Sr. Systems Verification Engineer

The System Verification Engineer answers a single, critical question: “did we build the system according to its requirements?” As an early member of a new System Verification & Validation department, this role builds the system-level verification layer between subsystem verification and customer validation for Neptune’s integrated hardware, firmware, and cloud/application solutions.

Each system requirement is verified by test, inspection, analysis, or demonstration, with traceable evidence that feeds gate-readiness decisions.

AI-assisted test case development and spec-driven automation are core working methods, with people accountable for everything accepted.

Key Responsibilities



* Verification planning.

Develop system verification plans and procedures mapping each system requirement to a verification method per IEEE Std 1012, and contribute to the department’s verification strategy, templates, and review practices.


* Review system and marketing requirements for testability and measurable criteria, and define verification-enabling requirements early (test modes, debug, API hooks).


* System test case development.

Build and maintain the system test case library, including end-to-end coverage, negative testing, accuracy, communication, OTA update, and security.


* AI-assisted test development.

Use AI to draft and challenge test cases from requirements and field-defect history, reviewing output for missed coverage and invented requirements.

Someone other than the drafter reviews every test case before acceptance.


* Spec-driven automation.

Write testable specs with stable requirement IDs and acceptance criteria, derive automated tests from them before code, and use AI-assisted sessions to implement automation through reviewed pull requests and CI.


* Execution, evidence, and traceability.

Execute system verification, capture objective pass/fail evidence, and maintain traceability from customer need to requirement to test to evidence across Jira, Confluence, and the test management tool, supporting Gate readiness.


* Defect analysis and quality feedback.

Determine root cause across HW/FW/SW boundaries and feed significant escapes back into requirements, procedures, and regression tests.


* Partner with Systems Engineering, Software QA, hardware and firmware teams, Test Engineering, and Product to ensure coverage is complete and evidence handoffs are clear.

Required Qualifications



* Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).


* 5+ years in verification, test, or systems engineering for hardware/firmware/software or embedded/IoT products.


* Working knowledge of the V-Model and verification methods (test, inspection, analysis, demonstration), with experience authoring verification plans, procedures, and evidence-based reports.


* Familiarity with requirements traceability and specification ...
