Zusammenfassung

TAR in San Francisco is seeking a Hardware Test Engineer for its robotics program. You will stand up the test function from zero and own rigs, instrumentation, and reliability data, deciding when a robot is ready to leave the shop.

You’ll design fixtures, implement test plans for functional and environmental testing, and own the data pipeline and dashboards to track failures and fixes as you scale field deployments.

Qualifikationen

• 4+ years in hardware test, validation, or reliability engineering on robotic, vehicle, or electromechanical systems.
• Track record designing and building your own test rigs and fixtures, CAD and GD&T fluency.
• Instrumentation and DAQ depth with load cells, strain gauges, thermocouples, accelerometers and encoders.
• Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals and root cause methods beyond simple failure reporting.
• Experience with accelerated life and durability testing.
• Python or equivalent scripting for test automation and data analysis.
• Good judgment to know when a scrappy rig suffices and when to build the real thing.

Aufgaben

• Design and build test harnesses, rigs, and fixtures to test robotic systems end to end.
• Create executable test plans for functional, durability, and environmental testing with SOPs.
• Instrument machines and own DAQ and data pipeline behind them.
• Run environmental testing: high temperature, thermal cycling, dust, vibration, humidity, UV.
• Reproduce, isolate, and drive fixes with design team support.
• Build reliability models from data and plan sample sizes.
• Automate test execution, reporting, and dashboards.
• Qualify machines for field deployment and assist end-of-line tests as fleet grows.
