Robotics Test Engineer

About the role

We are seeking a Robotics Test Engineer to join our dynamic team at Rhoda AI. The ideal candidate will bring a blend of technical expertise and a passion for robotics to ensure our robots perform reliably in diverse environments.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain automated test frameworks that improve validation coverage and reduce manual testing effort across hardware, firmware, and software systems
• Create scalable hardware-in-the-loop and system-level validation environments that accurately represent real-world operating conditions
• Identify, reproduce, and help resolve complex multidisciplinary failures before they impact product milestones or deployments
• Maintain traceability between product requirements, test execution, and validation results across development programs
• Generate high-quality performance, reliability, and characterization data that informs engineering decisions and product readiness

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in test engineering, robotics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related engineering discipline
• Programming proficiency in Python, C++, or both
• Experience working with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and communication protocols such as CAN, SPI, I2C, or UART
• Hands-on experience using laboratory equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, and power supplies
• Experience using version control systems such as Git in collaborative engineering environments
• Strong systems-thinking mindset with the ability to understand interactions across hardware, firmware, software, and robotics subsystems
• Excellent debugging and root-cause analysis skills grounded in data and experimentation
• Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly present technical findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Qualifications

• Nice to have but not required: Experience developing and maintaining automated test frameworks and validation infrastructure, experience with Linux-based development environments and real-time operating systems, familiarity with hardware-in-the-loop testing, robotic systems validation, or electromechanical product testing, experience designing test fixtures using CAD tools

Skills
