It's changing lives and transforming an industry. People join Halter to do meaningful work. By joining us you’ll be solving challenging problems within a talented team and a culture built for high performance. Our team out-think, out-work and out-care.

About the Role.

As Failure Analysis Lead, you will be the person who answers the critical question: why did this fail? When a collar dies in our ongoing reliability stress screening, or a batch shows unexpected yield loss on the production line, you will be the person who opens it up, gathers the data, and finds the truth. You will work hands-on with a small team of dedicated technicians, systematically investigating failure modes, forming and testing hypotheses, and translating findings into concrete recommendations that flow back to our production and hardware design teams.

Every failure contains information, and your job is to extract that information rigorously and turn it into action: changes to processes, components, test coverage, or design. The right person for this role will be deeply curious, methodical, and comfortable working in ambiguity.

You will be embedded at our contract manufacturer in Thailand, whilst working closely with the Halter Production team and connected directly to hardware design engineers in New Zealand. You will be a critical link in the feedback loop that keeps our product reliable and improving.

This role is based on-site at our manufacturing facility in Thailand. Candidates must be able to work in Thailand on a full-time basis. Thai nationals are strongly encouraged to apply. Regular interaction with our engineering team in New Zealand will be required, with occasional travel.
