Location: This is primarily an onsite position in the northern Pittsburgh metro area. Candidates must be local or willing to relocate.
What you’ll do
Operate and observe autonomous vehicles in realistic warehouse scenarios
Follow structured procedures to check vehicle behavior and system performance
Watch for anomalies, weird behavior, or safety concerns — and help dig into why
Simulate edge cases and uncommon events to see how the system responds
Capture observations clearly and share them with engineers
Use tools like logs, dashboards, and basic command-line tools to support your work
Occasionally recreate issues or walk through updates to see what’s changed
What you should bring
Hands-on experience with autonomous vehicles, industrial robots, CNC machines, PLC or SCADA systems, or other automation equipment for manufacturing or warehousing applications
Ability to follow test procedures, execute tests, evaluate results, and document findings
Experience using command line utilities to install and configure software, review log files, and diagnose issues
Experience troubleshooting integrated hardware and software systems, identifying the potential cause of failures, and documenting findings
General knowledge of how software and technology products are developed and tested
Practical knowledge of safety standards around industrial robots and other industrial automation equipment is a plus
Fanatical attention to detail and ability to catch what others miss
Curiosity and the drive to ask “why” when something doesn’t behave as expected
Ability to change and ambiguity in a resourceful, positive, and professional manner
