Hardware Test Engineer

Motive Workforce

We're supporting an innovative technology company building next-generation hardware, and we're hiring Test Engineers to stand up our hardware testing capability from scratch. This is a hands‑on role with real ownership: you'll design and build the HITL systems, production test processes, and canary fleet infrastructure that keep our products reliable before they ever reach a customer. If you like building things that don't exist yet and owning them end to end, read on. What you'll do Design, build, and maintain Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test systems across multiple hardware platforms Develop production unit test processes that catch issues before deployment Build and own canary fleet testing tools, processes, and operational procedures Create test procedures, documentation, and engineering standards Analyze test data and turn it into actionable reliability improvements Lead root cause investigations on hardware failures and drive them to resolution Partner with Engineering and Operations to align testing with real-world conditions Build scalable test infrastructure and workflows from the ground up What you'll bring Bachelor's in Electrical, Mechanical, or a related engineering field — or equivalent hands‑on experience Experience designing, building, and operating hardware test systems A track record developing test procedures, documentation, and validation methodologies Strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis on complex hardware Comfort reading code, writing scripts, and working in Git A self‑directed builder who sets priorities and creates process independently Nice to have DAQs, sensors, telemetry, or logging software Python, Git, and Linux proficiency Power electronics, battery systems, or high‑voltage hardware Experience spanning both R&D and production manufacturing You'll build a test engineering function from the ground up — shaping the infrastructure, standards, and processes that future engineering teams will rely on. Your work will directly move the needle on product reliability, manufacturing quality, and customer success. #J-18808-Ljbffr
