Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer, Robotics

About the role

As a Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer at Mytra, you will join our Manufacturing Engineering team during a period of rapid scaling. Our team is currently focused on scaling manufacturing processes and translating engineering designs into robust production systems, and we need a hands-on, analytical specialist to help us architect comprehensive test strategies, improve first-pass yield, and ensure every robot leaving our facility operates flawlessly in demanding warehouse environments.

If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply — even if you don’t check every box. At Mytra, we build bots, but we hire humans. We value thoughtful challengers who communicate with clarity and respect, and we’re lifelong learners committed to getting better every day. We move fast, learn faster, and show up for each other under pressure. The best outcomes come from diverse perspectives working together to build something meaningful and built to last.

Responsibilities

• Architect & Optimize Test Coverage: Assess manufacturing test coverage, identify quality risks, and design strategic plans for upstream, in-line test stations to significantly boost end-of-line first-pass yields.
• Develop Automated Test Infrastructure: Design and build automated test stations by pairing mechatronics expertise with Python-based automation to create scalable, reliable testing infrastructure for complex robotic systems.
• Manage Manufacturing Data Systems: Define data collection requirements and implement robust data management solutions to track testing metrics, support statistical process control, and drive continuous quality improvement.
• Drive Quality & System Bring-up: Own end-of-line testing operations and system bring-up procedures, utilizing root cause analysis and failure mode identification to resolve quality issues alongside cross-functional engineering teams.

Requirements

• Proven experience with automated test station design, Python programming for test automation, mechatronics development, and hardware test frameworks (e.g., Python, LabVIEW).
• Understand end-of-line testing processes, system bring-up procedures, manufacturing data systems, statistical process control, and data-driven quality methodologies for complex electro-mechanical systems or robotics.
• Demonstrate openness, inquisitiveness, constant ambition, and a willingness to embrace uncertainty, recognize mistakes, and pivot quickly.
• Have 5+ years of experience in manufacturing test engineering, ideally with complex electro-mechanical systems, robotics, or warehouse automation equipment in production environments.
• Excel at cross-functional collaboration with mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software engineering teams to ensure manufacturing readiness and effectively communicate technical findings.

Qualifications

• Direct experience designing
