Field Quality Engineer Vehicle Systems and Integration

Job Overview

As a Field Quality Engineer - Vehicle Systems and Integration at Harbinger Motors, you

aren’t just monitoring quality—you are the front-line detective ensuring our next-

generation electric vehicles redefine industry standards for uptime and durability. You

will bridge the gap between real-world performance and engineering design, using a mix

of hands-on troubleshooting and advanced data analytics to solve complex problems

before they impact the customer.

What You'll Do:

● Failure Analysis & Troubleshooting: Act as the primary technical expert for

diagnosing complex, systemic issues across mechanical, electrical, and software

domains. You’ll be the person digging into the "why" behind a fault code or a

structural fatigue point.

● Predictive Reliability: Utilize predictive reliability analysis to identify potential

failure modes in our fleet. You won't just wait for things to break; you’ll use

statistical tools to forecast when they might.

● Product Reliability Engineering: Partner with the hardware and software teams

to implement reliability growth plans. You will translate field data into actionable

design improvements.

● Data Management & Analytics: Own the feedback loop. You will manage field

performance data, ensuring it is clean, categorized, and funneled into the right

engineering sprints for rapid iteration.

● Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Service, Engineering, and

Manufacturing to close the loop on Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Corrective

Actions (CAPA)

Who You Are:

● The Technical "Triple Threat": Proven experience troubleshooting mechanical

systems (chassis, drivetrain), electrical architectures (HV systems, wiring

harnesses), and software integration (CAN bus communication, over-the-air

updates).

● Analytical Rigor: Demonstrated disciplined and structured problem-solving skills,

with the ability to use field data, testing and engineering judgment to identify root

causes and evaluate effectiveness of corrective actions.

● Field Grit: You are comfortable working in the field, under a vehicle, or in a lab

setting. You thrive when the solution isn't in a manual.

● Communication Skills: The ability to translate high-level technical data into clear,

concise reports for executive leadership and actionable tasks for engineering

teams.

Required Qualifications

● Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Reliability Engineering (or

equivalent experience).

● 3-10 years of experience in Field Quality, Reliability Engineering, or a highly

technical Service Engineering role within the EV or automotive space.

● Strong proficiency in data management tools (SQL, Python, or specialized BI

platforms).

● Hands-on experience with diagnostic tools (Oscilloscopes, Multimeters,

CANalyzer/CANoe).

● Willingness to travel to customer sites as needed
