Job description

Lives reasonably close to the St. Charles / west St. Louis metro area

  • Collaborative, low-ego WHAT DOES NOT FIT

  • Pure hardware test / validation engineers - there's an engineer for that

  • QA Managers who want to write test plans and organize processes to manage in a team are the the one. There is no team.

  • Automation specialists who lead with tooling and frameworks - the team isn't there yet

  • Has tested physical products / instruments (preferred over software-only applications)

  • Curious about automation without being a zealot about it Mindset:

  • Genuinely likes QA - this is a career path for them, not a fallback

  • Wants to be part of building something, not just executing against an established process

Benefits & conditions

  • $51,000-82,000 per year Responsibilities Westar Display Technologies is a leading supplier of display quality assurance (QA) and automated optical measurement systems, as well as video processing soluti…
