About the job
About the Position:
Step into the future of robotics and human interaction with Cobot. Our team is comprised of visionary innovators dedicated to transforming how humans and robots collaborate. We envision a world where robots seamlessly integrate into daily life, adapting and responding to our needs rather than the other way around.
Do you have a passion for validating complex robotic systems? Are you skilled in designing comprehensive test frameworks that assess integration, reliability, and performance? If so, we invite you to apply for the role of Senior Systems Test Engineer within our robotics division. This pivotal position will drive the validation strategy for our robots as complete systems, ensuring their impeccable performance in real-world scenarios. You will be responsible for building test infrastructure, creating system-level testing plans, and overseeing validation processes that encompass firmware, embedded control, autonomy, and mechanical systems.
This role is based at our headquarters in Santa Clara, CA.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and implement system-level validation strategies to confirm optimal robot behavior in real-world conditions.
- Develop and enhance automated test infrastructure across hardware and software integration points.
- Create scenario-based validation plans focused on robot behavior, performance, reliability, and safety metrics.
- Investigate and troubleshoot complex hardware and software issues, from low-level interfaces to high-level autonomy.
- Build and expand simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test environments for thorough system validation.
- Establish processes to monitor test coverage, regression, and performance metrics over time.
- Work closely with engineering teams across embedded software, perception, controls, and mechanical/electrical domains.
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to support targeted verification and validation efforts.
- Contribute to tools for test automation, diagnostics, telemetry, and log analysis.
