Sr. Technician, Thermal

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 andmanufacturingfacilities.

The Thermal Systems team supports thermal testing, characterization, and prototyping in the development of Lucid products. R&D technicians partner with engineers to fabricate hardware, build harnesses and test benches, instrument benches and prototype vehicles, and capture reliable, traceable data in a safe, ready-to-use laboratory.

As a Thermal Laboratory Technician, you will support thermal testing, characterization, and prototyping through builds, instrumentation, test execution, troubleshooting, and prototype-vehicle work. Independently complete moderately difficult assignments with little daily instruction and general guidance on new work. Engineering retains test objectives and design decisions; this technician role turns that intent into safe, repeatable lab execution and reliable evidence. Success in the first year means reliable standard builds and tests with minimal supervision, high first-pass setup success, low rework, current calibration records, and traceable data.

We encourage candidates who may not meet all listed requirements but can demonstrate a strong ability to learn quickly on the job to apply.

• Build and Integration: Independently fabricate, build, and rework standard prototype harnesses, metal and piping assemblies, test benches, fixtures, and breakout interfaces to drawings; perform mechanical/electrical integration and pre-energizing checks.
• Instrumentation and Calibration: Install, configure, and validate sensors; set up DAQ channels, scaling, and signal conditioning; maintain calibration records and troubleshoot common signal-quality issues.
• Test Execution and Data Quality: Independently execute test procedures with safe power-up, pre-test and post-test checks, traceable data, and run logs; perform first-pass data sanity checks and flag anomalies quickly.
• Structured Troubleshooting: Resolve common bench, harness, sensor, and test-article issues using fault isolation, swap testing, multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, and load banks; verify fixes by retest.
• Prototype Vehicle Support: Diagnose, maintain, and repair prototype vehicles and bench systems; instrument vehicles for engineering tests and provide field support during test trips.
• Safety and Documentation: Follow and reinforce lab safety, LOTO/energy-isolation, PPE, and special-handling procedures; maintain build records, redlines, BOM updates, as-built status, bench change logs, safe cable routing, labeling, and housekeeping.
• Team and Lab Operations: Partner with engineers to turn test intent into executable builds and tests, order essential supplies, maintain lab equipment, and provide clear handoffs.

• Proficiency with fabrication tools and machinery and with blueprints, schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical drawings.
• Hands-on experience…
