Electrical Engineer, Verification & Validation

About us: Aeva’s mission is to bring the next wave of perception to applications such as automated driving, industrial robotics, consumer electronics, health, security, and more. We are transforming autonomy with groundbreaking sensing and perception technology that integrates all key LiDAR components onto a silicon photonics chip in a compact module. Our 4D LiDAR sensors detect instant velocity along with 3D position, enabling autonomous devices like vehicles and robots to make safer, more intelligent decisions. Role Overview: We are seeking a talented Verification and Validation (V&V) Engineer to join our EE Hardware Development Team. This team manages the design, build, and bring-up of Aeva’s mixed-signal PCBs. As a V&V Hardware Engineer, you will perform tasks related to PCBA or sub-circuit bring-up, characterization, verification, and validation. What you’ll be doing: Collaborate with EE design engineers and other teams to examine PCBs, their functions, and interconnections. Conduct simulation and hands-on characterization of circuits, sub-circuits, PCBA, or systems, and communicate findings in design reviews. Partner with design leads for verification and validation tasks. Engage with Contract Manufacturers (CMs) or internal manufacturing teams for smooth NPI roll-out. Support EE team with backend design support including RMA, FA, and customer interfacing. What you have: BS or Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field. 1-4 years of experience in electrical hardware or product space with hands-on lab expertise. Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal. Good understanding of hardware components, interfaces, and software controls. Familiarity with debugging and probing techniques for protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet, PCIe. Knowledge of PCB design fundamentals and trade-offs. Ability to analyze designs, datasheets, schematics, and make insightful decisions. Experience with Python or MATLAB for automation and data visualization. Experience in motor control or RF/analog design is a plus. Experience in automotive or LiDAR industry is a big plus. Compensation: The salary range is $132,400 - $179,200 annually, determined by role, level, and location. Compensation may include equity, bonuses, and other benefits, along with medical, dental, vision coverage, 401k, paid leave, and holidays.
