About this role
Hi! This is the Flipper team.
We are the creators of Flipper Zero https://flipper.net — a portable device for tech enthusiasts and engineers. It's a gadget with an awesome community that brings together millions of people around the world.
We're building a new product — Flipper One https://blog.flipper.net/flipper-one-we-need-your-help/. It's a full-featured ARM-based computer running Linux in a compact form factor, powered by the Rockchip RK3576 SoC.
We're looking for a Linux Test Engineer to ensure the quality of Flipper One https://blog.flipper.net/flipper-one-we-need-your-help/ by combining automated and hands-on hardware testing. You'll work closely with the firmware team to build reliable test automation while validating the product on real devices in our London office.
Responsibilities:
- Validate firmware and software functionality on real hardware, identifying defects and ensuring reliable product behavior
- Investigate Linux system behavior, collect logs, analyze failures, and help engineers reproduce and resolve issues
- Design, develop, and maintain test suites for Flipper One using Python-based testing frameworks
Requirements:
- Deep practical experience with Linux: shell, systemd/services, logs, permissions, networking, processes, cron, SSH, package managers
- Ability to write Bash scripts and use standard Linux tools: grep, awk, sed, curl, journalctl, netstat/ss, top/htop, ps, lsof, tcpdump or similar
- Understanding of networking stack at TCP/IP level: Ethernet, IP, TCP/UDP, routing, sockets, ports, DNS, DHCP, ARP, MTU, packet loss, retransmissions, latency, timeouts, and connection states
- Ability to work from our London office, especially during the initial stage of the project
Nice-to-haves:
- Experience with IoT, embedded, networking, telecom, infrastructure, cloud, or device-related systems
- Experience with tools such as ModemManager, NetworkManager, mmcli, nmcli, QMI/MBIM, or AT commands
What we offer:
- Workplace in our own stand-alone office located in Design District, London, near North Greenwich Station (Jubilee line).
- You will be provided with all the necessary equipment for a comfortable working environment.
- Benefits such as VHI, corporate sports, foreign language courses, and therapy sessions.
- A five-day workweek with a flexible start of the working day.

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Flipper, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
Published 14 July 2026, last checked about a month ago. A posting stops being advertised here 90 days after the employer published it, and one the employer takes down is marked closed rather than quietly removed.
