Sr. Design Validation and Test Engineer

About Lucid

At Lucid we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucids proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture our award-winning vehicles bring our Compromise Nothing approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability design and engineering ambition and Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments combining exceptional range performance design and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration with design engineering and productionhappening in-houseacross our global offices the world united by a shared commitment to refusing to settle youcanhelpredefinewhatspossible andshape the future of mobility.

The LV Test and Validation team verifies the reliability electrical performance and compliance of low-voltage vehicle electronics. The team works with LVEE hardware design engineers and internal and external laboratories to produce decision-ready validation evidence. Its work spans component testing test automation failure investigation and laboratory operations.

Role:

As a Sr. Design Validation and Test Engineer you will deliver component-level hardware validation and software-automated ECU test systems. Reporting to the Low-Voltage Test and Validation manager you will work closely with design engineers and laboratory partners to complete DVP commitments on time. You will combine hands-on execution with disciplined analysis documentation and issue closure. Success in the first year means repeatable tests complete evidence and timely resolution of issues affecting current and future vehicle programs.

• Verification Planning: Collaborate with hardware design engineers to develop hardware verification plans and executable tests for ECU performance and limitations.
• Component Validation: Execute DVT functional verification and LV124 electrical testing and analyze results against functional and performance specifications.
• Test System Automation: Design build and program hardware test systems ECU simulations test sequences and automated results reports.
• Controlled Evidence: Maintain test setups plans results and issue records in Confluence and JIRA so validation decisions remain traceable.
• Failure Resolution: Work with the design team to investigate test failures identify causes and verify corrective actions.
• Measurement Improvement: Research advanced measurement techniques and refine test methods to improve repeatability accuracy and schedule delivery.

Qualifications:

• Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering and at least 5-10 years of hardware testing experience; automotive experience is a plus.
• Experience applying GMW3172 ISO 16750 IEC 60068 and other environmental testing standards.
• Hands-on experience with thermal chambers DMMs power supplies oscilloscopes DAQ systems and related test equipment.
• Knowledge and experience with Gigabit Ethernet FPD-Link CAN SPI I2C LIN RS232 A2B GMSL Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
• Ability to design and implement test systems that simulate ECUs and solve hardware-test issues with disciplined analysis and collaboration with design engineers.

Preferred:

• Masters degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Extensive digital and analog/mixed-signal circuit testing and LV124 automotive test execution experience.
• Experience with RTStand LV124 vector network analyzers spectrum and vector signal analyzers high-speed oscilloscopes signal generators and arbitrary waveform generators.
• Ability to derive test cases from product requirements and design or analyze procedures to minimize measurement error.
• Knowledge of industrial control systems and interfaces such as Ethernet/IP.
• Proficiency with measurement automation and scripting tools such as Python and LabVIEW.
• EMC/EMI testing knowledge.
