Engineering Lab Manager
Specter, San Francisco
The role
You’ll build and maintain the lab and test sites the rest of engineering depends on. That spans standing up outdoor test installations, wiring the lab’s network and servers, mounting radios for RF testing, and building racks and moving live hardware into them without losing a beat. You scope it, source it, build it, and make sure it holds up. Just as important is the part that doesn’t show up in a single install: making the lab a system that runs without you standing over it.
You’ll decide how the space is laid out, how equipment is tracked and maintained, and how the common jobs get done so they come out the same every time. As the team grows, you’ll direct technicians and set the standards they work to.
