We take pride in fostering a culture where employees feel valued, supported, and inspired to grow. As a QAE you will be responsible for; The QAE is responsible for conducting various tests on robotic systems to ensure product quality, performance and reliability. This role is critical to the development of the most advanced robotic fulfillment and sortation systems. Testing the functionality and performance of a robotic manipulation workcell as part of an overall solution. Test robotic workcell operation as an independent product being qualified as well as it's interaction and integration with the robot fleet, gantry workcell and other microservices. Recovering workcell from mechanical and/or software faults. Ability to troubleshoot HW/SW/FW to identify failures and translate into well written defects. Ability to recover from failures and maintain a healthy test environment. Deploy, configure, and maintain robotic and automated manipulation workcells, and related environments (SW, FW, HW updates) to align with changing test scenarios. Testing involves a combination of physical and virtual test environments, therefore expect physical activity (walking, bending, squatting for low profile bots, lifting, pushing). Tests may involve prepping test data virtually via SW tooling or physically via package sets, totes, carts, etc. Clearly communicate regular status to QA Lead/Manager and/or development team. Highlight risks or blockers in a timely fashion. Ability to think on your feet to quickly diagnose a situation and determine next steps. Excellent verbal and written communication is critical. Collect and analyze data and metrics during or after active testing (logs, dashboards, databases, other web tools) and document observations. Self-driven to deliver result and motivated to learn and understand the complex systems being tested (environment configuration, test plan and test data creation, test execution, what we validate/where and why). Able to deal with ambiguity and switch gears/priorities quickly when products or features are early in the maturity cycle.
