Description
About us:
Aeva is building the next generation of sensing and perception for autonomous vehicles and beyond. With its unique ability to measure instantaneous velocity for each pixel, long-range performance at high resolutions, while being free from LiDAR or sunlight interference, Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is built from the ground up at silicon photonics scale for mass-market applications.

Role Overview:
We are looking for a Reliability Test Engineer to join our dynamic Quality and Reliability Team. In this pivotal role, you will be responsible for developing and executing comprehensive test strategies and protocols to guarantee reliable operation of  Aeva's state-of-the-art 4D LiDAR. Your expertise will be vital in upholding the highest standards of excellence within our organization.

What you'll do:

  • Design and develop comprehensive reliability test plans, protocols, and procedures for Aeva’s LiDAR systems and modules. 
  • Conduct reliability testing, including environmental, mechanical, thermal, and electrical stress tests.
  • Diagnose and resolve issues in mechanical or electrical test setups, equipment, and signal processing. 
  • Manage and optimize lab test instrumentation and data acquisition systems.
  • Create automated test setups and scripts to efficiently conduct reliability tests. 
  • Identify and implement improvements in test processes and methodologies.
  • Analyze test results, identify failure modes, and perform statistical analysis on test data to assess product reliability.
  • Prepare detailed test reports, documenting test procedures, results, and recommended actions.
  • Present findings to engineering and management teams to drive data-driven decisions.
  • Work closely with the design and manufacturing teams to implement design changes based on reliability testing outcomes.
  • Stay updated on industry standards, best practices, and emerging technologies in reliability engineering.

What you'll have:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in a hardware R&D lab or industry setting, specializing in the testing of electrical and mechanical components and systems.
  • Experience with transducers, sensors, electrical circuits, signal processing, and data acquisition systems, including their integration and optimization in testing environments.
  • Proficient in MATLAB and Python.
  • Experience with failure analysis techniques.
  • Experience with reliability testing methods including environmental chamber - programming and operation, mechanical testing, and electrical testing of consumer electronics.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and experience with root cause analysis and corrective action processes. 

Nice to haves:

  • Experience with Labview and NI Instruments 
  • Familiarity with EMC testing and debugging techniques
  • Good understanding of control systems theory

What's in it for you:

  • Be part of a fast-paced and dynamic team
  • Very competitive compensation and meaningful stock grants
  • Exceptional benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, and more
  • Unlimited PTO: We care about results, not punching time cards

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
