Job Description: Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) - Revit and Civil 3D Install Team



Position Overview

We are looking for a motivated Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join the Revit and Civil 3D Install Team. This role focuses on Revit Installation testing, ensuring the quality, reliability, and stability of installer-related solutions and release deliveries.



As an SDET, you will collaborate with engineers and cross-functional partners to validate installer quality through test strategy, automation development, and risk assessment. You will ensure that Revit installation experiences—including install, upgrade, repair, and uninstall workflows—meet high-quality standards on Windows platforms.

Note: This is a test engineering role, not a pure software development position. The ideal candidate is passionate about software quality and desktop installation technologies, with solid knowledge of Windows OS fundamentals.



Responsibilities:

• Quality Culture: Contribute to a collaborative engineering team focused on quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.

• End-to-End Testing: Participate in requirements analysis, design review, test strategy definition, execution, defect tracking, and risk assessment for Revit Installation.

• Automation Development: Design, develop, and maintain automated test tools and cases for installer-related scenarios.

• Workflow Validation: Verify the reliability of workflows, including installation, upgrade, patching, repair, rollback, uninstallation, and version compatibility.

• Environmental Testing: Verify installer behavior across different Windows environments, system settings, user permissions, and machine states.

• Issue Investigation: Reproduce customer-reported or internal issues and work with developers to improve stability and usability.

• Process Optimization: Identify quality gaps and improve testing efficiency through better tooling and automation.

• Collaboration: Partner with software developers and global engineering teams to ensure high-quality product delivery.
  • **Only those lawfully authorized to work in the designated country associated with the position will be considered.**

  • **Please note that all Position start dates and duration are estimates and may be reduced or lengthened based upon a client’s business needs and requirements.**
