About the Role
We are looking for a Manufacturing Test Engineer to design, build, and scale robust test systems that ensure product quality from early hardware development through high-volume manufacturing and fleet deployment. This role sits at the intersection of hardware engineering, manufacturing, and quality—owning test strategy, infrastructure, and execution to catch design, process, workmanship, and component-level issues before products reach the field. You will develop automated, data-driven test frameworks and diagnostic systems that enable fast bring-up, high coverage, and scalable production operations.
Responsibilities
- Define end-to-end manufacturing test strategy across EVT, DVT, PVT, and production
- Develop scalable hardware test frameworks covering functional, system-level, and end-of-line testing
- Architect modular test systems that can evolve from prototype builds to high-volume manufacturing
- Establish test coverage goals to ensure detection of design defects, component quality issues, manufacturing process variation, and workmanship defects
- Design and implement functional test systems (electrical, mechanical, system-level validation)
- Develop automated test scripts and sequences using Python or similar languages
- Integrate test equipment (DAQs, sensors, vision systems, robotics interfaces, etc.)
- Build diagnostic tools to quickly isolate failures and reduce debug time
- Enable data logging, traceability, and test result analytics
- Configure and manage work orders and test flows within MES or manufacturing systems
- Define test steps, pass/fail criteria, and routing logic across stations
- Ensure traceability of test results to serial numbers, components, and build configurations
- Partner with manufacturing teams to optimize throughput and minimize test time
- Lead test bring-up for new products during EVT/DVT/PVT builds
- Support factory ramp by deploying and validating test stations on production lines
- Debug early build issues and rapidly iterate on test coverage and methods
- Train operators and technicians on test processes and troubleshooting
- Develop structured diagnostic workflows to identify root causes of failures
- Partner with hardware, firmware, and quality teams on root cause analysis (RCA)
- Differentiate between design issues, supplier defects, and manufacturing errors
- Implement containment actions and feed improvements back into test and design
- Design and execute ongoing reliability and stress testing (burn-in, environmental, lifecycle)
- Monitor failure trends and adjust test strategies to catch emerging issues
- Ensure alignment between validation testing and production test coverage
- Define and track test coverage metrics and escape rates
- Continuously improve test effectiveness to reduce field failures and returns
- Optimize test time, cost, and efficiency without compromising quality
- Drive improvements in first pass yield (FPY) through better detection and diagnostics
- Build systems for automated data collection, analysis, and reporting
- Leverage scripting and software tools to streamline test development and execution
- Implement scalable solutions that support multi-line, multi-site manufacturing
- Utilize advanced tools (including AI Agents/ML where applicable) for anomaly detection, failure classification, and predictive insights on test and field data
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
- 5+ years of experience in manufacturing test, hardware validation, or production engineering
- Experience supporting NPI builds (EVT/DVT/PVT) and scaling production ramp
- Hands-on experience with test equipment (oscilloscopes, DAQs, power supplies, sensors, etc.)
- Familiarity with MES systems, work order configuration, and manufacturing workflows
- Experience with hardware-software integration and embedded systems testing
- Knowledge of diagnostics, failure analysis, and reliability testing methodologies
- Willing to travel domestically and internationally up to 30%
Skills
- Automated test development
- Scripting (Python preferred)
- Data analysis tools (Python, SQL, or similar)
- Robotics
- Autonomous systems
- Complex electromechanical products
- High-volume manufacturing
- Contract manufacturer environments
- Vision systems
- Calibration processes
- System-level testing
- HIL/SIL testing frameworks
- Problem-Solving Mindset
- Risk Management
- Adaptability
Location
- Onsite

About the Company
- At Bedrock, we're moving AI out of the lab and into the real world.
- Our team includes veterans who helped launch Waymo, scaled Segment to a $3.2B acquisition, and grew Uber Freight to $5B in revenue.
- Today, we're deploying autonomous systems on heavy construction equipment across the country, improving safety on job sites and accelerating schedules on critical infrastructure projects.
- We're not here debating the future of AI. We're deploying it in the real world.
- In just two years, we've raised $350M and achieved the first fully autonomous excavator deployments in construction.
- This is where algorithms meet steel-toed boots.
- You'll work alongside construction veterans and world-class engineers to solve physical-world problems that simulations can't touch.
- If you're ready to do meaningful work on hard problems, we'd love to have you join us.
