The main mission of a test and validation engineer is to verify if a new IT product (software, equipment, system, etc.) complies with requirements. For this, they must learn about the product specifications and standards that are imposed on it. To verify a product's compliance, the validation engineer will create different testing tools to specify and define all points to be checked. They must perform tests until each point is validated. Once all tests are completed, the validation engineer will report the results precisely. Then, they deliver the validated IT product (software, equipment, system, etc.) to the client and provide support to ensure its proper functioning. The test and validation engineer works within study management teams or the technical department. Even though teamwork is very present, the validation engineer must be autonomous and rigorous. They must have good interpersonal skills to be able to discuss, in a thoughtful and diplomatic way, with the development team about potential errors in order to reach a solution quickly and provide the client with a product that perfectly meets their expectations.
