The Job
Design, build and validate hardware and software solutions for electromechanical factory test systems. These systems will facilitate product calibration and testing from the prototype stage through to mass production.
Develop Python-based test scripts and integrate hardware interfaces (sensors, actuators, motion systems)
Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, firmware, and manufacturing engineering teams to define test strategies and deploy robust, scalable tools across multiple production sites to ensure projects are delivered successfully and on time
Build and support internal tools and services for collecting, storing, and analyzing manufacturing data (e.g., calibration results, EMS logs, configuration and test data)
Apply data science tools to extract meaningful insights from manufacturing performance data and feed that back into design, quality, and operational decision-making
Continuously improve our development, testing and deployment processes to streamline software releases across our global factories
You
BS in Robotics, Mechatronics, or other Engineering discipline with professional experience combining hardware design and software integration
Experience developing and implementing computer vision and machine learning algorithms
Have strong proficiency in Python, including experience designing or supporting test jigs, fixtures, or automation tools that are deployed in manufacturing environments
Good understanding of software integration with embedded systems, electrical, and mechanical engineering and comfortable working cross functionally
Take pride in building robust, maintainable systems—and you’re not afraid to dive into a prototype setup to debug issues on the line
Communicate clearly, proactively manage projects and multiple priorities, and thrive in environments where quick decision-making and knowledge sharing are key
Bonus Skills
Experience working with manufacturing teams on complex products including collaborating with 3rd party contract manufacturers and new product introduction (NPI) build cycles
Experience developing for and maintaining production-grade code that is shared across teams
Proficient in 3D CAD (OnShape preferred) and mechanical design
Full stack web development, including React/JS, DevOps, Docker, and microservices
Experience with C or C++ on microcontrollers
