Responsibilities
Hands-on testing and troubleshooting – commission, calibrate, and debug mechatronic systems, sensors, and motion assemblies. Create HIL/ bench rigs and collaborate to create statistical test plans to prove repeatability, reliability and report on performance
System understanding and improvement – analyse how sub-systems interact (mechanical, electrical, control, vision) and evaluate these based on customer requirements. Help identify and customize the design solution based on trade-offs in scope, performance or timeline. and propose design or process improvements
Data-driven validation – collect and analyse test data to quantify repeatability, reliability, and performance drift. Combine data with best practices to optimize complex or constrained hardware components to meet performance requirements
Design and build support – assist with CAD updates, prototype fabrication, wiring, and integration of hardware modules
Documentation and change control – maintain clear records of design revisions, test results, and issue tracking
Cross-functional collaboration – work alongside senior engineers in mechanical, electronics, and software teams to implement upgrades and fixes
