Test Bench Build & Execution
Design, build, and operate test benches for prototype robotic hardware including power systems, motion actuation, sensor arrays, and communication interfaces.
Develop test plans and acceptance criteria in partnership with hardware engineers; own execution of those tests and documentation of results.
Build custom fixtures, jigs, and test setups for hardware validation combining mechanical fabrication, electrical wiring, and software scripting as needed.
Operate and maintain diagnostic equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, and signal analyzers; train junior staff on their use.
Hardware Builds & Integration
Support and in some cases lead prototype hardware builds integrating actuators, sensors
(force/torque, IMUs, encoders, vision systems), compute modules, and power distribution systems.
Perform PCB bring-up and debug, interpret schematics and layout files, and triage issues at the component, board, and system level.
Validate communication buses including CAN, EtherCAT, and RS-485; troubleshoot timing, signal integrity, and protocol issues.
Provide DFM/DFA (Design for Manufacturability / Design for Assembly) feedback to hardware engineers based on hands-on build experience.
Troubleshooting & Failure Analysis
Own root cause analysis for hardware failures across the full platform power, compute, comms,actuation, and sensing.
Reproduce and document failures systematically; author clear failure analysis reports that engineering teams can act on.
Build and maintain a debug playbook for the lab capturing known failure modes, diagnostic approaches, and resolution paths.
Serve as the technical escalation point for complex issues in the lab, bridging the gap between hands-on debugging and engineering team decision-making.
