About this role
Role Overview
- Develop and implement reliability test plans and protocols for PCBAs and electronic assemblies
- Partner with hardware, firmware and manufacturing engineers to establish and refine component and system level reliability targets for our electronics and battery systems
- Drive Design Failure Modes and Effects Analyses (DFMEA) for various systems to capture performance risks and implement appropriate mitigation activities
- Partner with Sales and Product to develop lifetime reliability and warranty targets
- Create holistic models of product lifetimes and common failure modes using field data, field failure analysis, and accelerated life testing
- Monitor field performance and identify statistical trends in failure
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in Hardware Reliability, with an emphasis on electronics reliability (PCBAs, batteries, harnesses, etc)
- Proficiency in statistical analysis software and reliability testing tools
- Scripting for test automation and data analysis
- Working knowledge of statistical software for reliability, such as JMP or the ReliaSoft suite, or MATLAB
- Experience managing external partners and test labs
- Direct experience with accelerated lifetime test design and analysis
- Deep understanding of physics of failure and common failure mechanisms for PCBAs and electronic components (MOSFETs, capacitors, inductors…etc)
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics or a related field
Benefits
- Health, Dental & Vision (Gold and Platinum with some providers plans fully covered)
- Paid parental leave
- Alternating day off (every other Monday)
- “Off the Grid”, a two week per year paid break for all employees.
