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 We are seeking a Validation Engineer to develop, manage, and execute validation plans for chassis component-level testing within vehicle programs. This role plays a key part in ensuring chassis systems meet performance, durability, and regulatory targets through rigorous validation processes. The ideal candidate will bring experience in fatigue and block cycle durability testing, paired with strong coordination skills for managing both in-house and external test activities. This position requires close collaboration with durability, chassis, dynamics, and program teams, as well as external testing vendors, to deliver structurally robust products that meet Rivian’s quality standards.
