Mountain View, United States Reliable Robotics Corporation Full time

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods - and eventually people - move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.

As a Sr. Mechanical Test Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you will be an integral part of the mechanical engineering team. We're looking for a broadly experienced individual that combines the fields of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering to help us develop our mechanical testing operation. This is a clean slate opportunity to grow our primitive test operations into a production worthy operation. We need you to break our development hardware, identify root causes, and help redesign it. We need you to design automated acceptance test stands to identify manufacturing flaws. We need you to integrate load cells and data acquisition systems onto our testbed aircraft.

Responsibilities

    • Lead the development of mechanical test stands for functional and environmental qualification testing
    • Specify, source, and integrate required instrumentation
    • Automate the repetitive aspects of the test stands
    • Author, execute, and audit test plans, procedures, and reports
    • Perform data analysis and data reviews
    • Collaborate with the rest of the team to improve the flight hardware
Basic Success Criteria
    • B.S. Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Software Engineering, or equivalent industry experience
    • 8+ years experience working in hardware test
    • Strong knowledge of mechanical engineering fundamentals
    • Proven track record of qualifying hardware in a highly regulated industry
    • Familiarity with environmental qualification testing standards (MIL-STD-810, RTCA DO-160, or similar)
Preferred Success Criteria
    • 5+ years experience in aviation hardware test planning and execution
    • Wire harness fabrication and modification
    • Proficient with CAD and engineering drawing creation
    • Strong knowledge of measurement and data analysis
    • Working understanding of electrical systems and software scripting
    • Ability to work both independently and as a leader of a high performing team
    • Passionate about environmental, functional, and structural testing of hardware


The mechanical team has a wealth of knowledge to share, a strong desire to learn, and a passion for building safe mechanisms and robust structures. As a senior member of our team, you will play a key role in the development of the novel hardware that will transform the future of flight. From component level thermal testing to instrumenting our aircraft with a sensor suite for flight testing, you will also closely interface with our software, avionics, and flight operations teams as we ramp up our testing operations. The cross-functional nature of this role also lends itself to mentoring opportunities across the entire company.

The position will be located at our facility in Mountain View, California.

Must be willing to travel 30% of the time.

The estimated salary range for this position is $162,000 to $220,000/annual salary + cash and stock option awards + benefits. At Reliable Robotics, we strive to provide competitive and rewarding compensation based on experience and expertise, as well as market conditions, location, and pay equity.

In addition to base compensation, Reliable Robotics offers stock options, employee medical, 401k contribution, great co-workers and a casual work environment.

This position requires access to information that is subject to U.S. export controls. An offer of employment will be contingent upon the applicant's capacity to perform in compliance with U.S. export control laws.

All applicants are asked to provide documentation that legally establishes status as a U.S. person or non-U.S. person (and nationalities in the case of a non-U.S. person). Where the applicant is not a U.S. person, meaning not a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful permanent resident, (iii) refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or not otherwise permitted to access the export-controlled technology without U.S. government authorization, the Company reserves the right not to apply for an export license for such applicants whose access to export-controlled technology or software source code requires authorization and may decline to proceed with the application process and any offer of employment on that basis.

At Reliable Robotics, our goal is to be a diverse and inclusive workforce. As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, creed, ancestry, sex, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, or related medical conditions), gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability or medical conditions, national origin, military or veteran status, genetic information, marital status, or any other basis covered by applicable law. All employment and promotion is decided on the basis of qualifications, merit, and business need.

If you require reasonable accommodation in completing an application, interviewing, completing any pre-employment testing, or otherwise participating in the employee selection process, please direct your inquiries to work@reliable.co
