Release Integration Engineer - Manufacturing/ EOL

Introduction

we build and operate a fleet of purpose-built robotaxis, and every vehicle must be validated before it can drive on public roads. The HW/SW Integration team manages how software and firmware changes flow safely onto the manufacturing line and through final validation. This contract role extends our release-integration capacity with a focus on End of Line (EOL) - the final manufacturing stage where the robot is calibrated, road-tested, and certified for the road.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Fluency with Linux and the command line, and strong Git skills (cherry-picks, conflict resolution, protected/multi-branch workflows) with 2 years of experience.
• Technical literacy with complex hardware/software systems - able to understand how components fit together and communicate credibly with engineers.
• Aptitude and drive to become an expert in test execution and triage.
• Strong process discipline and clear written communication.
• Proven ability to coordinate and escalate across teams under time pressure, with sound go/no-go judgment.
• Prior work experience at client or in client's Industry

Applicants must be able to work directly for Artech on W2

Preferred Skills & Qualifications

• Prior release, build, integration, or manufacturing-test experience (automotive, robotics, hardware, etc.).
• Familiarity with CI or HIL systems, Docker/containers, and firmware deployment/flashing.
• Exposure to Jira, structured release/change-management processes, and embedded/automotive concepts (CAN/Ethernet, ECUs).

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Manage code-change flow into EOL/manufacturing branches - cherry-pick and hotfix validated fixes across a multi-branch Git topology, then merge validated changes back to the release candidate with strict discipline.
• Execute and triage tests hands-on - run Build Integrity and EOL test suites, read the results, reproduce failures, and route issues to the right engineering owners.
• Cut and announce releases to the line - tag and publish validated software/firmware image builds with clear, complete change logs.
• Protect homologation-sensitive branches - ensure only validated changes reach branches certified for public-road use, where any change requires revalidation.
• Drive the operational rhythm - publish clear daily status summaries, gate test-run go/no-go decisions, and coordinate and escalate across teams under live production pressure.
