Test Systems Engineer: Automated Robotics Lab & Dashboards

Dexmate Inc.; United States; On-site; USD 85,000 - 115,000; Full time

Job summary

Dexmate Inc. is seeking a Test Systems Engineer to design and maintain automated test stations for our robotics lab. You will build rigs, data logging, and dashboards so durability tests run around the clock and reflect real customer use.

You will collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and software teams, qualify test stations for accuracy, and support test engineers while ensuring safety and reliability across dozens of modules.

Qualifications

• BS in Mechatronics, Mechanical, Electrical, or Robotics Engineering.
• 3+ years building test equipment, automation, or robotic systems.
• Proficiency in Python for automation and data handling; Linux CLI comfortable.
• Hands-on experience with sensors, motors, and DAQ/PLC systems.
• Familiar with mechanical assembly and safety considerations.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain automated test stations and rigs combining mechanical fixtures, motors, sensors, PLCs or microcontrollers, and software
• Build data acquisition and logging systems, and dashboards that track test status and results across all test stations
• Automate long-duration durability and duty-cycle tests to run unattended overnight and on weekends, with alerts and automatic shutdown on failure — scaling to dozens of modules on test in parallel
• Qualify every test station for accuracy, repeatability, and stability before its data is trusted
• Design simple interface boards and harnesses for test setups, and work with equipment suppliers on custom stations
• Run whole-robot functional tests: mobility, manipulation, payload, terrain, and continuous operation
• Develop and run working-condition tests based on real customer scenarios and environments
• Assemble, configure, and prepare robots and subsystems for testing
• Keep the lab running: equipment setup and calibration, spare parts and inventory, and lab safety (battery handling, robot motion safety zones)
• Support mechanical and electrical test engineers in executing their test plans
