Key Responsibilities Manually execute V&V test protocols, including functional, reliability, and performance testing on robotic platforms. Physically set up test fixtures, specialized equipment, and test samples according to approved procedures. Accurately record and report test data in real‑time, maintaining strict adherence to Good Documentation Practices (GDP). Partner with R&D during prototype builds; assist in the physical assembly and teardown of design iterations and engineering studies. Identify, document, and immediately escalate nonconformance or unexpected test results to the engineering team. Support the hands‑on investigation and root cause analysis of physical test failures. Ensure all lab activities comply with FDA and ISO 13485 standards, keeping all test records and logs audit‑ready.

Strong understanding of GDP; experience with test execution in a regulated environment (FDA or ISO). Ability to clearly explain testing results and collaborate with Manufacturing and R&D teams. A "tinker" mindset with the ability to work around complex electromechanical systems and software‑driven devices. Work Environment and Schedule Fully onsite: This role is 100% onsite in San Jose; it is not a remote or desk‑only position. Physical requirements: Work is performed in an R&D lab (not a cleanroom) and requires standing for extended periods and manually handling robotic equipment. Overtime: Candidates must be open to working overtime as needed to meet project deadlines. #J-18808-Ljbffr Aviso, LLC
