Hardware Test Engineer

About Our Work

We are neuroscientists who build ground‑breaking technology for the spatial computing era. We stimulate nerves to create artificial tactile sensations, creating new, more meaningful connections to the user for notifications, 3D digital content, physical AI, health information, and beyond. Our first products will be mobile, wearable devices that stream haptic data from multiple digital sources to create meaningful sensations of touch.

The Hardware Test Engineer is responsible for supporting the development, validation, and optimization of wearable haptic technology products through comprehensive hardware testing and analysis. This role develops and executes hardware verification and validation protocols, performs system‑level troubleshooting, and ensures product performance, reliability, and quality throughout the product development lifecycle.

• Develop, maintain, and execute hardware validation and verification test plans for wearable haptic devices and subsystems
• Perform functional, electrical, environmental, reliability, and system‑level testing on prototypes and production hardware
• Diagnose hardware failures, identify root causes, and collaborate with development teams to implement corrective actions
• Design and improve testing methodologies, automation strategies, and troubleshooting procedures to support product quality and development efficiency
• Work closely with Electrical Engineering, Firmware, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing, and Product teams to align testing priorities with project timelines and business objectives
• Support vendor evaluation and component qualification activities through technical testing and performance analysis
• Document test procedures, test results, defect reports, and engineering recommendations in a clear and organized manner
• Analyze test data and provide technical recommendations to senior leadership and cross‑functional stakeholders
• Assist in defining quality standards and validation criteria for wearable hardware systems
• Ensure compliance with internal engineering standards, safety requirements, and applicable regulatory considerations
• Contribute technical leadership in hardware testing initiatives affecting product execution and organizational strategy
• Other duties as assigned

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical field

• 2–5 years of experience in hardware development, hardware testing, engineering validation, or related technology environments
• Proficient in troubleshooting electronic systems, embedded hardware, or wearable technology platforms
• Familiarity with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies, and environmental testing equipment
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with exceptional attention to detail.
• Ability to work independently on complex technical objectives with guidance from senior leadership
• Experience with haptic systems, wearable electronics, sensors, embedded systems, or consumer hardware products.
• Exposure to automated test systems, scripting, or data analysis tools
• Experience supporting EVT/DVT/PVT phases of hardware product development
• Knowledge of reliability testing, failure analysis, and manufacturing test methodologies
• Ability to evaluate emerging technologies and apply them effectively
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills
• Excellent communication skills
