Robotics Reliability Engineer

Each year, 2.5 trillion hours are spent on household chores. At Matic, we’re on a mission to recapture that lost time, and we’re doing it by revolutionizing home robotics.

Our first product, also called Matic, is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot. We've built what amounts to "full self-driving in the home” with real-time 3D mapping, adaptive path-tracking, and a precise semantic understanding of the home. Our breakthroughs in spatial AI allow Matic to work reliably in real homes, using only RGB cameras and neural networks running on-device.

What happens in the home, stays in the home. Our robots are private by design, with all data processing performed by the robot itself, not in the cloud.

Before the iPhone, consumers adopted several distinct devices; cell phones, PDAs, and portable music players each served a particular need. We believe in a similar progression for home robotics, starting with single-purpose robots and building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time.

Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team, singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. We're ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy.

As a robotics reliability engineer on the team, you will be responsible for driving all the reliability requirements across different sub-systems.

Work with design engineers to understand the physics of failure and apply them to designing accelerated test methods to represent field behaviors

Oversee the design and build of test setups for different loading scenarios – fatigue, vibration and shock, temperature and humidity, etc.

Perform root cause failure analysis at different stages of testing

Prepare concise and detailed test plans, driving test execution, analyzing test reports and presenting results to all relevant stakeholders

Create and manage fleet analytics pipelines to systematically identify and eliminate field failures

Lead design initiatives that require particularly detailed reliability oriented testing and analysis

Strengthen DFR practices while acting in a cross disciplinary fashion spanning across all functions of mechanical, electrical and software engineering

You are genuinely motivated to help those around you

You are passionate about learning outside of your normal comfort zones

You love diagnosing complex technical issues

You are excited to do great work
