The engineer is responsible for designing test systems, performing technical analysis, and ensuring product reliability, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with internal and external requirements.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to meet performance, cost, and quality objectives.
• Integrate quality and manufacturability into product and test system designs.
• Ensure compliance with applicable engineering practices, safety standards, and regulatory guidelines.
• Support continuous improvement methodologies (e.g., Kaizen, 5S) to promote efficiency and workplace organization.
• Communicate technical information effectively through reports, presentations, and documentation.
• Define, analyze, and translate product and test requirements to support development, sustainment, and R&D activities.
• Manage time and resources effectively to meet project schedules and cost constraints.
• Apply engineering judgment to plan and execute thorough, reliable development and testing processes.
• Diagnose and resolve technical challenges using structured problem-solving techniques and tools.
• Prepare and review technical documents including procedures, specifications, reports, and correspondence to meet project and customer requirements.
• Work independently while actively contributing to a team-oriented environment across engineering, operations, quality, and business functions.
• Design hardware and software for test systems, select and integrate equipment, and build automated test systems of low to medium complexity.
• Develop, code, and debug computer-based data acquisition systems for automated testing.
• Produce comprehensive design documentation for test systems (e.g., wiring diagrams, schematics, component lists) to ensure accurate replication and maintenance.
• Maintain configuration control and validation of all test hardware and software.
• Ensure test data is accurate, organized, and properly archived.
• Develop and execute test procedures based on product specifications; calculate equipment needs, test setups, and test limits.
• Identify and mitigate risks associated with unexpected or hazardous events during testing.
