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
