About the role

  • With a start-up spirit yet long-established experience, Bot Auto has the most seasoned team that has delivered several world's first and world's only.
  • Join us and turn your dream into something RUNNING.
  • You will play a dual role: - First, as a Manufacturing & Integration Engineer: Ensuring our autonomous kits are perfectly retrofitted onto truck chassis.

Responsibilities

  • Truck Retrofitting & Production Development (From Design to Line)
  • This core area focuses on "building the machine." You will ensure the transition from engineering prototypes to scalable, high-quality retrofitted trucks.
  • Production Equipment & Tooling: Design and implement specialized manufacturing tools, jigs, fixtures, and End-of-Line (EOL) testing equipment to improve efficiency.
  • Process Engineering (SOP & PFMEA): Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for vehicle retrofitting. Lead PFMEA sessions to identify and mitigate potential risks in the assembly process.
  • NPI & DFM: Collaborate with design teams (New Product Introduction) to ensure manufacturability (DFM) and review electrical/mechanical designs for smooth integration.
  • AD Sensor Diagnosis: Perform deep-dive root cause analysis on LiDAR, Camera, and Radar hardware/software issues (e.g., data dropouts).
  • Drive-by-Wire (DbW) Support: Troubleshoot complex interaction issues between the autonomous system and truck chassis components like steering and braking actuators.
  • CAPA Implementation: Implement Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) based on recurring field issues to improve future vehicle iterations.
  • Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for vehicle retrofitting.
  • Lead PFMEA sessions to identify and mitigate potential risks in the assembly process.

Requirements

  • Technical Skills: * Proficiency in PFMEA and root cause analysis (RCA) methodologies.
  • Hands-on experience with CAD software (SolidWorks or AutoCAD) for fixture design.
  • 5+ years of experience in manufacturing, electrical, or systems engineering within the automotive or robotics industry.
  • Familiarity with autonomous driving sensors (LiDAR, Camera) and vehicle communication protocols ( CAN/CAN-FD, Ethernet).
  • Required:
  • Soft Skills: Strong communication skills to bridge the gap between shop-floor technicians and R&D engineers
  • a "hands-on" mindset.
  • Preferred:

Skills

  • Proficiency in PFMEA and root cause analysis (RCA) methodologies.
  • Solid understanding of vehicle electrical systems and the ability to read complex electrical diagrams.
  • Strong communication skills to bridge the gap between shop-floor technicians and R&D engineers; a "hands-on" mindset.
  • AD Knowledge: Familiarity with autonomous driving sensors (LiDAR, Camera) and vehicle communication protocols ( CAN/CAN-FD, Ethernet).
  • Soft
  • Experience in autonomous vehicle, electric vehicle (EVs), or robotic system manufacturing.
  • Familiarity with Python, MATLAB, or LabVIEW for data processing and automation scripting is a plus but not required.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret manufacturing data and performance metrics.
  • Knowledge of vehicle communication protocols (CAN, LIN, and Automotive Ethernet) and diagnostic tools for production testing.
  • Basic knowledge of vehicle electrical systems.
  • Knowledge of ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and automotive regulatory requirements.
  • Better to have basic knowledge of ISO 16750, SAE J1455

Benefits

  • Together, we share vision, we see and build miracles and we drive the future of transportation.
  • Fleet Health Monitoring: Support daily fleet operations by providing rapid response to vehicle-down situations, ensuring high uptime for our autonomous testing and logistics missions.
