TL;DR · Electrical Test Engineer

The Electrical Test Engineer joins the team to manage production test flows and ensure high-quality manufacturing standards for infrared systems. This role involves hands-on troubleshooting of complex hardware issues, developing automated software for data analytics and report generation, and creating detailed work instructions for technicians. The engineer will perform root cause analysis on non-conforming components, maintain and calibrate test equipment like power supplies and thermal chambers, and collaborate with design teams to improve product performance. Key technical requirements include proficiency in MATLAB and Python, experience with data acquisition, and knowledge of communication protocols such as USB, Ethernet, RS232, and CAN. The role focuses on the integration of electrical, opto-mechanical, and firmware systems while optimizing test strategies for efficiency across the manufacturing value stream to resolve critical defects in high-performance hardware.

What you'll do

  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex infrared systems issues identified during production testing.
  • Maintain test capabilities across the manufacturing value stream from system checkouts to component validation.
  • Develop software for test automation, data analytics, and automated report generation.
  • Perform root cause analysis on product failures and recommend corrective actions.
  • Create clear work instructions and train technicians on equipment usage.
  • Analyze test data and provide detailed reports to identify defects and improvement areas.
  • Optimize test strategies to increase efficiency and reduce testing time without compromising quality.
  • Maintain and calibrate test equipment to ensure precision and reliability during production.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Physics, Electrical/Electronics, Computer, Mechanical Engineering, or related fields.
  • 3+ years of relevant industry experience with emphasis on manufacturing test and product sustainment.
  • Experience with data acquisition and processing using MATLAB, Python, and other programming languages.
  • Experience with test automation and report generation.
  • Strong root cause analysis skills for non-conforming hardware, software, and firmware.
  • Experience working on projects involving the integration of electrical, opto-mechanical, and software/firmware systems.
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
  • Knowledge of infrared systems, cryogenic testing equipment, and common communication protocols (preferred).
