About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Quality Engineer to support and strengthen our hardware QA function as we scale robot production. You'll be embedded on the manufacturing floor, working closely with assembly, operations, and engineering teams to ensure every robot we ship meets our quality standards. This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, sweats the details, and isn't afraid to get their hands on the hardware.

What You'll Do

• Execute incoming inspection, in-process inspection, and final QC checks across mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical assemblies

• Identify, document, and track defects and non-conformances through to resolution

• Support root cause analysis (RCA) and corrective/preventive action (CAPA) processes

• Develop and maintain inspection plans, checklists, and work instructions

• Collaborate with assembly technicians and manufacturing engineers to address quality issues in real time

• Collect and analyze quality data to surface trends and drive continuous improvement

• Support supplier quality efforts, including incoming material inspections and feedback to the supply chain team

• Maintain accurate quality records and support audit readiness

What You'll Bring

• 2–5 years of experience in a quality or manufacturing engineering role, ideally in hardware, electronics, or robotics

• Hands-on familiarity with inspection tools and techniques (calipers, CMM, torque verification, functional testing, etc.)

• Experience with non-conformance tracking and CAPA workflows

• Solid understanding of GD&T and engineering drawings

• Familiarity with lean manufacturing and continuous improvement methodologies (5S, 8D, DMAIC)

• Strong attention to detail and a bias toward action

• Comfortable working in a startup environment where processes are still being built

Bonus Points

• Experience in robotics, automation, or electromechanical assembly

• Exposure to IPC standards or ISO 9001 quality systems

• Experience supporting NPI (New Product Introduction) quality activities
