What is a localization tester?

A Localization Tester ensures that a product, such as a website, app, or game, is correctly adapted for a specific region or language. They check for linguistic accuracy, cultural appropriateness, and functional consistency. This involves verifying translations, UI layouts, date formats, currency, and overall user experience. Their role helps ensure that localized products feel natural and error-free for local users.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of a localization tester?

As a Localization Tester, your daily tasks usually include reviewing translated content in software, apps, or games to check for linguistic accuracy, cultural relevance, and functional issues. You'll execute test cases, log bugs, and verify that language-specific elements like dates, currencies, or UI layouts display correctly. Collaboration with QA engineers, translators, and developers is common to resolve issues and ensure a high-quality user experience. Regular communication and reporting on progress and challenges is also part of the routine. This role requires a methodical approach and a keen eye for spotting subtle errors that could impact the user experience.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a localization tester?

To thrive as a Localization Tester, you need fluency in the target language(s), solid attention to detail, and a strong understanding of software or game testing principles. Familiarity with test management tools (like JIRA and TestRail), localization platforms, and sometimes CAT tools or translation memory systems is often expected. Excellent communication, adaptability, and cultural awareness are essential soft skills for this role. These competencies ensure that localized products are accurate, culturally appropriate, and technically functional for global users.

Is localization a good job?

Localization testing is a specialized role that involves verifying software or content for language accuracy, cultural appropriateness, and functionality across different regions. It often requires attention to detail, language skills, and familiarity with testing tools, making it a valuable part of the software development process. The job can offer steady employment and opportunities for skill development in international markets.

What does a localization tester do?

A localization tester reviews software, websites, or applications to ensure that translated content, formatting, and cultural elements are accurate and appropriate for specific regions. They identify issues related to language, layout, and functionality in localized versions, often using testing tools and scripts to verify consistency across different languages and regions.

Job description

Rover Navigation/Localization Engineer
Department: Software Engineering
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Hawthorne, California
Reporting To: Denise Brown
Compensation: $140,000 - $200,000 / year
Description
Astrolab is The Lunar Operations Company. We design and build the systems and hardware the lunar economy will come to depend on - rovers, power, and data networks for sustained operations on the Moon. We are focused on the problems that must be solved before the next chapter of human exploration can scale. The Moon does not forgive untested assumptions. The people who work here know that, and they wouldn't have it any other way.
The Rover Navigation/Localization Engineer will be responsible for the design, analysis, development, tuning, verification, and validation of localization solutions for Astrolab's rovers. Astrolab's localization solutions utilize inputs from multiple types of sensors (e.g. IMU, star tracker, Lidar, cameras) to estimate vehicle state while also tolerating real world conditions such as data dropouts, invalid data, transmission latencies, and similar. The Rover Navigation/Localization Engineer will be creating localization solutions that function reliably under real world conditions.
Note: Some travel may be required for this position
What you'll do:
  • Design, prototype, and analyze navigation/localization algorithms for extraplanetary mobility systems using simulated and real data from motor resolvers, IMUs, star trackers, cameras, and LiDARs
  • Support development of a GNC simulation, sensor models, and tooling for analysis, verification, and validation of rover localization algorithms
  • Analyze localization algorithm performance under real-world conditions such as faulty sensors, invalid data, data dropouts, variable data latencies, and poor lighting conditions
  • Perform Monte Carlo analysis to demonstrate localization algorithm performance to a high degree of statistical significance under nominal and off-nominal conditions
  • Support navigation/localization flight software implementation, testing, and verification
  • Support field testing of localization solutions on multiple test platforms
  • Stand up automated pipelines, test scenarios, test pass/fail criteria, and test reports for localization flight software verification and validation
  • Support live rover operations and troubleshoot any localization issues that may arise during lunar operations

What you'll bring:
Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics) field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
  • 5+ years of experience designing, developing, and testing navigation and localization systems for rovers, autonomous vehicles, mobile robotic platforms, GPS-denied navigation systems, or similar applications
  • Experience developing and applying state-estimation or localization solutions using multiple sensor inputs, including IMUs, wheel encoders/resolvers, LiDAR, cameras, radar, GNSS, or similar sensors
  • Experience developing and applying odometry solutions using multiple sensor modalities
  • Experience designing, tuning, developing, analyzing, and verifying Kalman filters, particle filters, or similar state-estimation techniques
  • Experience applying vehicle kinematics and dynamics principles to wheeled vehicle navigation and localization problems
  • Experience developing, testing, or applying visual odometry solutions
  • Experience addressing real-world navigation and localization challenges, including invalid sensor data, packet loss, communication latency, image degradation, and similar operational conditions.
  • Experience supporting navigation or localization systems through multiple phases of the product lifecycle, including development, testing, integration, and operational support
  • Strong C++ and Python software development skills
  • Experience developing software tools for localization, perception, sensor-fusion tuning, performance analysis, and debugging
  • Experience with extraterrestrial rover navigation systems, planetary mobility systems, or other autonomous robotic exploration platforms
  • Experience working with GNC-related sensors and associated error characteristics, including IMUs, star trackers, LiDAR, cameras, radar, GNSS receivers, and similar devices

Benefits and Perks
  • Join a team of best-in-class engineers building the foundation of planetary surface exploration
  • Equity ownership in the company
  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and mental health support
  • 401(k) plan with company match
  • Flexible PTO and parental leave
  • Home office set up reimbursement
  • Weekly lunch stipend, plus complimentary snacks and beverages on-site
  • Once a month social hour on-site with food and drinks
