Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced Test Operations Lead to own the hands-on side of our test operations. In this role, you will be the person who makes sure everything is ready when it’s time to test: building and verifying the cables that connect our systems, keeping test materials organized and accounted for, and coordinating the logistics that get people and equipment where they need to be. You will also help keep our lab organized, safe, and efficient so the team can work without losing time to missing parts or clutter.
This is a field-facing position. You will travel to test sites to set up and operate test computers, radars, cameras, and other sensor systems, and you will work closely with engineers and technicians to make sure each test runs smoothly from setup through teardown. The ideal candidate is a seasoned test engineer with 10+ years of experience who is equally comfortable at the workbench and out in the field, takes pride in clean, well-documented work, and can lead others by example. If you enjoy a role that blends technical hands-on work, organization, and leadership, we’d like to hear from you.
