Electrical Integration & Test Engineer
ELECTRICAL INTEGRATION & TEST ENGINEERMesh Optical Technologies was founded on the belief that optical photons will be at the center of advanced technologies in the coming century. Making advanced technology ubiquitous means building at scale, and that's exactly what we're doing at Mesh.We are seeking an Electrical Integration & Test Engineer to own the electrical integration of production equipment, test systems, and development lab infrastructure. You will get deeply familiar with the electrical design of our products and production systems and are expected to participate in every step of the integration process—from line bring-up and debug through production ramp and sustained operation.RESPONSIBILITIESOwn the electrical integration of production equipment, test systems, and workstations across manufacturing lines and development labsLead electrical bring-up, debug, and validation of new and modified production cells and test stations, resolving issues across power, signal, controls, and instrumentation boundariesOwn end-of-line test systems and development lab test assets, including their electrical hardware, cabling, instrumentation interfaces, and long-term operational reliabilityDesign, build, integrate, and maintain electrical test fixtures, cable assemblies, and hardware interfaces used for qualification, validation, and manufacturingDefine and maintain electrical interfaces between tools, instruments, fixtures, and factory infrastructure, including power distribution, grounding, and signal routingServe as front-line electrical engineering support for the production floor, troubleshooting electrical issues and driving rapid resolutionEvaluate proposed designs for electrical integration feasibility, providing feedback on connector access, cable routing, test point placement, and debug accessibilityEvaluate nonconformances and electrical failures to determine root cause and drive corrective action and system improvementsDrive test readiness for new product introductions, revisions, and production rampsInterface with both engineers and technicians to optimize electrical integration, test, and automation workflowsQUALIFICATIONSBachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related engineering discipline1+ years of hands-on experience in electrical integration, test, hardware debug, or manufacturing (internships, co-ops, and substantive project experience qualify)Experience with electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and system-level electrical documentationHands-on experience with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies)Strong electrical debugging and troubleshooting skillsDemonstrated engineering intuition, critical thinking, and comfort with ambiguityWillingness to work extended hours and weekends as neededPREFERRED EXPERIENCEExperience with optical, RF, or high-speed electrical test equipment (e.g., VNAs, BERTs, optical power meters, high-bandwidth oscilloscopes)Experience integrating or maintaining multi-station production test systems or factory automation equipmentExperience designing electrical test fixtures, probe interfaces, or cable assembliesFamiliarity with data acquisition systems, instrument control (GPIB, USB, Ethernet), or test automation frameworksScripting or programming experience (e.g., Python, LabVIEW) for instrument control, data collection, or test automationExperience with PCB bring-up, board-level debug, or electrical validation workflowsFamiliarity with power distribution, grounding practices, and signal integrity in production environmentsExperience writing test plans, procedures, and providing go/no-go judgment and rationaleExperience working in Linux environmentsDocumentation and configuration management experience in a production environmentCOMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:Pay range:Electrical Integration & Test Engineer: $115,000.00 - $140,000.00/per yearTitle and base salary are determined on a case by case basis commensurate with experience and merit.In addition to base salary, compensation for this role includes:Eligibility for long-term incentives including company stock options and discretionary bonuses awarded for exceptional achievements.Comprehensive medical, vision, and dental insurance with significant cost covered by the company for yourself and dependents.Paid parental leave and flexible PTO (3 weeks accrued vacation and 10 company holidays per year).401(k) retirement plan access.Relocation assistance to sunny Los Angeles.
