Senior Manufacturing Software Engineer, Matterport

Senior Manufacturing Software Engineer, Matterport Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer – Software (SW) responsible for architecting, developing, and sustaining the software, automation, and data systems that power Matterport’s manufacturing test infrastructure from early NPI through high-volume production. Location & Work Arrangement Sunnyvale, CA – in‑office Monday through Thursday; work from home on Friday. Responsibilities Define and own the software architecture for manufacturing test stations including traceability systems, data collection pipelines, device communication layers, and automation frameworks from NPI through high‑volume production. Architect and prototype modular test software frameworks including APIs, instrument abstraction layers, data logging schemas, versioning systems, and deployment pipelines; deliver critical station software ahead of EVT builds. Support root‑cause analysis of manufacturing test failures by analyzing test logs, system behavior, hardware performance, and process trends in collaboration with cross‑functional teams. Implement automated test software including device comms, result logging, production dashboards, and failure diagnostics; establish CI/CD and release flow to support structured EVT debug and ongoing software iteration. Partner with hardware, firmware, product, and manufacturing teams to define test requirements, station behavior, pass/fail criteria, and production release readiness. Develop and maintain tools for test sequencing, instrumentation control, results logging, traceability, and yield analysis. Harden test software for production: add robust error handling, retry/recovery logic, and comprehensive failure diagnostics; validate traceability and reporting pipelines; lock the software release process ahead of DVT exit. Drive structured software validation and qualification of test stations prior to deployment, including GR&R support, data review, uptime verification, and confirmation that error handling and pass/fail logic meet production requirements. Analyze production data to identify failure trends, systematic escapes, station issues, and opportunities to improve yield and test robustness. Lead software deployment to contract manufacturers: support multi‑line rollout, enable remote debug capabilities, establish monitoring and alerting infrastructure, build data pipeline scaling plan, and own the software sustainment process through PVT. Create and maintain documentation for test software, station architecture, validation results, debug procedures, and manufacturing release processes. Maintain release stability post‑launch: manage version control by line and site, lead software bug triage, support yield analysis, and drive rapid containment fixes in response to production escapes or field signals. Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree from an accredited, not for profit, in‑person university or college. 5+ years of experience in manufacturing test software development, test automation engineering, or production systems software for embedded hardware products. Strong programming and scripting skills in Python, C/C++, or similar languages; experience with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, and structured software release processes. Experience owning software architecture and development for automated manufacturing test stations, from early NPI prototyping through production‑hardened release. Experience with instrumentation control, test sequencing, logging, and failure handling. Experience analyzing production test data and logs to support root‑cause analysis and process improvement. Familiarity with manufacturing test concepts such as yield, traceability, station validation, uptime, and throughput. Ability to work cross‑functionally with hardware, firmware, operations, and factory teams. Strong written and verbal communication skills. Ability to travel internationally up to 25% of the time. Preferred Qualifications and Skills Experience with CI/CD pipelines, automated deployment workflows, or structured release processes for manufacturing test software. Experience managing version control strategies for multi‑line or multi‑site software deployments at contract manufacturers. Familiarity with GR&R, false failure reduction, station repeatability, and test coverage optimization. Experience with database logging, production dashboards, or test data pipeline development. Experience working with contract manufacturers or overseas production sites. Familiarity with PCBAs, sensors, embedded devices, and common production instrumentation. Experience building monitoring, alerting, or remote debug infrastructure for production test systems. Experience with software architecture for scalable test frameworks or manufacturing station platforms. Fluency in Mandarin is a plus. Benefits Competitive salary range: $120,000 – $200,000 per year.
