- Own hardware bring-up, integration, and validation of robotic systems from prototype through deployment readiness
- Define electrical, mechanical, and firmware interface requirements; identify integration risks and dependencies
- Debug hardware interfaces across vehicle controls, power distribution, motion control, sensors, and communication buses
- Develop test setups, bench rigs, diagnostic workflows, and wiring harnesses to validate integrated subsystems
- Use oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, and CAN tools to diagnose electrical, timing, and signal integrity issues
- Develop and execute validation procedures to stress-test battery, drivetrain, thermal, sensor, and controller subsystems
What they're looking for
- Hardware systems integration and vehicle bring-up
- Electrical debugging (signal integrity, timing, power issues)
- CAN, I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet, USB, GPIO protocol troubleshooting
- Lab equipment: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, power supplies
- Schematic reading, wiring diagrams, board documentation, mechanical drawings
- Python and Linux shell scripting for test automation
