Job description

We are seeking an experienced, high-performing Durability Test Engineer to join our team dedicated to revolutionizing urban mobility. This role focuses specifically on the whole-vehicle and in-service durability testing of our autonomous robotaxi, ensuring its long-term reliability through real-world and proving ground validation.

Responsibilities

  • Vehicle-Level Test Plan Development: Design, document, and manage comprehensive whole-vehicle durability and accelerated mileage accumulation (AMA) test plans across various terrains and environmental conditions.
  • Proving Ground and Road Testing Execution: Lead and execute vehicle durability tests at external proving grounds, public roads, and specialized test facilities, ensuring adherence to rigorous test cycles and safety protocols.
  • Data Acquisition (DAQ) Setup and Testing: Plan and execute on-vehicle instrumentation and data acquisition tests to accurately capture loads, strains, and vibrations on critical vehicle structures and systems.
  • In-Service Failure Analysis: Diagnose and investigate durability-related failures that occur during on-road testing or early field operation, determining the root cause through hands-on inspection and data analysis.
  • Component Durability Validation: Track and verify the performance and reliability of newly integrated components (suspension, steering, brakes, etc.) during vehicle-level durability testing to ensure their life and correct function.
  • Reporting and Feedback Loop: Generate clear, detailed reports summarizing test results, vehicle degradation rates, and identified failure modes. Proactively communicate actionable findings and proposed design mitigations to the Vehicle Design and CAE teams.

Qualifications:

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience: 3+ years of professional experience in whole-vehicle durability testing, road load data acquisition (RLDA), or performance validation within the automotive or heavy equipment industry. Experience with electric vehicles (EVs) is highly desirable. Technical Skills:
  • Proven, hands-on experience with on-vehicle instrumentation setup, including strain gauges, accelerometers, displacement transducers, and thermocouple installation.
  • Experience with setting up and operating multi-channel data acquisition (DAQ) hardware (e.g., Somat, HBM, Dewetron) for vehicle testing.
  • Working knowledge in data processing and analysis using tools like nCode GlyphWorks, MATLAB, or Python for large-scale time-series data.
  • Familiarity with common automotive proving ground test procedures and standards (e.g., Belgian Block, potholes, rough road closures)

Salary Range: $80,000-$90,000/K

The actual salary offered is dependent on various factors including, but not limited to, location, the candidate's combination of job-related knowledge, qualifications, skills, education, training, and experienceÂ
