We are hiring a Senior Engineering Technician to own the build, retrofit, and readiness of our development vehicles. This is not a standard vehicle technician role; you will take a vehicle from bare platform through installation, functional check, and sign-off, often before a documented procedure exists. You must be capable of working independently to debug complex, cross-disciplinary failures across mechanical, electrical, and firmware layers when documentation is sparse. You will work closely with our engineering teams, translating frontline issues into actionable feedback. This is a full-time, in-person opportunity in our SF HQ for builders who thrive in unstructured, fast-paced environments.

Take vehicle builds from bare platforms through installation, functional check, and sign-off Integrate custom compute units and complex sensor stacks.

Make routing, mounting, grounding, and serviceability decisions.

Build prototype cable harnesses, and verify terminations, pinout, and continuity.

Lead vehicle retrofits and maintain as-built records Independently execute complex hardware-software bring-up and debug sessions

Triage and resolve frontline engineering issues, identifying root causes for intermittent electrical or firmware faults.

Write work instructions and checklists for junior technicians Coordinate scheduled service and vehicle preparation for test Train junior technicians and review their work.

Collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams to drive design-for-serviceability improvements.

Help maintain our shop space, where assembly of production parts happens, keeping the space clean and organized.
