Blue River Technology is seeking an Autonomous Field Test Engineer to deliver the promise of autonomy to the world's farm fields. As a Test Engineer, you will define, develop, and perform feature-level testing on autonomous machinery and test setups to ensure trusted autonomous solutions in real field conditions. The role involves solving unconstrained problems, probing systems for vulnerabilities, and contributing to product improvements by identifying issues and validating fixes. You will lead the reproduction of field issues, debugging, documenting, prototyping, and system testing of new technologies in robotic and computer vision-based agricultural systems. The position requires collaboration within multi-functional teams—systems and embedded software, test and QA, mechatronics, computer vision, and machine learning engineers—and the ability to work under demanding schedules during the agricultural season. You will build detailed test plans, analyze results, and drive feature improvements with Blue River and John Deere engineering teams. Responsibilities include planning and guiding the integration of complex multidisciplinary robotic systems, evaluating product failures with advanced engineering techniques, and ensuring proper software deployment at system and component levels. The ideal candidate has 2+ years of experience testing high-tech vehicles, robotics, or agricultural products, and a strong foundation in hardware- and software-focused system architecture. This is an on-site role based in Iowa, United States.
