Sr. Design Validation and Test Engineer

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our "Compromise Nothing™" approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what's possible and shape the future of mobility.

The LV Test and Validation team verifies the reliability, electrical performance, and compliance of low-voltage vehicle electronics. The team works with LVEE hardware design engineers and internal and external laboratories to produce decision-ready validation evidence. Its work spans component testing, test automation, failure investigation, and laboratory operations.

At Lucid, we don't just welcome diversity - we celebrate it! Lucid Motors is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity and expression, marital status, and any other characteristic protected under applicable State or Federal laws and regulations.

As a Sr. Design Validation and Test Engineer, LV124 Electrical Stress, you will own LV124 electrical-stress validation for low-voltage electronic components and ECUs. Reporting to the Low-Voltage Test and Validation manager, you will work closely with design engineers and laboratory partners to complete DVP commitments on time. You will combine hands-on execution with disciplined analysis, documentation, and issue closure. Success in the first year means repeatable tests, complete evidence, and timely resolution of issues affecting current and future vehicle programs.

• LV124 Execution: Execute electrical-stress tests against approved plans and internal specifications, coordinating coverage and delivery with the LV Test and Validation team.
• Electrical Test Plans: Create test plans for E-fuses, voltage regulators, microcontroller power stages, and other ECU-level circuitry to demonstrate electrical performance.
• Bench Configuration: Configure and operate power supplies, oscilloscopes, current probes, electronic loads, and related laboratory equipment.
• DV/PV Evidence: Document test conditions, results, observations, and issues to produce complete design- and production-validation reporting.
• Measurement Review: Organize waveform data, plots, and test artifacts so engineers can assess performance and determine corrective actions.
• Lab and Schedule Ownership: Work with LVEE engineers to maintain coverage, meet DVP timing, and perform safe, disciplined, hands-on laboratory work.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and 5-10 years of relevant experience, including at least 2-3 years of automotive electrical engineering experience.
• Understanding of automotive electrical systems and laboratory testing practices, with extensive experience using oscilloscopes, power supplies, and current measurement techniques.
• Strong Microsoft Word and Excel skills for data organization, analysis, and report generation, plus experience with Confluence and JIRA.
• Excellent communication in technical and non-technical environments, an ownership mindset, and the ability to learn quickly and contribute to high-quality engineering products.
• Strong attention to detail and willingness to work hands-on in a validation laboratory.

• Prior experience executing electrical validation for automotive ECUs.
• Experience with NI Test Stand and LabVIEW.
