You will be joining a project team responsible for the development of test solutions and architectures for various programs for our client. Typical test development applications include analog/digital, RF, High Power, and embedded software/firmware design activities. Test architectures include a blend of customized and COTS Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), along with custom electro-mechanical holding fixtures and associated interface cabling and harnessing.

Engineers in this role will also have exposure to the full lifecycle development process - from the requirements definition phase of the test solution design process through the verification and final system sell-off in a production facility or field/depot environment.

·         Guide mechanical engineering and/or suppliers through test adapter design activities, with moderate support from senior engineers.

·         Work effectively within a team, or function as an individual contributor as needed, working autonomously with limited supervision

·         Engage in personal technical growth

·         Prepare and clearly present your work product at project status meetings

·         Support Manufacturing operations, including on-site troubleshooting and debugging

Qualifications You Must Have

·         Typically requires a Bachelor’s in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM)

·         Minimum of two (2) years of relevant engineering experience

·         Experience in electrical engineering design and/or software automation concepts and applications

·         Experience with decision-making and problem-solving skills

·         Experience working as a member of a team

·         Experience with National Instruments’ TestStand, LabWindows/CVI, and/or LabVIEW

·         Experience with Digital, Analog, RF, and/or Power Supply test hardware and/or software design

·         Experience with the routine use and/or automation of commercial test and measurement equipment, i.e. Oscilloscopes, DMMs, network analyzers, power supplies, etc.
