## About the role

You're the technical lead of our Production Engineering team. You're a senior hardware engineer the hardware team respects, the person who jumps in to root-cause a problem on a robot we need to ship, and the mentor who raises the bar for the engineers around you. You report to the Head of Manufacturing. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Bachelor's in Electrical, Mechanical, Computer or Mechatronics Engineering. A Master's is a plus
- Senior hardware engineering experience (typically 8+ years) designing, integrating and debugging complex electromechanical systems. You've owned hardware, not just the process that builds it
- Strong electrical fundamentals. You read schematics, use scopes and meters, and personally isolate root cause across power, PCBAs, sensors, actuators and communication interfaces
- A track record of driving recurring failures to permanent corrective action
- Hands-on DFM/DFT experience working with design engineering to make products buildable, testable and cost-effective
- Experience building test systems: fixtures, bring-up, end-of-line or automated test
