> Senior engineer responsible for triaging complex fleet hardware issues, reproducing failures in the lab, leading cross-subsystem root-cause investigations, and driving validated design improvements. Requires 10+ years of hardware, test, or systems validation experience across multiple domains, plus strong diagnostic and technical leadership skills.

## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Lead triage of high-severity hardware issues within the deployed fleet across compute, controls, networking, and sensor systems.
- Drive end-to-end root-cause investigations across subsystem boundaries, from initial field report through confirmed root cause.
- Develop novel analysis methods and lab reproduction setups to recreate field issues and validate fixes.
- Propose, scope, and drive long-term hardware design changes with fleet support engineers and hardware design teams, from problem statement through implementation and fleet-wide validation.
- Mentor less experienced engineers and communicate findings and recommendations to engineering and cross-functional stakeholders.

## Requirements
- 10+ years of relevant experience as a hardware engineer, test engineer, or systems validation engineer, with deep hands-on expertise across multiple subsystems.
- Expertise across at least three of the following domains:
  - Compute and processing hardware, including thermal, power, and storage/NVMe
  - Vehicle controls and power systems, including CAN bus, battery/voltage management, e-stop, and safety circuits
  - Networking, including automotive Ethernet, switch diagnostics, and link diagnostics
  - Sensor hardware, including cameras, lidar, radar, and thermal imaging systems
- Extensive experience using oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, network traffic generators, and power analyzers to evaluate hardware performance and formulate actionable solutions for design teams.
- Proven ability to independently lead systematic triage of complex, ambiguous field issues, develop novel lab reproduction methods, and drive investigations to root cause across multiple interacting subsystems.
- Ability to propose, scope, and drive long-term hardware design changes from root-cause finding through implementation while working directly with hardware design teams.
- Experience mentoring or technically leading engineers and communicating findings and recommendations to engineering and cross-functional stakeholders.

## Nice-to-Haves
- Proficiency with Precision Time Protocol (PTP), including network synchronization troubleshooting, hardware timestamping, and timing analysis.
- Strong scripting and automation skills with Python or SQL for fleet log analysis, lab equipment control, and automated test and reproduction pipelines.
- Experience owning a subsystem domain end-to-end, from field-issue detection through containment, root cause, design fix, and fleet-wide validation.
- History of driving cross-functional design reviews and influencing hardware design decisions at the component or system level.
