<div>About LucidAt Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience. We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.</div> <div>About the TeamLucid’s Field Quality team connects real-world customer and service data to engineering, manufacturing, supplier quality, and future product decisions. The Powertrain group focuses on electric drive units, traction motors, inverters, high-voltage interfaces, and supporting thermal and lubrication systems that shape vehicle performance, efficiency, refinement, and reliability. This team is unique in how it combines fleet analytics, vehicle diagnostics, component analysis, and cross-functional technical reviews to identify emerging issues and prevent recurrence across Lucid’s vehicle portfolio.About the RoleThe Staff Field Quality Engineer, Powertrain is a senior individual contributor role reporting to a Field Quality or Quality Engineering leader.
