We are looking for Hardware Expert (MSc. or PhD) candidates for a project delivered through the hiring partner.
What you'll do
- Create technically rigorous, self-contained hardware engineering problems based on realistic industry or research scenarios.
- Develop clear reference solutions using engineering calculations, simulations, scripts, experimental reasoning, or other appropriate methods.
- Use tools such as Python, MATLAB, Simulink, SPICE, Julia, C/C++, test automation platforms, or equivalent engineering software to validate results when relevant.
What you need
- Experience working with Coding Agents is a must
Nice to have
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Applied Physics, or a closely related field.
- Significant professional or research experience in hardware engineering, product development, systems integration, testing, validation, reliability, or failure analysis.
- Demonstrated ownership of a substantial engineering problem—for example, a product or subsystem that reached production, a model validated against physical testing, a test system you developed, or a difficult failure you diagnosed.
