This is a junior to mid-level hands-on technical role specializing in the inspection, testing, and quality assurance of AV self-driving system hardware and its mechanical integration. You will work closely with engineering staff and the AV Safety Manager to identify hardware defects, validate sensor performance, check mechanical integrity, document findings accurately, and support root cause analysis when issues arise. You are not a software engineer but you understand how hardware behaves, how to test it methodically, and how to flag when something is wrong. What You’ll Be Doing Hardware Inspection and Validation Conduct structured inspections of AV self-driving system hardware including Lidar, Radar, cameras, ultrasonic sensors, and compute unitsVerify correct installation, alignment, physical condition, and connectivity of all sensor hardware following defined inspection checklists and partner SOPsPerform functional hardware checks and sensor readiness validations as part of the pre-deployment clearance processConduct post-repair hardware inspections to confirm defects have been correctly resolved before vehicle redeploymentAssess impact of environmental conditions heat, dust, humidity on sensor hardware performance and flag anomalies Mechanical Inspection and Assembly Integrity Inspect all sensor mounting hardware brackets, fasteners, clamps, and vibration isolators for correct installation, torque, and physical conditionVerify cable routing, strain relief, and connector seating across the full sensor wiring harness, flagging any chafe, pinch, or unseated connectionCheck enclosure seals, gaskets, and IP rated fittings to ensure ingress protection against dust and moisture critical in Dubai operating conditionsPerform post-maintenance underbody and chassis-level inspections to confirm no mechanical disturbance from prior service activityIdentify and escalate loose, corroded, or fatigued mechanical components before they cause sensor misalignment or vehicle downtimeMaintain a structured mechanical inspection log alongside hardware QA records so both disciplines are traceable in the fleet maintenance system Testing and Characterization Execute defined hardware performance tests and bench characterization procedures to verify sensor output against acceptance criteriaSupport calibration procedures for Lidar, Radar, and camera systems in accordance with partner technical standardsOperate onboard diagnostic tools and software interfaces to assess hardware health and data qualityDocument test results accurately using 4Cs standards (Condition, Cause, Correction, Confirmation) in the fleet maintenance management system.
