With more than 140 million commercial autonomous miles safely flown, Zipline is redefining access to healthcare, consumer products, and food across the globe. We operate at a global scale and are looking for practical problem solvers who thrive on real-world challenges and rapid growth.

Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people’s lives and by scaling the future of logistics. We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds. About Zipline Zipline is the world’s largest autonomous delivery system, built to provide fast, reliable access to medicine, food, and other essential goods.

Our Manufacturing Engineering team builds the production systems that turn complex designs into reliable, scalable hardware. We are looking for engineers who like solving practical problems, moving quickly, and building equipment that works in the real world. About You and the Role We are looking for a Senior Production Test Engineer to own the electrical, functional, and automated test equipment used to build and validate Zipline products at scale.

This role is focused on production test systems for the factory floor. You will design, develop, deploy, and sustain testers that verify electrical, electro-mechanical, and mechatronic assemblies before they move downstream or ship to the field. Typical projects may include functional test stands, end-of-line testers, electrical harness testers, sensor and actuator test systems, calibration stations, data acquisition systems, automated fixtures, and production test software.

You will work closely with Manufacturing Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software, Quality, Technicians, and Operations to create test systems that are reliable, fast, easy to use, and capable of scaling to high-volume production.

Requirements

definition through architecture, electrical design, fixture design, software development, vendor build, debug, validation, production release, and ongoing improvement.

, test coverage, pass/fail limits, instrumentation strategies, and validation plans in partnership with design and quality teams. Build or specify test hardware, including electrical interfaces, harnessing, DAQ systems, sensors, actuators, power supplies, safety circuits, and mechanical fixtures. Develop production test software and automation scripts for reliable, repeatable, and high-throughput testing.

What You’Ll Do

Own production test equipment for aircraft, dock, delivery pod, and subassembly builds, from concept through production sustainment. Design and deploy electrical testers, functional testers, automated test equipment, calibration stations, and end-of-line test systems.
