About the role

  • The mission is simple to state and hard to do: catch it here, not in the field.
  • That is how we fulfill our promise of a world-class home robot people genuinely love.
  • Your work is the difference between a customer who trusts their robot and one who doesn't.

Responsibilities

  • Design, fabricate, and iterate electromechanical test rigs, fixtures, and automated setups that reproduce field failure modes and stress our designs to failure
  • Build accelerated life, fatigue, vibration and shock, and temperature and humidity tests across motors, mechanisms, and electronics
  • Partner with reliability engineers to translate physics of failure and field insight into representative test methods
  • Support root cause failure analysis by designing the apparatus and experiments that isolate failure mechanisms
  • Create and maintain CAD models, drawings, and documentation for all test equipment
  • Scale and maintain the reliability lab as our fleet, hardware versions, and test volume grow
  • Work cross-functionally with mechanical, electrical, software, quality, production, and supply chain teams to close the loop from potential failure to design fix
  • 2+ years of hardware design engineering experience, ideally on a physical product that has shipped in volume
  • Proven ability to build, fabricate, and rapidly iterate physical prototypes and test setups

Requirements

  • Technical degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics, or a related hardware discipline
  • Proficiency in CAD

Nice to have

  • Working proficiency with a scripting language such as Python for test automation and data handling
  • Exposure to reliability and test concepts such as accelerated testing, fatigue, life testing, DOE, or FMEA is a plus
  • Comfort with a fast-paced, startup atmosphere where you take ownership of ambiguous problems
  • High level of maturity, ownership, and pride in your work
  • You are genuinely motivated to help those around you
  • You love diagnosing complex technical issues
  • You are excited to do great work

Compensation

  • Base: $120,000 - $200,000 per annum.
  • Actual Compensation will depend on skills, experience and qualifications.
  • Base Salary is one part of the total compensation package.

Benefits

  • The role is also eligible for equity through the company's discretionary equity program, along with a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental and vision coverage access to a 401(k) plan.
