Senior Product​/System Quality & Verification Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Product / System Quality & Verification Engineer to help establish and drive product quality from our first rideable prototypes through development and toward production.

This is a hands‑on, cross‑functional individual contributor role at the intersection of product quality, systems integration, verification and reliability.

You will work across mechanical, electrical, embedded software, connectivity and system interfaces. You are not expected to be the deepest technical expert in every domain—that responsibility remains with the respective Engineering teams. Instead, you will provide the independent quality perspective that connects these domains and ensures that the complete product is adequately verified, integrated, and ready for release.

You will work closely with Mechanical Engineering, System Engineering, Embedded Software / Electronics, Product Management, suppliers and eventually Manufacturing and Service teams.

Plan, coordinate, and review verification and validation activities for components, subsystems, and complete e‑bike systems.

Define and govern Minimum Test Requirements (MTRs) together with Engineering and suppliers, including appropriate test methods, conditions, sample sizes, and acceptance criteria.

Review Supplier validation plans and test evidence, and challenge whether the proposed verification provides sufficient evidence that product requirements are met.

Drive and coordinate system integration and end‑to‑end testing to ensure hardware, software, connectivity, and mobile app functions work reliably together.

Own and maintain the FRACAS process, leading investigations into complex mechanical, electrical, software, and system‑level issues through root‑cause analysis, corrective actions, verification, and continuous learning.

Define and coordinate reliability, durability, environmental, and field‑testing programs to identify risks and improve product robustness before launch.

Coordinate homologation and certification testing, and release readiness reviews, ensuring compliance requirements are met and product quality is maintained throughout development.

Success in this role means that, as we move from prototypes toward production, we can confidently answer key questions about product readiness:
What are the critical requirements? How are they being verified? Are the tests sufficiently rigorous? What issues have been found, and have the fixes been proven effective?

You will ensure that verification activities, test results, product configurations, and compliance evidence are well structured, traceable, and visible, enabling informed decisions on product readiness, certification status, and release milestones.

Success also means establishing a robust FRACAS and problem‑solving culture where issues are identified early, investigated systematically, resolved through verified corrective actions, and used to drive continuous improvement across products and processes.

Ultimately, you will help build confidence that the complete e‑bike and it’s system is reliable, compliant, and ready for launch, not just at the component level but as an integrated product.

Engineering teams will see Quality as a trusted partner that helps identify risks early, challenge assumptions constructively, and support successful product releases.

5+ years of experience in product quality, verification & validation, reliability engineering, systems engineering, or a related discipline.
