About the role
- We are looking for a Manufacturing Test Engineer to design, build, and scale robust test systems that ensure product quality from early hardware development through high-volume manufacturing and fleet deployment.
- This role sits at the intersection of hardware engineering, manufacturing, and quality-owning test strategy, infrastructure, and execution to catch design, process, workmanship, and component-level issues before products reach the field.
- You will develop automated, data-driven test frameworks and diagnostic systems that enable fast bring-up, high coverage, and scalable production operations.
Responsibilities
- Develop scalable hardware test frameworks covering functional, system-level, and end-of-line testing
- Architect modular test systems that can evolve from prototype builds to high-volume manufacturing
- Design and implement functional test systems (electrical, mechanical, system-level validation)
- Develop automated test scripts and sequences using Python or similar languages
- Build diagnostic tools to quickly isolate failures and reduce debug time
- Design defects
- Configure and manage work orders and test flows within MES or manufacturing systems
- Ensure traceability of test results to serial numbers, components, and build configurations
- Partner with manufacturing teams to optimize throughput and minimize test time
- Lead test bring-up for new products during EVT/DVT/PVT builds
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
- 5+ years of experience in manufacturing test, hardware validation, or production engineering
- Hands-on experience with test equipment (oscilloscopes, DAQs, power supplies, sensors, etc.)
- Familiarity with MES systems, work order configuration, and manufacturing workflows
- Experience with hardware-software integration and embedded systems testing
- Knowledge of diagnostics, failure analysis, and reliability testing methodologies
- Experience with data analysis tools (Python, SQL, or similar)\
- Risk Management: Proven track record of identifying, managing, and mitigating risks in large, complex programs.
Nice to have
- Strong experience with automated test development and scripting (Python preferred)
Skills
- Anomaly detection
- Failure classification
- Predictive insights on test and field data
Benefits
- Integrate test equipment (DAQs, sensors, vision systems, robotics interfaces, etc.)
- Debug early build issues and rapidly iterate on test coverage and methods
Company info
- At Bedrock, we're moving AI out of the lab and into the real world.
- Our team is composed of industry veterans who helped launch Waymo, scaled Segment to a $3.2B acquisition, and grew Uber Freight to $5B in revenue.
- Today, we're deploying autonomous systems on heavy construction machinery across the country, accelerating project schedules of billion-dollar infrastructure projects and improving safety on job sites.
- Backed by $350M in funding, we're working quickly to close the gap between America's surging demand for housing, data centers, manufacturing hubs, and the construction industry's growing labor shortage.
- This is where algorithms meet steel-toed boots.
- You'll collaborate with construction veterans and world-class engineers to solve physical-world problems that simulations can't touch.
- If you're ready to apply cutting-edge technology to solve meaningful problems alongside a talented team-we'd love to have you join us.
