Job Details
Duties:
As a Test Engineer at SNC, you will be using your skills and expertise to simulate, test, certify and improve cutting edge products and services. These cover a very wide range from advanced mission payloads and electronic systems through highly integrated aircraft to orbital and space exploration systems. This position is situated within a dynamic team-focused environment, emphasizing the planning and execution of comprehensive testing for both mission systems and air vehicles. Our approach evolves with the design maturity, extending from initial stages through to post-production follow-ups on subsequent articles. The role involves extensive system testing, aimed at assessing a broad spectrum of mission equipment such as communication, computing, navigation, and surveillance systems, to ensure they meet design and functionality standards. Additionally, air vehicle testing tasks will include the assessment of aircraft systems disturbed during air vehicle modification and return-to-service efforts, and a thorough evaluation of various flight and control capabilities across prototype air vehicles. Working Conditions: Rarely exposed to outdoor elements (high/low temperatures, sun, rain/snow, etc.)Rarely exposed to fumes or hazardous chemicals/materials. Rarely exposed to loud noises. Safety Sensitive Position: Responsible for the safety or security of people or property. Inspects structures, equipment or vehicles
*Hybrid, when possible*
Good screening Questions:
Do you have any basic or advanced experience operating common electronic test equipment (digital multi-meters, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, RF power meters, etc)?
Do you have any basic or advanced experience operating common aircraft systems (radios, datalinks, navigational aids, radars, etc)
Do you have any experience with Test and Validation activities?
Do you have a BS degree in Engineering (any discipline)?
Role can be between a II and a III, pay is flexible
Skills:
Must-haves: Conceptual knowledge of engineering principles and practices Familiarity working in multi-disciplinary design and development teams Knowledge of requirements management, system design, and systems integration Exposure to planning, conducting and documenting Verification and Validation (V&V) activities Preferred: Experience with various testing equipment, standards, and methodologies to include manual and automated testing Ability to prepare complex and professional test plans, test procedures, and test reports in order to demonstrate compliance to system requirements Familiarity with Product and Quality Assurance principles and experienced in generation and disposition of product non-conformances Experience performing certification testing for various certification organizations (i.e. FAA, NASA, DoD) Ability to read schematics, use service manuals, follow test procedures, and use logical trouble shooting techniques Background in the Aerospace and Defense Industry
Responsibilities- Including, but not limited to:
- Participate in internal and external meetings and briefs.
- Generate presentation material and conduct presentations for internal and external program briefs
- Collaborate with other engineering disciplines and program stakeholders to develop test strategy for new programs.
- Draft and develop test plans and test procedures of various complexities, with specific test criteria
- Execute local and off-site testing in accordance with approved test plans and test procedures to evaluate or demonstrate functionality of components, sub-systems, mission systems and aircraft systems.
- Troubleshoot test anomalies discovered during test.
- Draft and develop test reports summarizing all test findings following conclusion of test.
Education:
Must-haves: Bachelor's of Science degree in Engineering or other related discipline and typically 2 or more years of experience
