Software QA Engineer – start your career here

Systematic Copenhagen | Defence Business Unit

Would you like to launch your career in software quality assurance, working on a next-generation training platform for modern Defence operations? At Systematic, we are expanding our Defence Aspire team in Copenhagen and are looking for a newly graduated candidate to join us as a Software QA Engineer.

The job
This position offers a structured introduction to software testing and quality assurance. You will be introduced to the discipline through close cooperation with experienced colleagues, and you will build your competencies across each phase of the development process. Testing and quality assurance take place throughout the entire feature development lifecycle, giving you exposure to requirements analysis, test design, and release activities alike. Prior professional experience is welcome but not required; we're looking for the right mindset and a genuine interest in testing.

In short, your key tasks will be to:

• Analyse requirements, contribute to test strategy design, and develop test cases under the guidance of experienced testers.
• Manually test on-premise and cloud solutions.
• Engage with developers, product owners, designers, and project managers to understand each assignment.
• Support the principle that quality is built in from the beginning of the development process.
• Participate in test activities such as system testing, bug hunts, and integration testing.

Joining the team
We recently established a new development team in Copenhagen which requires a Software QA Engineer to support its growth. You will join a growing Defence Business Unit, working on solutions that support critical decision-making. Aspire is our youngest Defence product, with strong adoption and an exciting roadmap ahead. You'll collaborate closely with colleagues in Copenhagen and Aarhus, as well as teams across Europe.

Your qualifications

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, completed or expected to be completed soon.
• No prior professional testing experience is required. We're looking for motivation and the right mindset above all.
• Knowledge of software design and architecture, and of test design techniques.
• A genuine interest in software testing and quality assurance, with clear motivation to build a career in the field.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to contribute constructively to a team.

It's a bonus if you have prior experience from graduate programmes, student positions, internships, or company projects, as well as familiarity with Jira, Xray, or R4J, Linux CLI, Bash or PowerShell, Docker, or Git, or if you hold (or are pursuing) the ISTQB Foundation Certification. None of this is required.
You should expect to travel to our Aarhus headquarters around 20 days a year.

Please note that you must be able to present a clean criminal record and have lived in a NATO and/or EU country for the past seven years, as we work with security-classified projects. Read more here .
