Role Title: Break-It-To-Build-It — Hardware Tester
Role Type: Contractor
Location: Los Angeles, Cali
We are engaging Break-It-To-Build-It — Hardware Testers to contribute to an innovative project focused on next-generation robotics hardware. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This hands-on opportunity invites recent grads, students, and experts alike to conduct physical tests on actual robotic sub-assemblies, not just review specifications or code. Your attention to detail, clear communication skills, and ability to meticulously follow procedures will make a direct impact on the project’s success.

- Conduct hands-on functional and reliability tests on robotic sub-assemblies and hardware components.
- Operate diagnostic tools such as DAQ systems, measurement instruments, and other test equipment per provided protocols.
- Carefully document test procedures, observed results, and anomalies in both written and verbal form.
- Identify, flag, and provide clear descriptions of failures or unexpected behaviors encountered during testing.
- Collaborate with engineers and other experts to investigate root causes of hardware issues and suggest areas for improvement.
- Follow detailed test protocols and instructions with high accuracy and reliability.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of testing processes and documentation.
Preferred Qualifications
- Pursuing or holding a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Comfortable handling physical equipment and performing hands-on technical assignments.
- Demonstrated attention to detail and commitment to reliability in following procedures.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to document and relay findings effectively.
- Basic knowledge of electrical and/or mechanical systems and terminology.
- Physical stamina to engage in repeated setup, operation, and teardown of hardware tests.
