Power & Performance Tester - Spring, TX (10-Month Contract)We're hiring a Power & Performance Tester in Spring, TX for a 10-month contract with a global technology company. If you're a PC enthusiast who loves digging into how systems actually work-not just checking boxes-this is your chance to work on real product validation for a major brand.
What You'll Do:- Test and validate new software releases to ensure they don't negatively impact battery life or system performance
- Analyze power consumption behavior across PC platforms and identify software-related issues
- Work with new technology inputs from engineering teams to assess how upcoming software solutions affect device performance
- Conduct cross-functional checks to ensure new software doesn't conflict with existing system components
- Go beyond surface-level testing-dig into results, identify anomalies, and clearly communicate risks to engineering teams
- Apply hands-on PC hardware knowledge to investigate system behavior and performance patterns
What You Need:- Strong interest or in gaming, building custom PCs, or hardware tinkering
- Familiarity with PC hardware components and how systems behave under different workloads
- Detail-oriented mindset-you enjoy finding root causes, not just validating steps
- Comfortable working hands-on with hardware and software across PC platforms
- Ability to document findings clearly and collaborate with engineering and software teams
- Understanding of Windows OS environments and general PC software ecosystems
Nice to Have (But Not Required):- Experience with performance benchmarking tools (PCMark, 3DMark, HWInfo, Intel Power Gadget, etc.)
- Knowledge of power management concepts (CPU/GPU throttling, Windows power profiles, thermal design)
- Basic scripting or automation skills (PowerShell, Python, batch tools) for running repeatable tests
- Experience with pre-release or beta software testing
- Familiarity with OEM PC ecosystems, BIOS/UEFI, or manufacturer-specific power management tools
- Strong documentation skills for test results, issue summaries, and risk assessments
- Comfort working in lab or engineering environments (handling test hardware, swapping components, running scenario-based tests)
Why This Role?This isn't typical software testing. You'll be working on a key initiative that directly impacts product performance and customer experience for a major PC manufacturer. If you're the type who builds PCs for fun, tweaks settings to squeeze out better performance, or just loves understanding how hardware and software interact, this role lets you turn that passion into real work with a global tech company.
The Details:10-month contract in Spring, TX. This is hands-on, technical work that requires someone who genuinely enjoys this stuff-not just someone looking for any testing job.
