About Rivian

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.

As a company, we constantly challenge what's possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.

Role Summary

In this role, you'll be part of the team that develops automated test solutions for Rivian's electrical hardware including Level 3+ ADAS, telematics, infotainment, battery management, and vehicle control systems. Our team's solutions include internal-facing software, low-level firmware, data management platforms, and custom electromechanical hardware. These solutions get deployed internally within Rivian and at external labs and contract manufacturing facilities.

You'll be an individual contributor with a multi-disciplinary role at the interface between test automation software and hardware. You'll work on developing test automation solutions for design characterization, validation, and manufacturing. The primary responsibility of this role is to own the technical aspects of one or more test automation projects, from requirements gathering to successful deployment, and maintenance.

  • Work with cross-functional engineering groups to define test requirements and system definitions from schematics and block diagrams
  • Design custom test PCBAs to interface with automotive ECUs
  • Design rack-based test systems that integrate PCBAs and off-the-shelf equipment to create modular test solutions for the latest automotive technologies
  • Create well documented diagrams, bills of materials, and standard operating procedures for test automation systems
  • Collaborate with internal teams during purchasing, station build, integration and final commissioning
  • Work with technicians to communicate requirements and ensure proper implementation
  • Own test system documentation

Qualifications

  • BS/MS or equivalent work experience in Electrical Engineering or related fields
  • 7+ years of relevant working experience designing modular electrical hardware for test automation systems that range from R&D to high-volume manufacturing
  • Ability to read electrical circuits and schematics, navigating PCB layouts and understand manufacturer's product data sheets
