineer must work with an emphasis on individual safety and safety for others, including coworkers and third parties. Software tested may directly control physical equipment; therefore, thorough validation and risk awareness are essential. Work is primarily performed in a climate-controlled office or remote environment, with occasional interaction with hardware systems for integration testing. The employee is regularly required to sit, stand, or use computer equipment for extended periods.
