Requirements

  • Degree or certification as an Electrical, Software, Electronics, or Mechatronics Technician / Practical Engineer
  • 4 years of experience diagnosing and maintaining electronic and/or electrical systems in passenger vehicles or buses
  • Ability to read schematics and work fluently across both software and electrical domains
  • Hands-on experience with advanced vehicle diagnostic equipment
  • Strong understanding of computer hardware, including building and upgrading high-performance systems
  • Comfort with extended field sessions — including multi-hour rides on autonomous vehicles in varying weather conditions
  • Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines in dynamic field environments
  • Willingness to travel internationally for 2–4 weeks at a time, multiple times per year
  • High proficiency in both English and Hebrew (required for collaboration with our Israel-based teams)
  • Valid driver's license — required
  • Familiarity with the autonomous vehicle industry — a plus
