Required:

• 3+ in Windows desktop application development using Windows App SDK, WinUI (or similar), C#, XAML — and ideally additional experience with native Windows code (C++, Win32/WinRT/COM).
• Deep understanding of Windows application architecture, including interop between managed code (.NET) and native code.
• Proven track record of designing, building, and shipping production-quality desktop applications, with an emphasis on reliability, performance, scalability, and maintainability.
• Strong experience with accessibility APIs on Windows (e.g. Microsoft UI Automation or similar), and a dedication to building accessible and inclusive software.
• Excellent software engineering fundamentals: OOP, design patterns, data structures, algorithms, memory management, multi-threading or asynchronous programming (where relevant).
• Experience leading technical design, mentoring other engineers, conducting code reviews, and making architecture-level decisions.
• Strong communication skills; ability to articulate tradeoffs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and drive consensus.
• A user-centric mindset: focus on building polished, intuitive, and accessible experiences for end users.

Preferred / Bonus:

• Experience with writing automated tests for UI — unit tests, integration tests, UI automation tests; familiarity with relevant testing frameworks.
• Experience with performance optimization for desktop apps (memory usage, startup time, rendering performance, high-DPI support, responsiveness under load).
• Experience with localization/globalization, right-to-left UI support, internationalization, accessibility for multiple regions.
• Familiarity with telemetry, analytics, crash reporting, logging, and error monitoring in desktop applications.
• Previous experience in shaping CI/CD workflows, release pipelines, and deployment strategies for desktop applications.
• Demonstrated ability to take ownership of feature areas or modules and drive them long-term, including maintenance, refactoring, and technical debt management.

What we offer

• A high-impact role: you will define architecture, shape the future of our Windows product, and directly influence what millions of users see and experience.
• A collaborative, flat-structure engineering culture — you are not just a coder, but a builder and a decision-maker.
• Opportunities to lead — mentor others, steer technical direction, and grow into broader technical leadership (e.g. Tech Lead, Architect).
• Flexibility, autonomy, and responsibility: you define how to solve problems, own features end-to-end, and contribute to long-term product vision.
• A purpose-driven mission: building software that’s reliable, accessible, and user-centered — making a real difference for people.

Job Summary: 

The Inspection Technology Engineer I supports the implementation, validation, and continuous improvement of automated inspection systems used in cylindrical lithium-ion battery cell manufacturing. This role focuses on ensuring inspection systems operate reliably, detect defects accurately, and support safe, high-volume production for EV battery applications.

The role is hands-on and highly collaborative, working closely with Production, Quality Assurance, Equipment Engineering, and EHS teams in a fast-paced environment. The engineer will gain exposure to vision systems, X-ray inspection, metrology, and automated electrical test systems across electrode, assembly, and formation processes.

Responsibilities:

Support inspection, manufacturing, or automation processes on the production floor.

Assist with setup, validation, and optimization of inspection and production equipment.

Analyze basic process and inspection data to support yield and quality improvements.

Support troubleshooting of equipment and process-related issues under guidance.

Participate in new model introductions and process change activities.

Follow SOPs, work instructions, and engineering standards.

Collaborate with technicians, engineers, and cross-functional teams.

Support documentation, reporting, and continuous improvement activities.

Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or related field).

1+ years of experience in a manufacturing or industrial environment (internship or co-op acceptable).

Basic understanding of manufacturing processes and quality concepts.

Fundamental understanding of automated equipment or inspection systems.

Knowledge of machine vision algorithm libraries (Halcon, OpenCV) and deep learning models.

Exposure to maintenance of in-line inspection systems (Machine Vision, 3D metrology, X-ray and CT).

Understanding of measurement system analysis (MSA) and gage R&R using Minitab.

Skills:

Basic data analysis skills.

Problem-solving mindset with willingness to learn.

Strong communication and teamwork skills.

Ability to follow procedures and engineering standards.

Basic technical documentation skills.
