- Develop and execute structured test plans to validate new platform functionality, performance, and reliability
- Coordinate and lead cross-functional build and integration events with Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, and Systems teams
- Provide Design-For-Manufacturing and Design-For-Test feedback to ensure new platforms are built for quality and scale
- Develop and maintain comprehensive platform documentation including drawings, schematics, BOMs, build instructions, and test reports
