Husqvarna AB is seeking a **Perception Test Lead** to guide verification within Husqvarna Robotics in Huskvarna. In this hands-on technical leadership role, the lead establishes the overall test direction, coordinates team priorities, and takes responsibility for test deliveries in close collaboration with developers and system engineers. The work focuses on computer vision, AI-based perception, cameras, and depth estimation sensors across physical robotic products. Daily responsibilities include translating requirements into test strategies, combining physical robotic testing with automation, simulation, and sensor data analysis, identifying root causes, and communicating results, risks, and readiness to stakeholders. The role is based primarily **on-site in the Huskvarna office**. Candidates must hold a relevant **university degree in engineering**, robotics, computer science, electronics, or a related field, alongside at least five years of relevant experience in testing or developing perception, computer vision, robotics, autonomous systems, or similar embedded products. Essential skills include experience with computer vision and camera-based systems (such as object detection, classification, segmentation, or depth estimation), strong hands-on capability in Linux and ROS bag, test automation and scripting experience, and an understanding of embedded systems and hardware/software integration. Fluency in English is required; Python scripting and knowledge of Swedish are considered advantageous.
Do you enjoy hands-on technical leadership where you will set the verification direction, prioritise the team's work and take responsibility for test deliveries, while working closely with developers, system engineers and other test teams?
In this role, you will lead and support the team working with technologies such as computer vision, cameras, AI-based perception, depth estimation and and similar perception sensors, ensuring that they perform reliably in real-world environments.
Role Description
As Perception Test Lead, you will take ownership of how we verify Perception, from setting the overall test direction to prioritising and coordinating the team's work. You will work hands-on with our robotic products, combining physical testing with automation, simulation and sensor data to understand performance, identify issues and find root causes.
Together with development teams, you will turn technical challenges into effective testing, communicate results and risks to stakeholders and help evolve our test methods and capabilities.
You will also:
- Translate requirements, system behaviour and technical risks into effective test strategies and test cases.
- Combine testing on physical robotic products with automation, simulation and recorded sensor data.
- Communicate results, risks and readiness to stakeholders.
- Continuously improve our test methods, tools and automation capabilities.
Your profile
We are looking for someone who enjoys understanding complex technology and turning technical challenges into something that can be measured and verified. You are comfortable working hands-on while keeping the bigger picture in focus, setting priorities and providing direction to others. Most importantly, you want to own a technical area and influence how it is verified, rather than simply execute an existing test plan.
You have:
- At least 5 years of relevant experience within testing or development of perception, computer vision, robotics, autonomous systems or similar embedded products.
- A relevant university degree within engineering, robotics, computer science, electronics or a related field.
- Experience with computer vision and camera-based systems, such as object detection, classification, segmentation or depth estimation.
- Experience with test automation and scripting, preferably Python.
- Strong hands-on experience with Linux and ROS bag.
- A good understanding of embedded systems and hardware/software integration.
- Fluency in English is required, while Swedish is an advantage.
