Robotics Test Engineer

About the Role

Join a growing autonomous transportation team as a Robotics Test Engineer, helping build the device bring-up and testing infrastructure needed to integrate vehicles into a modular autonomy stack. This hands-on role focuses on validating real systems in production environments.

What You'll Do

• Create processes and software for flashing, bringing up, and testing vehicle devices across multiple manufacturers.

• Debug software and hardware integration issues with technicians, electrical engineers, and robotics engineers.

• Build hardware-in-the-loop tests for actuation, burn-in, and bench testing.

• Develop technician-facing tools for test visualization, deployment, execution, and results tracking.

• Establish scalable processes for integrating new devices with an autonomous software stack.

What We're Looking For

• Five or more years of robotics or autonomy test engineering experience, including end-to-end test environments for physical systems.

• Proficiency in C++, Python, and Linux.

• Experience building shared test frameworks that help controls, planning, systems, or autonomy teams validate software.

• Background in autonomous vehicles, robotics, or similarly complex autonomous systems.

• Experience with automated test frameworks, integration testing, validation infrastructure, and hardware/software integration or device bring-up.

• Hands-on understanding of sensors, LiDAR, actuators, networking, communications, and controls. Hardware-in-the-loop or bench testing experience is valuable.

• Bachelor's degree in robotics, electrical engineering, computer science, or a related engineering field.
