Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Systems Integration & QA Engineer (All genders) - **Company:** SKD SE - **Location:** München, Germany - **Experience:** Experienced - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Testing (Software), Microsoft Windows, Systems Engineering, System Configuration, Linux, Python (Programming Language), Windows PowerShell, Software Engineering, Systems Integration, Scripting, Bug Reporting, Information Technology - **Published:** September 25, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=c42354a3e08b82cd ## About the Role * Degree in IT, Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. * 3+ years of experience in software QA testing, system integration, or a similar role bridging IT hardware and software development. * Hands-on experience assembling IT/simulator hardware and configuring operating systems (Windows and Linux). * Proven ability to define and build QA processes, write structured test plans, and manage bug-tracking workflows. * Strong technical communication skills to effectively translate user-end bugs into actionable data for software developers. * Professional working proficiency in English (both spoken and written)., * Familiarity with simulation engines (e.g., VBS4, Unreal, Unity) or complex tactical gaming environments. * Basic scripting skills (e.g., Python, PowerShell) to automate repetitive software testing or OS configuration tasks. * Experience in the defense sector or foundational knowledge of military operations/tactics to help evaluate simulation realism. ## Description Mission Simulation is STARK's digital proving ground - the tactical environment where our entire ecosystem of UAVs, surface vessels, and EW systems converges. The Mission Simulation team is a small, specialized group based in Munich, working closely with our platform and C2 teams to integrate all multi-domain assets into high-fidelity, Software-in-the-Loop simulators. We move fast, ship realistic environments, and build for three core purposes: rigorous testing, high-stakes demos, and tactical training. There is no room for gamification. We simulate the reality of combat - from complex swarm logic to EW degradation - ensuring that developers can fail fast, and real soldiers can train safely before hitting the battlefield., * Assemble and configure physical simulator hardware setups, integrating PCs, networking gear, and tactical peripherals (e.g., VR, HOTAS) to create realistic testing environments. * Execute comprehensive software testing within the Mission Simulation environment (e.g., VBS4, custom C++ modules) to identify bugs, performance bottlenecks, and tactical inaccuracies. * Design and establish foundational QA testing protocols, test plans, and bug-tracking workflows from scratch. * Collaborate directly with the software engineering team, translating simulator performance issues into clear, actionable technical feedback and bug reports. * Validate software updates and new releases on the physical simulator setups to guarantee stability before they are deployed for customer demos or tactical training. * Reproduce complex software and integration bugs systematically to assist developers in rapid resolution. ## Related Videos - [How I Built QA from Scratch in a Scaling Startup - no fluff real life story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2041-how-i-built-qa-from-scratch-in-a-scaling-startup-no-fluff-real-life-story) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [JavaScript?
