Manufacturing Quality Engineer: our view in 3 lines...
- The Role:This role is for a manufacturing quality engineer focused on the hardware package that supports autonomous construction machines.
- The Person:The person will define hardware quality measures, design and implement testing systems, document failures and root causes, analyse field returns, and manage supplier quality through inspections, qualifications, audits and corrective actions.
- Requirements:The role calls for a university degree in mechanical, electrical or quality engineering, 3+ years in quality or manufacturing engineering, hands on failure analysis, CAD knowledge, hand metrology, and a solid understanding of mechanical and electrical systems.
About the role
Gravis Robotics is a high-growth Series A start-up backed by SoftBank, bringing Physical AI to the construction industry, turning heavy construction machines into autonomous robots.
Gravis began as an ETH Zurich spin-out, and our unique combination of learning-based automation and augmented remote control lets one operator safely conduct a fleet of earthmoving machines in a gamified environment.
Backed by deep robotics research and now deployed across multiple countries with leading construction and equipment partners, our team is rapidly growing to bring this technology to a trillion-dollar industry.
The Gravis RACK is a machine-agnostic retrofit kit that adds autonomy to excavators and wheel loaders from 10 to 100+ tonnes: LiDAR and camera sensing, GNSS RTK, networking hardware and rugged edge compute that works offline. Paired with the Slate tablet and our Copilot software, it lets an operator run a machine manually, with AI assistance, or fully autonomously. Increasingly, we also build custom hardware to adapt our machines for highly specialized, robust applications beyond traditional excavation.
About the role
We are looking for a manufacturing quality engineer to own the quality and reliability of the Gravis hardware package that turns regular excavators into awesome, autonomous machines. You will work with our engineering and production team in Zurich defining and implementing quality measures like incoming inspections, supply chain validations, failure analysis and product return teardowns to enable our custom AI hardware a safe and reliable operation of heavy machines. You are capable of working both independently and with others, and are intrinsically driven to solve challenging applied problems with a rigorous attention to detail and an exploratory imagination.
You are our first quality hire. There is no dedicated quality team, no lab, and no playbook; you will design the test / fixture / process and then go build it.
