Robotics Quality Engineer

Serve as the technical quality lead for robotic and electronic products—ensuring hardware, firmware, and electromechanical integration meet Nextracker standards.

Partner with design, test, and manufacturing engineering to embed quality and reliability controls early in the product lifecycle.

Define, implement, and validate product test and inspection requirements across PCBA, harness, motion control, and sensor subsystems.

Support new product introduction (NPI) through DFMEA/PFMEA execution, control plan creation, and design verification test (DVT) oversight.

Validate and qualify test systems and automated inspection tools for functional verification of complex assemblies.

Drive product-level reliability testing (HALT, HASS, burn-in, and environmental stress screening) and feed results into design improvements.

Evaluate and approve suppliers for electronic and robotic assemblies—PCBs, actuators, control boards, sensors, and embedded systems.

Audit supplier facilities to confirm process capability, traceability, and quality control for critical components.

Lead technical reviews on defect trends, early-life failure data, and product field returns (RMA/FA), driving corrective and preventive action.

Implement statistical process control (SPC) and advanced data analytics (Cp, Cpk, Weibull, X̄-R) to monitor and improve part and system performance.

Develop, implement, and maintain supplier quality scorecards with metrics that emphasize reliability and system performance consistency.

Collaborate with hardware and software teams to validate design for manufacturability, serviceability, and long-term reliability.
