About
Execute comprehensive test protocols for robotic food automation systems and conveyor integrations. Conduct regression testing to verify system stability following software updates. Administer automated test suites and scrutinize results for anomalies across the integrated system. Document test outcomes with meticulous bug reports, including step-by-step replication procedures, system logs, and video evidence. Manual Testing & System Integration
Perform manual testing using tangible food ingredients (e.g., fresh produce, proteins, sauces, grains). Assess system functionality across various food textures, temperatures, and consistencies. Confirm robot precision in food item manipulation. Conduct calibration verification of sensor systems. HMI & Operator Interface Testing
Validate touchscreen interfaces. Test operator alert mechanisms and emergency shutdown functionality. Verify the accuracy of production metrics and status displays. Evaluate UI responsiveness under system load conditions. Confirm user role permissions and security parameters. Edge Case Discovery
Proactively identify atypical scenarios that may challenge the system (e.g., malformed produce, ingredient variations, unique environmental constraints). Test under extreme environmental conditions: low luminance, high humidity, and temperature fluctuations. Develop test scenarios for intricate food automation edge cases (e.g., overlapping ingredients, irregular portions). Document and replicate system malfunctions using scientific methodology. Identify and evaluate time-sensitive interactions between robotic components. Quality Assurance Processes
Adhere to and refine testing procedures and documentation. Maintain test data sets encompassing a variety of food variations. Participate in bug triage meetings and provide detailed feedback. Monitor and report quality metrics to discern trends. Construct reproducible test fixtures for complex scenarios. Technical Proficiency
A minimum of three years of quality assurance testing experience in hardware, robotics, or automation systems. Experience in industrial equipment testing, preferably with conveyor systems. Familiarity with HMI/touch interface testing methodologies. Experience with bug tracking systems (e.g., Jira, Linear) and test management tools. Understanding of automation testing and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) processes for embedded systems. Proficiency in authoring precise test cases and bug reports detailing hardware/software interactions. Comfortable working with technical systems and comprehension of fundamental programming concepts. Testing Aptitude
Robust analytical and problem-solving skills. Meticulous attention to detail with exceptional observational capabilities. Innovative thinking for edge case identification in integrated systems. Capacity for systematic analysis of complex mechanical-digital interactions. Patient and methodical approach to testing. Proficient troubleshooting skills for intermittent issues. Comfortable handling food ingredients (both raw and cooked). Experience with timing measurements and synchronization testing. Ability to lift up to 25 pounds regularly. Willingness to work in test production environments. Availability for occasional on-site testing at customer locations. Comfort working in proximity to moving machinery with strict adherence to safety protocols. Desired Qualifications
Experience with vision system validation. Familiarity with food processing or packaging equipment. Background in manufacturing or production environments. Experience with electromechanical system testing. $140,000 - $170,000 a year
Chef is an early-stage startup where equity is a major part of the compensation package. As the company secures more capital, we will gradually increase salary and cash compensation. The starting salary will depend on seniority.
In addition to salary and early-stage equity, we offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, commuter benefits, flexible paid time off (PTO), catered lunch, and 401(k) matching.
Equal Opportunity Employer We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, national origin, ancestry, citizen status, uniform service member and veteran status, marital status, age, pregnancy status, protected medical condition, genetic information, disability, or any other protected status.
