We are looking for a Senior Electrical Test Engineer to design, build, and maintain test infrastructure and tooling that supports engineers through electrical bring-up, debug, and validation across the product development lifecycle. This role works closely with hardware, firmware, and reliability teams to ensure test systems and data enable fast iteration and high confidence in electrical performance ahead of production, while helping ensure test knowledge translates effectively into production when needed.

What you will do:

Test development & coding

Develop and maintain development-phase tests using Python, including test automation, data collection, and result validation

Implement test logic that interfaces with hardware communication protocols such as UART and BLE

Build and maintain tooling that supports engineers' development, validation, and debug workflows

Collaborate with manufacturing and quality teams to help ensure test knowledge translates effectively into production

Hardware & protocol-level testing

Support electronics component- and subsystem-level testing during bring-up and early development

Debug and validate issues across hardware, firmware, and test infrastructure boundaries

Translating specifications into tests

Read and interpret electronic component datasheets, specifications, and application notes

Convert component requirements and datasheet limits into clear, repeatable, and automated test cases suitable for engineering validation

Ensure test coverage reflects real electrical, timing, and protocol requirements, not just functional pass/fail

This is an hybrid US based role out of our San Francisco office.
