Test Engineer II

THE OPPORTUNITY Join the team that scales and strengthens Hinge Health's testing capabilities for software-enabled hardware systems. As a Test Engineer II, you will execute well-defined test methods and verification protocols, help run a disciplined hardware test lab, and ensure our devices meet the rigor, traceability, and quality expectations required in regulated product development. WHAT YOU'LL ACCOMPLISH - In your first 3 months: - Execute defined test methods and protocols for design verification, sustaining changes, complaint investigations, and related product test activities. - Collect, record, and organize test data and draft clear test reports that address results, discrepancies, and follow-up needs. - Support ad hoc engineering test execution and other bench-level testing needs as programs move through development and verification. - Support QC testing for in-office builds as needed, including basic incoming checks, screening activities, and documentation of results. - In your first 6 months: - Serve as a first line of support for hardware-related complaint investigation testing using established methods and documented procedures. - Help run the lab effectively by maintaining equipment records, tracking fixtures, coordinating calibration status, and keeping the space organized and ready for use. - Support execution of test method validation protocols and other formal studies prepared by the broader test team. - Support automated and semi-automated test execution by preparing devices, samples, fixtures, scripts, and lab setups; monitoring runs; and documenting and escalating failures appropriately. - In your first year: - Support assembly of prototypes, fixtures, and test setups, including minor modifications using standard lab and bench tools. - Identify recurring execution pain points and partner with test engineers to improve repeatability, standardize workflows, and expand automation support over time. - Partner closely with Quality, R&D, and other cross-functional stakeholders to ensure testing is completed on schedule and documented appropriately. WHO YOU ARE - You are organized, hands-on, and detail-oriented, with a strong bias toward clear documentation and lab discipline. - You are comfortable working in a regulated product development environment where rigor, traceability, and process adherence matter. - You are a collaborator who enjoys working cross-functionally with engineers, quality partners, and program stakeholders to keep test activities moving. - You are a learn-it-all who seeks to improve test workflows over time through better tooling, automation, and standardization. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS - Bachelor's degree, associate degree, technical certification, or equivalent practical experience in engineering, engineering technology, quality, or a related technical field. - 2+ years of experience working in a test, lab, quality, manufacturing, or product development environment. - Experience executing written procedures or protocols and documenting results in a clear, traceable, and organized way, including handling sample tracking, equipment records, and test documentation. - Experience using common lab equipment and working within controlled test setups. - Ability to work cross-functionally with engineers, quality partners, and program stakeholders to complete testing on schedule. - Strong written communication skills for documenting results, discrepancies, and test observations. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS - Experience supporting hardware verification, validation, sustaining, or complaint investigation activities. - Experience in regulated product development environments, ideally within medical devices. - Experience with lab administration, calibration tracking, fixture control, or equipment management. - Experience supporting QC testing, screening, or incoming checks for in-office builds or prototype hardware. - Experience working with automated or semi-automated test setups, scripts, or fixtures in a…
