  • Assemble, test, and debug initial prototypes

  • Work closely with firmware and mechanical engineers to define connectors, pinouts, and physical constraints.

  • Develop specifications and accelerated test plans to validate the product for its lifetime

  • Interface with PCB fabricators and component suppliers to ensure timely delivery and DFM

Qualifications

  • Technical degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent

  • 5+ years of experience (or equivalent "hard tech" projects) building complex electromechanical systems and sensors
