Neros is vertically integrating production of unmanned defense systems in the United States, securing the autonomous supply chain. Are you with us? Backed by Sequoia.
About the role
As a Quality Engineer at Neros, you’ll own electronics build quality across the factory as we scale production, from PCBAs and harnesses to battery packs. You’ll be the first call when an electronics issue shows up on the line, working with Manufacturing and Engineering to contain it, find the root cause, and make sure every unit survives and performs in contested environments. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Own day-to-day electronics build quality across PCBAs, soldering, harnesses, cables, and battery packs, act as first responder for line issues, disposition defects, contain suspect product, and run electronics MRB
- Lead electronics root cause investigations in partnership with Engineering and verify that corrective actions hold on the line
- Track FPY, defect Pareto, scrap/rework, and escapes, use SPC to detect process drift and run regular build-quality reviews to drive top issues to closure
- Partner with Manufacturing and Engineering to add data-driven in-line checks and error-proofing, reduce inspection as processes prove capable, and feed defect data back into design for quality
- Create and maintain inspection plans and first article inspections for new builds, board revisions, and process changes, review work instructions and inspection criteria for clear, objective, verifiable requirements
- Certify inspectors and operators to IPC workmanship standards and own and audit the factory ESD control plan
