What they're looking for

  • What matters is strong technical depth, the ability to problem-solve quickly on your feet in unpredictable field environments, and the trust you build with engineering teams

  • Hands-on experience in test engineering, embedded systems, robotics, aerospace, automotive, or similar hardware domains
  • Hands-on experience running test campaigns, data acquisition, building test infrastructure, or validating hardware
  • Basic proficiency in software and networking
  • High-level system design understanding—how software, firmware, and hardware interact end-to-end and bridge the gap between theoretical design and real-world operational failures
