About the role
The Frankfurt team is responsible to test the latest communication chips from Qualcomm in the various European networks to ensure our chips are working no matter which operator or infrastrcuture equipment (E//, Nokia, Huawei) and which frequency bands or technology (GSM, UMTS, LTE & 5G) are used.
We are testing prototype phones running Android. Most of the testing is automated – tester has to upgrade software, has to make sure automation is set up correctly and runs nicely and the right test environment is found. The tester has to observe and report any issues during test execution in a daily report and has to upload all logs collected to a server.
Some tests are e.g.: Upload / Download speed under different network / test conditions. Call success and retention rate while driving.
Testing is done in Frankfurt and sourroundings ~ 40% of time and 60% of time elsewhere in Europe.
Business trips usually start on Sunday evening / early Monday morning and end Friday afternoon.
Most testing is done in test vans (VW Bus / Mercedes Sprinter). Professional driver services do the driving.Tester is sitting in back with laptop and multiple phones.
We work in small teams (2-3 people) – whereas the consultant is usually the only person on test site – the other folks guide on test execution and are analyzing in back office the failures and escalate the failures to development teams.
Training is done on the job.
