→Develop thorough knowledge of Bota Systems' force/torque sensor products, working principles, and specifications
→Design and execute qualification test plans covering accuracy, repeatability, linearity, temperature stability, hysteresis, and measurement range
→Design, build, and maintain test fixtures, rigs, and automated test setups to support sensor characterization
→Apply calibration methods and mathematical models (including linear algebra and regression techniques) to analyze and improve sensor performance
→Process and interpret measurement data, produce structured technical reports, and present findings to the engineering team
→Collaborate with mechanical, electronics, and software engineers to resolve performance issues identified during testing
→Support continuous improvement of test methodologies and contribute to the development of internal qualification standards

Bachelor's or Master's degree in mechanical engineering, mechatronics, robotics, or a closely related field
Solid understanding of linear algebra and its application to measurement systems, sensor calibration, or robotics — a background in robotics is a strong plus
Some hands-on experience designing or operating test equipment, measurement setups, or instrumentation, even from a thesis, internship, or personal project
Practical, hands-on mindset: you enjoy building things, debugging setups, and getting to the bottom of unexpected results
Ability to write structured test plans and present data-driven conclusions clearly
Comfortable working in Python for data processing and analysis
Good written and spoken English
