As a Validation Engineer, you'll work at the intersection of robotics, embedded systems, and next-generation automation. You'll help move innovative technologies from engineering development to production, solve complex technical challenges, and ensure our products perform where it matters most: in the field.
This hands-on role offers meaningful ownership, broad engineering exposure, and the chance to shape how we validate and bring emerging technologies to market.
What You'll Do- Own Product Validation: Develop and execute integration and validation strategies for embedded hardware, software, and firmware, from early prototypes through production readiness.
- Solve Complex Engineering Challenges: Investigate hardware, firmware, and communication issues, working closely with multidisciplinary design teams to drive root-cause resolution.
- Build and Improve Test Capabilities: Design test procedures, develop fixtures, and enhance laboratory environments to improve verification efficiency and reliability.
- Support Manufacturing Scale-Up: Develop production test methods and collaborate with manufacturing partners to ensure consistent quality.
- Drive Product Excellence: Identify reliability, performance, and manufacturability improvements through hands-on testing and engineering analysis.
- Collaborate Beyond the Lab: Partner with engineering, program management, and customers to support product releases, special deployments, and field investigations.
What You BringRequired
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- 2+ years of hands-on integration and validation experience with embedded hardware and software or robotics products.
- Strong troubleshooting skills using oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, and laboratory test equipment.
- Experience developing and executing requirement-based, HIL- and SIL-based test procedures and documenting technical findings.
- Working knowledge of wired and wireless communication technologies, including Ethernet, BLE, Wi-Fi, CAN, or LTE.
- Python scripting skills for test utilities, data analysis, and improving test efficiency.
- Strong problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical teams.
Nice to Have- Experience with Jama, TestRail, Jira, or similar engineering tools.
- Experience with CAN, CANopen, J1939, or industrial communication systems.
- Familiarity with functional safety standards such as IEC 61508 or ISO 26262.
- Experience with environmental, reliability, or EMI/EMC testing.
- Exposure to manufacturing test processes and production environments.
Compensation & BenefitsBase salary range: $120,000-$150,000, based on experience and location.
Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision insurance; unlimited PTO; stock options; 3% 401(k) match, paid holidays, and parental leave.
Application window: Applications accepted through the end of December 2026. This date will be updated if the window is extended.
