As our Test & Validation Engineer , you will be a critical link between Product Development and the real-world dairy environment, helping turn new product ideas into proven, market-ready solutions. Working across hardware, software and complete dairy farm systems, you will play a key role throughout the product development programme, from establishing what success looks like, through on-farm testing and validation, to providing the assurance that a product is ready for commercial release. You will work closely with the Product Managers, the role requires someone who can be nimble in their thinking, comfortable working in the field, and able to move quickly between technical detail and practical farm outcomes. A key part of the role will be establishing clear success criteria and validation measures for new products and product improvements, then objectively determining whether those criteria have been achieved. Your findings will directly influence product decisions, development priorities and the path to market release. You will also be responsible for clearly documenting and communicating test results and findings, ensuring knowledge is captured and transferred through to technical documentation, manuals, training material and commercial release. This is an opportunity to play a central role in testing, learning, improving and proving new products — ensuring WMS has the evidence and confidence needed to bring new technology to market.
