Sr. Field Quality Lab Engineering- RCA

About Lucid

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. Our teamscome from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, youcanhelpredefinewhat’spossible andshape the future of mobility.

Lucid’s Field Quality Laboratory plays a critical role in understanding customer-facing quality concerns and turning evidence into durable engineering solutions. The team investigates returned components, vehicle data, laboratory findings, and field performance trends to determine why failures occur and how to prevent recurrence. Its work connects Field Quality, Warranty Engineering, Product Engineering, Reliability, Manufacturing Engineering, Supplier Quality, and Service Operations to accelerate issue resolution across Lucid’s vehicle programs.

What makes this team unique is its hands‑on, evidence‑based approach to solving complex technical problems that directly influence customer experience, product quality, and future design decisions.

As a Senior Field Quality Laboratory Engineer, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), you will lead complex technical investigations involving customer-returned parts, failed components, vehicle systems, and field quality concerns. This role reports to a Field Quality Laboratory leadership role and exists to improve Lucid’s ability to identify validated failure mechanisms, reduce investigation cycle time, and prevent recurring quality issues. In your first 12 months, you will own high‑impact investigations, strengthen repeatable failure‑analysis methods, and help improve the quality of technical evidence used to support corrective action decisions.

Success will be measured by clear root cause conclusions, effective corrective action validation, faster investigation turnaround, and stronger cross‑functional alignment on issue resolution. A strong candidate will gain direct ownership of failure analysis for customer‑impacting vehicle concerns, with access to returned components, diagnostic data, laboratory testing, and engineering decision‑making across hardware, software, service, supplier, and manufacturing interfaces.

• Root Cause Ownership: Lead technical investigations into customer‑reported quality concerns and determine validated failure mechanisms using returned components, vehicle data, service findings, and laboratory test results.
• Failure Analysis: Perform component inspections, teardown analysis, dimensional measurements, material evaluations, and functional assessments to identify failure origins and contributing factors.
• Validation Testing: Develop and execute structured test plans that reproduce field failures, validate hypotheses, and confirm the effectiveness of corrective actions.
• Technical Evidence: Build clear, evidence‑based technical cases that combine laboratory findings, engineering data, vehicle diagnostics, manufacturing records, supplier information, and field performance data.
• Cross‑Functional Alignment: Partner with Field Quality, Warranty Engineering,…
