About Rivian
Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.
As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.
Role Summary
Based in Irvine, CA, the Special Projects Team is the hands-on heartbeat of Rivian's future, where you’ll get out from behind the desk to turn ambitious concepts into physical reality. We are responsible for everything from clean-sheet electrical architecture and rapid prototyping to full-vehicle builds, including engineering the show-stopping prototypes for the R2, R3, and R3X unveils. Our mission is to rapidly construct early-stage development assets that drive Rivian’s critical production decisions, meaning you will be actively translating design intent into functioning physical assemblies right on the shop floor.
You won’t just be building future models; you'll also get your hands dirty retrofitting existing vehicles for high-profile, unique applications like a Grey's Anatomy Ambulance or the Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Van. We prioritize agility and rapid problem-solving over bureaucratic red tape, allowing you to work shoulder-to-shoulder with an elite crew of fabricators, machinists, and designers at breakneck speeds. This role is highly collaborative and fast-paced while offering experience working on a wide range of interesting projects.
Responsibilities
Design ground-up hardware for show cars and early prototypes, fl exing your expertise across mechatronics, LV/HV wiring, and power electronics.
Program microcontrollers and write embedded software to transform static assemblies into dynamic, fully functional electromechanical systems.
Partner with cross-functional teams to translate ambitious ideas into reality, designing clever surrogate hardware to bypass bottlenecks and hit aggressive timelines.
Maintain clean, actionable documentation so your custom architectures can be easily serviced, duplicated, or evolved for future projects.
Qualifications
An understanding of LV and HV vehicle architecture for circuit and wiring design
Ability to design PCBs and integrate their functions into vehicle architectures
The ability to collaborate to fi nd solutions complex problems in unfamiliar systems
Experience with mechatronics systems such as powering and actuating motors for testing applications
The ability to quickly make tradeoff s and decisions to drive progress
The ability to develop software for custom prototypes designed within this same role.
Strong teamwork skills, the ability to collaborate, and a positive attitude
Bachelors Degree with an Engineering Focus
