Knowledge of industry test standards including ASTM, MIL, JEDEC, and IEC Knowledge of failure analysis techniques including (but not limited to) optical microscopy, X-Ray, CT scan, SEM, EDX, and FTIR On-site availability in Redmond, WA. This role cannot be performed remotely. 5+ years experience with 3D CAD design modeling (NX, Solidworks) Knowledge of mechanical fabrication processes and experience with assembly of complex electro-mechanical systems Demonstrated experience specifying and integrating instrumentation and motion control systems (motors, drivers, encoders, pressure transducers, accelerometers, flow sensors) ## Description We are seeking a senior Reliability Engineer to own and execute the reliability strategy for research hardware programs. You will collaborate with a large breadth of cross-functional disciplines to understand emerging designs, processes, and technologies, identifying and mitigating risks associated with these various technologies and architectures. The ideal candidate has a "can do" attitude with a strong background in reliability engineering, aptitude for managing through ambiguity, high attention to detail, thirst for knowledge, and an inherent interest in all aspects of engineering. Responsibilities Partner with engineers and research scientists to define the comprehensive reliability strategies and test plans for research hardware programs, including sequential "waterfall" test campaigns across build phases. Plan, schedule, and execute reliability testing at both component and full-system level Define sample sizes, test conditions, pass/fail criteria, and acceptance limits, and ensure test methods align with program requirements and applicable industry standards. Design, develop, and validate new reliability test setups including mechanical, electrical, and software systems Triage, document, and drive reliability failures to closure with ME, EE, and design partners, clearly articulating root cause, risk, and recommended corrective action; distinguish test-artifact failures from genuine design or process escapes. Interface with external manufacturing and supply partners on reliability issues, corrective actions, and joint test activity. Analyze reliability and test data using statistical methods; produce clear, defensible conclusions from limited prototype sample sizes. We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
