TL;DR · Manufacturing Test Engineer, Electrical/Mechanical

JOB TITLE: Manufacturing Test Engineer, Electrical/Mechanical The Manufacturing Test Engineer, Electrical/Mechanical joins the Dive-XL team to support the production of an extra-large autonomous underwater vehicle. This role involves conducting full-vehicle dry and wet factory acceptance testing in an onsite test tank to ensure product readiness. Key responsibilities include troubleshooting electromechanical failures, designing test rigs and fixtures, and developing troubleshooting runbooks. The engineer will optimize test procedures, provide design-for-test feedback, and automate sequences using Python and AI coding tools. Required technical skills include experience with oscilloscopes, DMMs, and programmable power supplies, alongside proficiency in communication protocols like USB, Ethernet, and CAN. The role addresses the challenge of establishing a new production line for complex subsea robotics, ensuring reliable performance of sensors, actuators, and high-voltage systems within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

What you'll do

  • Conduct full-vehicle dry and wet factory acceptance testing (FAT) as the primary test conductor.
  • Serve as the subject-matter expert for mechanical and electromechanical checks including cabling, propulsion, and control surfaces.
  • Identify and triage failed test steps to determine if they are defects, procedure errors, or missing upstream steps.
  • Troubleshoot vehicle-level failures hands-on and lead data-driven root cause analysis to implement fixes.
  • Design and maintain the test equipment, rigs, and fixtures used for dry and wet testing.
  • Write troubleshooting runbooks and train technicians to execute procedures that match the as-built vehicle.
  • Use Python and AI tools to automate test sequences, parse logs, and build performance dashboards.
  • Provide design-for-test (DFT) feedback to the product definition team to catch problems earlier in assembly.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical, electromechanical, electrical, or computer engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 3+ years of relevant experience, ideally designing tests for electromechanical hardware in a manufacturing environment.
  • Experience with hardware testing, automated test systems, and bench equipment like oscilloscopes, DMMs, and programmable power supplies.
  • Proficiency in running programmed scripts in Python, MATLAB, shell, or similar languages.
  • Knowledge of communication protocols including USB, Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, PCIe, HDMI, and CAN.
  • Experience with complex electromechanical systems, sensors, actuators, and electrical components.
  • Ability to write and run full system test plans on fast product development timelines.
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
