Engineering Technician, Tesla Bot (Night Shift)

Engineering Technicians within the Humanoid AI Robot team work side by side with Engineers to support and sustain the research and development of our prototype robots and sub-systems. You’ll be building/repairing the first iterations of the machines that make the machines, including highly actuated and electronically/computationally dense robots.

Must be a self-starter and efficiently work independently as well as in teamenvironments.

• Work with Engineers to fabricate, assemble, and integrate mobile robot prototypes, including mechanical assemblies, electrical systems, wire harnesses, etc.
• Develop test plans and test systems, including building of assembly jigs and test/validation systems
• Collaborate with Engineering teams to root cause and resolve mechanical and electrical issues
• Provide detailed written & verbal test status updates to key stakeholders
• Provide daily bot inspections and shift pass down reports to key stakeholders
• Maintain a clean and organized lab, ensuring that it is well-stocked with the tools, components, and materials needed to sustain bot
• Supporting bench-top electrical system builds and testing, including obtaining and tracking
• Support low volume prototype part builds and testing, including development of SOP, training modules, and Repair for Serviceability
