  • Develop and manage production unit test processes that identify issues before products are deployed.
  • Build and own canary fleet testing processes, tools, and operational procedures.
  • Create and maintain test procedures, documentation, and engineering standards.
  • Analyze test results and provide actionable recommendations to improve hardware performance and reliability.
  • Lead root cause investigations on hardware failures and drive issues through resolution.
  • Partner with engineering and operations teams to align testing with real-world deployment conditions.
  • Build scalable test infrastructure, workflows, and tools from the ground up.
  • Support continuous improvement of hardware validation processes.

Job Requirements

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

  • Experience with data acquisition systems (DAQs), sensors, telemetry, or logging software.
  • Proficiency with Python, Git, and Linux.
  • Experience working with power electronics, battery systems, or high-voltage hardware.
  • Experience supporting both research and development and production manufacturing environments.

What You'll Bring

  • A hands-on approach to solving complex hardware challenges.
  • Strong ownership and accountability from concept through execution.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong communication and technical documentation abilities.
  • A passion for building scalable testing systems that improve product quality and reliability.

Why Join?
