Our mission is to provide manufacturers and other industrial sectors with insights into the health of machines, processes, and operations to transform how people work and what they can create. A leader in Machine Health and Process Health solutions, Augury uses purpose-built AI technology, trained by industry experts and the world’s largest data library, to help companies realize the full potential of their production. Together with our customers, we are pioneering Production Health by removing friction created by competing business goals so companies can improve business outcomes, empower their workforce, and achieve sustainable production- all at the same time.
You are a Embedded Test & Validation Engineer that designs, builds, and owns the production testing infrastructure for our IoT devices. You’ll work across multidisciplinary teams to develop automated test systems, maintain R&D validation equipment, and ensure our hardware ships with the highest levels of reliability and quality.
A Day In Your Life
Hardware Test & Production Validation
- Own the full hardware test & validation domain: automated test systems, jigs/fixtures, diagnostic tooling, and production-line validation.
- Engage early in product development to define and enforce Design-For-Test (DFT) requirements across hardware and firmware.

- UUT identification
- Firmware flashing & verification
- BLE communication setup
- Built-In Self Test (BIST)
- NFC tests
- LED tests
- Power measurement
- Build and maintain scalable validation tools and test jigs from prototype through mass production.
- Design automated test software in Python for functional, electrical, RF, and system-level validation.
Automation Infrastructure
- Create frameworks for continuous validation, reproducible tests, remote debugging, and OTA-based test configurations.
- Integrate automated test flows with backend systems such as MongoDB, BigQuery SQL, and cloud reporting dashboards.
- Implement automated data collection, storage, analysis, and traceability pipelines.
Hands-On Debug & Collaboration
- Perform hands-on hardware debugging using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, signal generators, power analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and other lab equipment.
- Collaborate closely with hardware, firmware, mechanical, systems, and field teams to align test requirements and resolve multi-disciplinary issues.
- Document test requirements, architecture, interfaces, validation flows, and troubleshooting methods.
