## About the role

FieldAI ’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 3+ years in QA, system test, integration test or release validation for robotics, autonomous vehicles, drones, industrial automation or another hardware-software product
- Experience planning and running structured test campaigns: writing test plans, executing against acceptance criteria, tracking coverage and reporting status to stakeholders
- Hands-on comfort with physical systems. You are willing to walk a robot through a building for hours, work on your feet, and be safety-conscious around moving machinery
- Strong written communication. You write bug reports and status updates that others can act on without a follow-up conversation
- Fluency with Jira or a similar tracker, and with a disciplined bug lifecycle: triage, severity, reproduction, verification, closure
- Comfort on Linux, in a terminal and over SSH: installing builds, pulling logs, checking a process, running a command-line tool
