Manufacturing Test Engineer

Do you want to contribute to Product Manufacturing and Quality at reMarkable, ensuring our existing and upcoming products continuously uphold our high quality standards in the market?

reMarkable creates hardware and software products that help people all over the world find focus. We launched our original reMarkable 1 paper tablet in 2017. Since then, we’ve sold more than 2 million devices, grown to over 450 employees, and transformed from a small startup to a fast-growing scale-up. Following the successful launch of the reMarkable 2, which was named one of TIME's top 100 inventions of 2020, our subscription service Connect in 2021, and the Type Folio in 2023, we've set ourselves exciting growth and product development goals for the coming years.

The hardware design, design validation and hardware verification testing is performed by the engineering teams in collaboration with external partners during product development. This forms the basis for defining and making the manufacturing test strategy, designing and building the test jigs and fixtures, and implementing the test ecosystem together with our contract manufacturing partners prior to mass production. In our continuous effort to improve our quality performance and efficiency, we are strengthening our E2E quality and test function with a Manufacturing Test Engineer, to work alongside the internal engineering teams, contract manufacturing engineers and suppliers. Focus will be on executing on manufacturing test & equipment strategies and driving design for test priorities during product and process development, ramp up, and test support in mass production.
