About

Base is rebuilding electricity infrastructure through distributed battery networks. This role owns the design, maintenance, and continuous improvement of end-of-line functional testers for high-volume electromechanical assemblies, with primary focus on production support and secondary focus on new tester development.
What You'll Do
Own day-to-day support of end-of-line functional testers on the production floor, including debugging test failures, analyzing yield, and root-causing false rejects
Perform electrical engineering design for functional testers including schematic capture, PCBA design, fixturing, harnessing, power, and interconnect from prototype to high-volume production
Develop and maintain functional test software in Python on Linux for prototype testers; write requirements and collaborate on firmware for production testers
Select and integrate measurement approaches including DAQ systems, programmable loads, source meters, sensors, and CAN/serial communications to the device under test
Ensure accurate test data capture and reliable upload to test databases to support yield analysis and traceability
What You Need
2–5 years of experience designing functional or end-of-line testers for electromechanical assemblies, ideally in high-volume manufacturing
Strong electrical engineering fundamentals with ability to independently perform hardware design including schematics, PCBA, fixturing, power, and interconnect
Proficiency in Python on Linux for test automation, instrument control, and test sequencing
Hands‑on experience with measurement and instrumentation systems including DAQ, programmable loads, source meters, and digital communications protocols (CAN, serial)
Strong debugging skills across hardware, firmware, and software to quickly root‑cause failures on live production lines
Nice to Have
Experience optimizing high-volume testers for cycle time and throughput
Familiarity with test data infrastructure and databases for storing and analyzing production results
Background reducing false‑reject rates and improving yield through measurement and fixture improvements
Experience standing up testers quickly for prototype or early‑production builds
