We're looking for a hands-on System Practical Engineer to own hardware bring-up, integration, and validation in our R&D lab, working closely with experienced R&D engineers. You'll spend your days with real hardware - bringing up boards, flashing firmware, chasing down faults, writing test scripts, and running thermal and environmental characterization. The heart of this role is ownership: taking a task and making it happen end-to-end, working independently and knowing when to escalate
