Desirable

• As a Hardware Test Engineering Intern at Reliable Robotics, you will be a key part of the Hardware Test team
• This is a small team of broadly experienced engineers that strive to ensure that all hardware being produced meets the stringent requirements for aviation
• Hardware Test Engineers are one of the essential interfaces between the design, production, and flight test teams and are exposed to a wide variety of engineering fields and technical challenges
• You will be creating automated test stands to replicate extreme flight conditions on our hardware and mechanisms that will serve as the backbone of our qualification testing
• You will help to break our development hardware, help root-cause the failure modes, and provide critical input in redesigning it
• You will be writing the software and building the hardware platforms for the command, control and data collection systems that will test our systems to rigorous aerospace standards
• Full ownership of the development of mechanical or electrical test stands for development testing, production acceptance testing, functional and environmental qualification testing
• Author, execute, and audit test plans, procedures, and reports
• Work closely with design engineers and flight test engineers to design, build, test and improve flight hardware
• As a member of our team, you will be a pivotal contributor to the development of novel hardware that will transform the future of flight
• From component level thermal testing to instrumenting our aircraft with a sensor suite for flight testing, you will closely interface with many vital parts of our system
• The cross-functional nature of this role also lends itself to mentoring opportunities across the entire company
