About the job

About the Role

We are building electric tractors from the ground up, including our own Battery Management System (BMS), Vehicle Control Unit (VCU), and telematics data logger. We are looking for a hands-on Hardware Test Engineer to join our internal testing team and take ownership of

validating these in-house electronics across the bench and on the vehicle. This is a practical, lab-heavy role for someone who is comfortable with a soldering iron in one hand and an oscilloscope probe in the other.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform board bring-up on new hardware revisions of BMS, VCU, and telematics/data logger boards, including power-up sequencing checks, rail verification, clocking, and first-boot validation.
• Develop and execute test plans and test cases for functional, performance, and reliability testing of in-house electronics.
• Bench-test BMS boards: cell voltage and temperature sensing accuracy, balancing, current sensing, protection thresholds, and fault injection.
• Validate VCU functionality: digital and analog I/O, CAN communication, sensor interfaces, actuator drives, and control logic behavior.
• Test the telematics and data logger stack: sensor channels, CAN capture, GPS, IMU, connectivity, and end-to-end data integrity from device to cloud dashboard.
• Set up and operate test benches, harnesses, and fixtures; build simple jigs and adapters as needed.
• Debug hardware issues down to component level using a multimeter, oscilloscope, logic analyser, and bench power supplies; work with the design team to isolate root cause.
• Log, document, and track defects clearly, and verify fixes against re-test criteria.
• Support environmental and stress testing (vibration, thermal) and interpret results against relevant standards.
• Maintain test documentation, calibration records, and traceability for each hardware revision.

Required Qualifications

• Diploma or Bachelor's degree in Electronics, Electrical, Instrumentation, or a related engineering discipline.
• At least 2 years of hands-on experience testing electronic hardware, ideally embedded control boards or power electronics.
• Demonstrated board bring-up experience on new or revised PCBs.
• Strong practical skills with lab instruments: oscilloscope, multimeter, logic analyzer, bench power supply, and electronic loads.
• Ability to read and interpret schematics, PCB layouts, datasheets, and block diagrams.
• Comfortable with soldering, rework, and probing at the component and connector level.
• Working knowledge of CAN bus and serial protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, RS485/Modbus).
• Structured approach to writing test cases, capturing results, and reporting defects.

Preferred / Bonus Skills

1. Experience testing automotive or EV hardware, especially BMS or VCU boards.
2. Familiarity with battery packs, cell balancing, and high-voltage safety practices.
3. Exposure to CAN tools (CAN alyzer, PCAN, or similar) and protocol debugging.
4. Basic scripting (Python) for test automation, data capture, or log parsing.
5. Awareness of relevant standards (ISO 26262 concepts, AIS-038, IEC 62619, UN R100, ISO 25119) is a plus.
6. Experience with telematics, IoT data loggers, or cloud dashboards (MQTT, Grafana).

What You Will Work On

Real hardware that ships on real machines. You will be among the first to touch every new board revision, and your validation work directly gates what goes onto the tractor. You will collaborate closely with the hardware, firmware, and mechanical engineers on the product team.
