Test Support Engineer
Our client is looking for a line support engineer to support hardware testing across manufacturing lines and service locations. This role spans testing across components (such as compute, sensor units), car (systems), and care (service). As the primary engineer, you will be responsible for troubleshooting and debugging issues to ensure we meet our aggressive scaling targets. You will use your knowledge of electronics manufacturing and software to resolve issues across different domains—firmware flashing, networking, debugging python scripts, linux expertise to list a few. We are looking for an engineer who can easily switch between component-level and system-level testing. The ability to work independently and organize work around schedules and critical deadlines is a definite plus. We are looking for an engineer who is curious, enthusiastic, and not afraid to embrace new technologies!
