Test & Systems Engineer – Python / Linux ID50374

Oxford | Hybrid

Do you enjoy getting to the bottom of difficult technical problems?

Have you used Python or Bash to automate testing, investigate bugs or improve engineering processes ?

Looking for something more technical than a traditional support or manual QA role?

Our client is a growing Oxford-based technology business looking for a Test & Systems Engineer to join its engineering team.

You’ll work across software testing, automation, systems troubleshooting and releases , getting hands-on with Linux, Python, Docker and connected systems.

Why This Role is Great

This is a role for someone who wants to test, investigate and improve technology , rather than simply follow predefined test scripts.

You’ll get to:

• Own software and systems testing , including regression, integration and end-to-end testing.
• Automate with Python and Bash , making testing and technical processes faster and more reliable.
• Dig into complex bugs , using Linux, logs and command-line tools to identify root causes.
• Work closely with developers , reproducing issues and validating fixes.
• Get hands-on with Docker, Git and CI/CD as part of testing and release workflows.
• Build broader systems knowledge , investigating issues across interconnected software and technology.
• Influence testing processes as the engineering team and product continue to develop.

There is some interaction with users when complex issues arise, but this is an engineering-led position rather than a traditional support desk role .

About You

You could currently be a Test Engineer, QA Automation Engineer, Systems Engineer, Integration Engineer or come from a software engineering background where testing and debugging have become your strengths.

Our client’s wishlist

• Good Python and/or Bash scripting skills
• Experience with software testing and QA
• Exposure to Docker
• Familiarity with Git and CI/CD
• A methodical approach to debugging complex technical problems

You don't need everything on the list. Experience with similar technologies or transferable engineering skills is absolutely worth a conversation.
