Integration Test Engineer (EU)

This is a remote position.

We are looking for a Test Engineer to join a team for developing a new Entry-Exit System to improve the border control of the European Union. 

About the Project

The Entry-Exit System (EES) will…

• Contribute to the modernisation of the external border management by improving the quality and efficiency of the external border controls of the Schengen Area;
  
• Help Member States dealing with ever increasing number of travellers to the EU without having to increase the number of border guards;
  
• Reinforce internal security and the fight against terrorism and serious crime;
  
• Systematically identify over-stayers (individuals remaining in the Schengen Area after the end of their authorised stay).
  

The EES will provide…

• Precise information in a rapid and automated way to border guards during border checks;
  
• Information to border guards on refusals of entry of nonEU nationals and enable refusals of entry to be checked electronically in the EES;
  
• Precise information to travellers on the maximum length of their authorised stay;
  
• Precise information on who is overstaying their authorised stay;
  
• Evidence-based support to visa policy.
  

As regards access for law enforcement purposes, the the EES will…

• Support the identification of terrorists, criminals as well as of suspects and victims of crime;
  
• Provide a record of travel histories of non-EU nationals including crime suspects, perpetrators or victims of crime. It would thus complement the information in the SIS.
