Your territory

As part of our Factory & Tools team, you will:

• Collaborate with external partners (e.g. on the Factory Test Tool) to keep our production lines running smoothly
• Monitor and analyze KPIs to identify areas for improvement and implement data-driven solutions
• Own and develop our hardware-in-the-loop setup for Firmware CI/CD — using smart, creative testing approaches to further boost Firmware quality
• Build and maintain test infrastructure to validate tracker performance, streamline processes, and support Firmware reliability
• Collaborate with Firmware, Backend, Tech Support, QA, and external partners while independently driving projects forward
• Bring in your fresh ideas to make Tractive better - you’ll never hear the phrase “...because that’s how we’ve always done things”
• Continuously grow personally and professionally, take ownership of areas that show your potential, and attend workshops which help you get to the next level
