Join a Stealth-Mode Health & Wellness Tech Startup | Test Engineer Opportunity:

Ready to get in on the ground floor of something seriously exciting? We’re a stealth-mode startup in the IoT health and wellness space with a game-changing (and patent-pending) product that’s about to turn heads. We’re building from the ground up and need sharp, detail-obsessed minds to help bring our innovative tech to life. This is your chance to be one of the early hires - meaning real impact, and growth. If you’ve ever wanted to help shape a product, a culture, and a future, now’s your moment.

Test Engineer | Full-Time | On-Site | Competitive Salary:

We’re looking for a hands-on Test Engineer with a strong electro-mechanical/ automotive background, someone who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment and knows how to poke holes in a product (and then help us fix them). You’ll be embedded in the core development team, responsible for ensuring our hardware performs flawlessly before it hits real-world users.

What You’ll Be Doing:



Manual testing of electro-mechanical systems with a user-first mindset

*

Working closely with engineering to build and run rigorous test plans

*

Supporting product development cycles with precise documentation and feedback

*

Hands-on assembly, prototyping, and debugging of hardware builds

*

Using CAD tools (SolidWorks, Fusion 360 etc.) to review and update part designs

*

Suggesting design and process improvements based on testing outcomes

*

Tracking issues and validating fixes with methodical, repeatable workflows

What You’ll Bring:

*

2 – 5+ years in a hands-on test engineering role (hardware / electro-mechanical / automotive ideally)

*

CAD experience (comfortable enough to review/edit parts and assemblies)

*

Automotive or electro-mechanical background strongly preferred

*

Proven track record with manual test procedures and documentation

*

Meticulous attention to detail – you're the type who always finds the thing others missed

*

Methodical thinker with strong problem-solving instincts

*

Bonus: Experience in a startup or R&D-heavy environment

Why This Is Different:

*

You’ll be joining a company before the noise - genuine influence, no bureaucracy

*

We’re creating tech with real-world health impact, not another throwaway gadget

*

Be part of a tight-knit, collaborative founding team
