Your New Role and Team
Sanctuary, a world leader in building AI-based control systems for humanoid robots is looking to hire a Quality Assurance Engineer for our System Integration Team. Reporting to the System Integration Team Lead, you’ll be actively contributing to the internal test, validation, and acceptance process critical to the mission of creating human-like intelligence in general-purpose humanoid robots. 

The Quality Assurance Engineer will handle the vital responsibility of helping construct, evolve, and accelerate the capabilities of a system designed to support Sanctuary AI’s mission. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of our existing systems and component testing process. Additionally, you will iterate upon those systems and components to improve our performance in software testing, integration, and the ability to bring our robotic hardware platform to life.

The best Quality Assurance Engineer candidate has experience designing and running test programs for high-complexity, network-connected, technological systems. This includes systems comprising hardware, software, and AI/ML technologies, such as those used in autonomous vehicles, drones, mobile robots, or high-performance aerospace vehicles or aircraft. 

As a Quality Assurance Engineer, you’ll manage test execution, and validation, against our workflow testing process for all components throughout the robotic system, establishing procedures and automation for running those tests to maximize scalable testing acceleration. Demonstrated experience in a Systems Engineering discipline would allow you to hit the ground running in this role.
