3. Carefully document test procedures, observed results,



and anomalies in both written and verbal form.
4. Identify, flag, and provide clear descriptions of failures or unexpected behaviors encountered during testing.
5. Collaborate with engineers and other experts to investigate root causes of hardware issues and suggest areas for improvement.
6. Follow detailed test protocols and instructions with high accuracy and reliability.
7. Contribute to the continuous improvement of testing processes and documentation.

Preferred Qualifications
1. Pursuing or holding a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
2. Comfortable handling physical equipment and performing hands-on technical assignments.
3. Demonstrated attention to detail and commitment to reliability in following procedures.
4. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to document and relay findings effectively.
5. Basic knowledge of electrical and/or mechanical systems and terminology.
6. Physical stamina to engage in repeated setup, operation, and teardown of hardware tests.
7. Prior experience conducting hardware tests or working in a lab environment is a plus but not required.
