• Apply various acceleration models to reliability test design to accurately predict product lifetime under accelerated stress conditions

• Prepare concise, detailed test plans, analyze test reports, and provide updates on testing campaigns

• Guide engineering teams on failure modes, typical countermeasures for reliability failures, and design guidelines, providing risk analysis to inform design decisions

• Monitor field performance and identify trends in failure

• Experience deploying reliability testing guidelines and developing new testing methods

• Ability to use FEA software (e.g., Ansys Sherlock) for product life prediction in creation of reliability tests

The salary for this position ranges from $190,000 - $222,500 per year, depending on experience, qualifications, and location.
