Partner with vendors, CMs, and manufacturing teams to support first-article builds, audit build quality, review process performance, and drive corrective actions
Establish traceability requirements for parts, builds, calibration data, and installation workflows to ensure scalable, auditable operations
Author detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for integration, installation, QA, and first-power-on workflows to ensure repeatability and safety
Collaborate closely with vehicle teams to ensure seamless installation on new platforms, including wiring, power distribution, CAN/fiber routing, and compute mounting requirements
Analyze hardware failures, collect field feedback, and drive reliability improvements across mechanical, electrical, and thermal domains
Perform structured root-cause analysis on integration or manufacturing issues, documenting findings and driving cross-functional resolution
Support development of tools, fixtures, automation, and inspection methods to improve build consistency, integration throughput, and quality
Mentor technicians and cross-functional partners on integration best practices, QA workflows, safety procedures, and validation methodologies

Proven experience developing or executing integration SOPs, build-quality checks, validation frameworks, or QA procedures for complex systems
Proficiency with mechanical and electrical diagnostic tools (multimeters, oscilloscopes, CAN analyzers, alignment or measurement systems)
Experience interpreting schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings, and sensor/compute specifications
Solid foundation in Linux and scripting (bash, Python, or similar) for validation, automation, or data/logging workflows
Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with hardware design, manufacturing, test, and operations teams
Excellent documentation and organization skills with a focus on repeatability and traceable, auditable processes
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Systems Engineering, or equivalent experience
Preferred
Experience integrating multi-sensor perception systems (cameras, LiDAR, radar, IMU) or compute platforms in automotive or robotic systems
Familiarity with fleet or production system bring-up (first article builds, pilot runs, or manufacturing engineering)
Background in hardware reliability testing, environmental validation, or durability engineering
Working knowledge of vehicle systems, including 12V/48V power, CAN, LIN, Ethernet, and thermal constraints
Experience working with external vendors, contract manufacturers, or integration partners
Ability to architect fixtures, jigs, and validation tools for repeatable integration workflows
