DuniaMake sure the system never lies, and rarely fails, no matter the complexity
Dunia is building AI-native, automated laboratories for materials discovery. Our systems combine hardware, software, chemistry, and automation in tightly coupled workflows. In this environment, reliability and quality are not support functions. They are foundational.
As Reliability & Test Engineer, you will own the design and enforcement of reliability, testing, and safety practices across Dunia's facilities.
Your role is to minimize downtime, prevent failure propagation, and ensure that every experiment, run, and dataset meets a consistently high quality bar.
This role exists to make sure the system works every time, not just most of the time.
Design reliability into the system
Identify where failures are likely to occur before they happen
Eliminate single points of failure across hardware, automation, and workflows
Build recovery strategies that minimize impact when things go wrong
Define tests that reflect real operating conditions, not ideal scenarios
Ensure consistency and reproducibility across runs and systems
Prevent subtle degradation from quietly eroding quality
Protect safety as autonomy increases
Anticipate how increased automation changes risk
Design safeguards that work without constant human intervention
Take ownership of safety as a system property, not a checklist
Investigate incidents andnear-missesdeeply
Translate findings into durable system improvements
Raise the reliability bar across the organization
Degree in engineering (mechanical, electrical, systems, industrial, or related field)
5+years experience in reliability engineering, test engineering, or quality assurance in complex technical systems
Strong background in failure analysis, testing methodologies, and system validation
Experience working with automated, hardware-software integrated environments
High standards, strong ownership mindset, and comfort saying "this isn't ready"
Clear communicator who can align teams around quality and safety expectations
Dunia, meaning "world" in over 20 languages, reflects our focus on building technologies that deliver abundance globally. By combining physics, AI, and automation, we accelerate materials discovery for next-generation energy and industrial systems. Our work helps make energy more accessible and materials more affordable and resilient while reshaping how science moves from idea to impact.
Join us to work on problems where progress truly compounds.
